How to Enter Ch. on PlayChoice?

(1/2) > >>

Fighting Fish:
Couple of newbie questions here:

1) How do I hit Enter to select the Channel, when loading a PlayersChoice Rom?

2) Is there a Test button?  A rom is asking me to hit the test button.

3) I am running Mame32.  Any benefits to using a different version?

Thanks, Fighting Fish

From the Mame FAQ:

I18. How do I start a PlayChoice-10 game?

The Playchoice-10 system was a multigame arcade machine. MAME emulates a Playchoice-10 with one game in it. However, the "channel select" menus and timer still are there in MAME. PC-10 games are timer-based, which means coins buy playing time, instead of a certain number of lives. Game ends when time is up, although you can reset, start and continue unlimited times, as long as you have time left). To start the game, do the following:

    (1) Run MAME with the PC-10 game you want to play (ex. "MAME PC_SMB3" would run Super Mario Bros 3, or "MAME PC_RCPAM" would run RC Pro-AM).

    (2) Insert a coin by pressing 5 to put some time on the timer (300 Units Per coin).

    (3) Press 0 to select channel one.

    (4) Press - to "Enter" the game.

    (5) Press 1 to select Options.

    (6) Press 2 to Start Game.

I would mention the ROM name which is asking you to press the test button so people can help you out.

My guess would be that if you enter the Mame configuration screen (TAB) then there might be some menu options somewhere in there which will perform a test.   Just a guess though, there is a good chance I am wrong.

Thanks HooPZ  :)

The rom that is asking for me to hit the TEST button is Gradius 4.

Hoopz:
What version of the rom are you running?  I tried mine and it won't launch.  I am at .119, I think.

Sorry, I can't be of any help on that one.
