Player 1 & 2 buttson
« on: July 24, 2014, 03:36:47 pm »
Hey guys and girls,

Just organising the artwork for my control panel on my cocktail cab (60-1 JAMMA).  I was wondering how many player 1 and 2 buttons do I use and on which player side?  do I use 1 x player 1 on one control panel and both player 1 and 2 on the other?  Player 1 on one cp and player 2 on the other?  What the best way to do it?

Thanks

John

Do you mean the start buttons?

Traditionally speaking they are both on player 1's side, but those 60-in-1 boards have games on them that aren't cocktail games, so I'm not sure tbh.

Yeah I mean the player 1 and 2 start buttons.  How has everyone set them out on control panel?

Well I already answered.  Again, if you are going by real machines, the old midway cocktail tables put them on player 1's side, mostly because while in attract mode their side was right-side-up.

Make sure you have a coin button or coin mech connected as a 60 in 1 will not function until you coin up

A 60in1 jamma board can be set to free play by going into the adjustment menu by enabling switch 4.
