Title: TMNT continue credits
Post by: notbillcosby on October 16, 2013, 09:18:00 pm
I'm working on a 4 player TMNT cab that's is charging 1 coin to start and two to continue. I'd like it to be one quarter all the time. I can't find anything online about dip switches controlling credits upon continues... Any ideas?

Man, my buddies and myself pumped sooo much money into that damn game back in the day.  Spent an entire summer at Peter Piper Pizza, buddy worked there so we got discounts on pizza.  We would have killed for dip switch access.  As it is, we probably put the owner's kid through college entirely on quarters.

I've seen that list of DIP switches, but I don't see anything that says anything about continues specifically. Unless I'm reading it incorrectly, it just lets you choose how many credits one coin (or multiple coins) gives you.

That page notes the default settings for the game (noted with an 'o' at the beginning of the line). Compare your own settings with that in the manual. If they differ, make note of what they are and change the appropriate switches to default. See if the behavior changes.

@yotsuya - I lived in Prescott at the time.  Only one in town.  :)  Not even sure if that one is still there though.

I was in Prescott a few weeks ago. Hell, there might be two there now.  :cheers:
