Answer to question 1: no Answer to question 2: no Answer to question 3: no I need to rebuild my romset then try again might take me a while got lots of files to try and find update: using the set from r share all is well now answr to 1 is yes answr to 2 is yes answr to 3 is no a big thnx to all you kind ppl who've helped me got there at last

Ok so now I have no hope, could only get ahold of mame set 0.128 (0.84 may be out there but I sure can't find it!) that was the set i originally used to build my romset (using the DAT provided) effectively rolling the set back (having to find missing drivers etc from the net.) now it turns out the DATs are no good? Does anyone know/have an idea on how to get this remotely close to being sorted? has anyone managed please share your story of success!! throw me a frickin bone here! lol if this is all because someone shared the BETA seems a bit silly to me.... I think a full release on a torrent site by one of BP's close and trusted allies would have been the best thing - we could all have supported it via seeding and it would be available to everyone - no need to sign up to silly BITGAMER, no need to spend pennies on RAPIDSHARE (to get stung by a download limit aargh.) Anyhow just an idea

I think the problem is definately rom related my set needs work on it so those 3 questions probably didn't apply to me. laters chaps take care! additional: just purchased 30 days of rapidshare since bitgamer seems to have trailed off so hopefully will get a set from there thanks to another kind mamer providing me the links. If anyone else wants a piece of the action PM me, not sure if it is BP's super duper version but willing to help anyone who might be stuck.

Same MD5 on both files, grabbed from Bitgamer. default.xbe: 18A1C7515581ADC2DC391B4452F50E77 memeox.xbe: 50928766670762F96278D4FDB154DEF7 mine was from rapidshare - same as bitgamer...

good idea! that would be easy to check! (unless the file has been changed and not saved on BP's machine

The plot thickens! oh dear - well I got the standalone rapidshare link from gavin19 (cheers gav!) that had screenshots for 1010 games (v nice too!) I was just going to get the other games from the bitgamer torrent then add them to the standalone. Am at work now will try what you suggested and let you know tonight!

Excellent I got the proper stuff through bitgamer after all it just didn't like my email address - mustn't like yahoo worked fine with google mail. A hearty thank you to all involved looking forwad to even greater heights of MAME emulation once this is done! B P (or should it be B S????) well done for being so organised and dedicated to this! a truly spectacular ode to the games of old they will live on for a while longer..... p.s. wow this bitgamer is so fast its scorching my modem! sorry bitgamer all is forgiven!!

I anyone else having trouble signing up to this? I tried twice with 2 email addresses its been 24 hrs and no reply! starting to thing this bitgamer is just an excuse to get my addresses to add to a spam list! Has anyone else managed to sign up? yeah I was using Y Mail, if there is only 1 seed don't think i'll bother - cheers for the info tho (I already got like 2700 feel greedy for trying harder oh well.)

Oh yeah, you're right that is in fact really interesting - and also relevant. Man, thank you so much

P.s. Eurasia facts? wtf? thats a bit random to say the least!

Hey all, So there's a full version of the release available somewhere? exciting news; if you are also a nerd Could someone please hand me a sip of the holy grail and pm me with details on where to obtain the 4gb behemoth of arcading pleasuring aka the coinops Gold full release? I see there has been one tantalising attempt already on the main boards - unfortunately that has ben quickly shot down - I bet a few others wish they had caught it in time also. Will edit to say I have the link if others wish to pm me after this for their sip or the golden nectar. Apologies for the madness its been a long day at work and the amount of effort that has gone into this is slightly humbling! Kerplau!

Cool, so do you go off the title in the games list? or do you need to use the name of the rom file?

Thought it might be handy to put some instructions on how to do stuff in coinops+/gold here: In Game Controls ------------------ Cancel - BACK and START On screen display - BACK and Right Analog button Toggle Crosshair - BACK and Left Analog button UI Configure - BACK and White button Pause - BACK and Black button Reset ROM - BACK, Left and Right triggers ******* Load State - BACK, Right Analog button, and Left trigger ******* Save State - BACK, Right Analog button, and Right trigger Save Screenshot - BACK, A button, and B button This bit is for people googling how to do stuff in coinops ((how to save game savegame screenshot coinops+ coinops gold pause load reset configure toggle)) - (should help people looking for instructions) Coinops GOLD = class!!!

Hi, Thanks for the Beta!! I have been using FBA, mameox platinum, mameox 128 but since I found coinops I have been using that all the time. Now I am using coinops GOLD have no plans to use anything else. I found out of my ROM set I managed to get like 2700 games working with coinops+ and gold which is many many more than before.... I especially liked the inclusion of the DATs as this is what got me going. Looking forward to finding out how to add screenshots and how to link them to the games in the list! Coinops is class a total window into a forgotten past, I love finding new games to play but they are so hard! Discovered a souped up version of Golden Axe 2 that I didn't know existed until last night but it is a bit messed up, the sprites seem to have lost perspective and you get some interesting vertical scrolling anomalies but I guess this is a driver issue and so hopefully may be fixed later on the great emulation journey.... Fanatstic game tho, great characters sizzling effects and bad guys lie around dead as a testament to your violent nature - cool Is there anything in particular I should look out for during testing? just games that don't work or anything else? More games tonight.....

cool, I hope the release is soon im really looking forward to it How will I know when its out will you be making an announcement?

Hey Britneyspairs, Great work on coinops+ thanks for many nights playing great games with friends. It totally rocks! I've also been following these threads over the past few months was wondering if I could help out at all with the testing of coinops gold? it would be both a pleasure and an honour! hmm can't get the pm thing to work so if you could use my card to send me an email please BP would be most grateful!
