Cocktail Mode

<< < (2/2)

Tilzs:
If you use advance mame, you can set a dipswitch flag (cocktail in this case) which will turn on the cocktail switch for all games that support that feature.

This is exactly what I was hoping for.  I have a vertical cocktail cabinet set up with AdvanceMAME and AdvanceMENU from a bit over a year ago.  I'm looking for documentation on this, but if you have any info that can point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it!

Spartan:
I wrote a  :tool: circa MAME .55 that parses the driver files and makes cocktail mode the default mode.

Well, I wrote it in C using lex & yacc and have since lost the source code, but it more or less still works.  Once the tool runs, you have to run 2 global search and replace regular expressions, but it does the trick (oh and remove the check in main that validates default dip switch settings)

Anyhow, once all of the drivers are changed, compile MAME and your cocktail table is off to the races!
