LEDBlinky issues freezes in CoinOps
« on: June 06, 2026, 03:30:30 pm »
I just got a Ultimarc Pac Drive board and set up LEDBlinky (trial version for now)  When CoinOps starts the buttons light up and animate for a few seconds, then freeze. If I launch a game though, the buttons used will light up correctly. Exiting out of the game the same stuck buttons light up in CoinOps FE. If I exit CoinOps I get an error from LEDBlinky.

Any idea how to fix this?

I don’t use coin oips I use aattrack mode, had the same issue you did. Is your mame.cfg in the proper location? I’m sure there must be a way to set your file and folder location pointing to the files you need.

   For example, I need 3 files, a attractmode.cfg, Mame.cfg, and a Mame.xml for mine to work properly.

ok so update, after removing the CoinOps settings, and only using the FE settings, it will run without freezing, and still uses MAME button mapping when game starts. The issue I'm seeing now, is when CoinOps switches games during attract mode, the buttons turn off. If I manually change the game using the joystick the button animation starts up again. The other settings appear to not work in trial mode so not sure if that is something I need the full version to have working?  Don't mind buying the software just want to make sure it works completely.
