OK thanks for the clarification -- I'll be waiting for the CDR version then.  :cheers:

solderguy1:

Wouldn't it be fun to install this on a sheet of wood behind a real coin door before you sold a system.  Just think of the look on the buyer's face.

torez:

Now, if only this thing could return quarters.  Image pressing NovaGem button to give credit and then press another button to "return coin."  Kind of a "black box" principle.  Well, that would be one neat money maker. ;D

bfauska:

If you really missed the sound of coins dropping in you could maybe do a recorded sample of one and have the front end run that sound when you select a game, obviously it would only be when choosing a new game and not when actually coin-in happens, but it would still help with the nostalgia.  Or if there were a little application or special way to compile MAME to include a coin in sound when the credit button is pressed then it would be every time.  EVEN more cool would be to have several samples and run a random one when you inserted a credit.

I have a few of them on unlikely things.  One is on the side of a file cabinet under the color laser.  25 cents a copy!  ;D

This would be pretty simple for the folks who have already devised "key" listening software which uses hooks.  Maybe Ahofle will add a function to his mouse axis activated  volume control program to play a wav file when one the appropriate keypresses are sensed.
