I'd like to have the part number. :P --- End quote --- If you don't have it by this Friday, PM me. I have a couple of these at home and can look for you this Friday or Saturday. |

I know multi-game JAMMA boards also effectively use a custom FE and hardware that supports retaining a universal credit system as part of the FE, but at least that doesn't incriminate any popular FE developer (though it does the MAME project of course). However, if this function has been built in by the HS team for major distribution to home users they may be leaving themselves wide open, as creating an openly available 'pay per play' feature to the FE means anyone who downloads the software could start knocking out direct revenue-earning MAME based cabinets - is this correct? :dunno |

hmm i dont understand is'nt it already possible to use mame for monetary gain? not in such a nice pretty format with selectable games, but it seems to me already be possible going with a single game unless someone see's the boot up they'ed have no way of knowing. has there been any cases of anyone using mame in such a way? it's against mame policy not to mention illegal? can't really see someone going thought the trouble really.. anything that mame can emulate 95%+ is either no longer a money maker or cheaper to buy the real board.. all the newer games that might actually bring in some money run like crap unless you have a wizbang 4ghz+ system and still they're not emulated fully. |
