Title: MAMEUIFX WITH LCD & LED SCREENS
Post by: Netcat on May 22, 2014, 02:21:25 pm

Years ago Mr. Carlos Santillon was kind enough to allow me to persuade him to modify ArcadeOS to support 2 serial outputs (on playing a game) that would send the TITLE of the game to a betabrite LED Screen and button joystick instructions to a little LCD screen.

If anyone knows whom is incharge of compiling either MameUI or MameUIFX, can you please hit me up with a message, I would love to se emy arcade Machine implementing such features once again after so many years

Not what you asked for, but FYI Mala supports serial displays.

Will it support 2 at the same time ?

I'm down with any program that already has the functionality built in

Mamehooker also has serial functionality, although you'll have to do things manually.
