Altering the tone used when coin inserted in MAME
« on: August 28, 2011, 10:29:37 pm »
I'd love to change the coin up tone to an actual recording of a coin going through a coin mech, since my new bartop cant have actual coin mechs.

I've compiled the source and looked at a few parts of the code before, so I'm not starting from complete scratch here. 

Just wondering if anyone has done anything similar, or could point me in the write direction.

That is probably emulated per game, or at least per driver, so I don't think I would try to go that route. It would probably be a lot easier to play a sound through the front end when the coin switch is triggered.
