CoinDrop v1.3 By Headkaze ========================= -= DESCRIPTION =- This program will allow you to send coin drops to Mame from within your front-end. It runs in the background using a very small amount of CPU. When it detects a coin drop it will play a sound effect and store the amount of coins in memory. When you start Mame you can press the start keys and a credit is automatically registerd and starts the game. Dropping coins outside of Mame means you can carry over credits to multiple games. -= FAQ =- 1. How do I set this thing up on my cab? Just extract the folder to somewhere on your machine and create a link to CoinDrop.exe on bootup. 2. Where can I change the key settings? Just open CoinDrop.ini in notepad and follow the instructions. -= VERSION HISTORY =- Version 1.3 (13-01-2006) : Now you can carry over credits inserted in Mame Version 1.2 (12-01-2006) : WhiteList/BlackList added. Now you can say when coindrop is allowed to register credits Version 1.1 (25-12-2005) : You now press the Start keys to drop coins and can now carry on credits to multiple games. Version 1.0 (24-12-2005) : First Release ----------------------------------------------- TERMS OF USE: This program is illegal to use in a commercial setting. If this program is found on a machine in a commericial environment you will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Download Removed This download has been removed. To get a copy you must IM me with a link to your project page. |

Downloaded! :) Even though I don't have a cab, would be cool to use later. Only thing, I know Atomic removed this functionality for some reason, does this break some MAME license/whatever thing? Wasn't sure...just curious. I personally think it's a great idea! |

TERRIBLE IDEA... http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=31713.0 Funny thing about terrible ideas about functionality: That typically means that someone has an opinion. Which typically means that someone has a difference of opinion. Which means that the idea is probably good to provide as an option, so if someone doesn't like it, they just don't download it. However, I'd be very interested in understanding WHY you think it's a terrible idea without having to go through that entire thread. Any summary? --- End quote --- |
