its easy to code, just mame has alot of stuff to take into consideration also the screensizing code is completely different than exports as there is many screensizes(lots and lots and lots of different ones) and there is only one in xport emus

This build will put everyone onto the final GUI settings ive reached the point where im really happy with everything at last GUI wise... ill only be adding drivers and a few little hidden options for one off requests people seem to want. All packs from me will only operate from reignite as I need all its options (PS please note maybe something will change these thoughts and a total overhaul will happen one never knows) It will be CoinOPS reignite R1 R2 R3...... from now on I dont think it will ever be rebranded patches with new drivers should contain the new extras...video pics etc Total Settings revamp Rebranding New Hot and Classic games New FAQ Extra tiding From now on if people want to know about Tdata Udata or video support or music support or commandline support or hidden settings (now gone in reingite) etc tell the to use reignite it has everything...that stuff varied alot in ignite build to build Take care guys PS Just finished testing "CoinOPS reignite SHOWCASE"(4.5gig) all is good and I must say it looks great..... now a few days and ill have "CoinOPS reignite SHOWCASE PLUS"(8.5gig)

PM sent fum

30mins ill pm you fum

no xy position as it to isnt as easy as one would think....... ill discuss the issues that you havent addressed as well with your saves and ill think about it later the issue is 720p and also NTSC and PAL have diff amounts of pixels

Standalone is out in the wild

ok ive assembled my first disc CoinOPS reignite Showcase (will be 4.5gigs with 350games on it) ill test these over the next day or so then ill make CoinOPS reignite Showcase+ (will be 8.5 gigs with 750games on it) can choose one.... I that suits you. I have 1000 videos linked to builds but I have no real way to get this stuff out, no badwidth speed (15k) and only 10gigs a month for net usage. ill think about how I can

I havent put in skin rotation.........after this package im finished with my features ill add some patchs for people. Skin rotation is more complexed than I thought though now as the code for rotation has been altered alot so ill have to think about it when I get around to it. Cant fix it in 2 secs as I tried

OK im handing out BETA tests to people that know what they are doing..... please ask me for it and dont be offended if you dont get one. Bare in mind you will need to know about random game selections, autofire, vm, extra paths as this stuff needs testing due to every setting getting a revamp. Also there is no more hidden settings

I have done....... a few games but its a hard task wish I had a mame person to help with that stuff

its optmised for CPS2 is my only use for it....... a few CPS2 games lag in some stages

might release my build of that....havent thought about it at present ill offer another poll maybe, it will be up to the people then they wanted more of CoinOPS. Ive discovered I cant achieve a few things I wanted as the CPU on xbox isnt good enough to just port stuff you need an expert on mame to achieve so speedups (like boogie wings, cps2, midway all are working fine but just off speed wise)

Entering bugbash now...in BETA Standalone will be out next week

Total Settings overhaul COMPLETED Rebranding COMPLETED its a new start for CoinOPS as from now on video is a key player (and old versions dont support it)

Noooooooo driver questions for this build......its the last GUI build for me and its a total change and lockdown to the GUI, this will require a rebadge as CoinOPS wont support videos etc packs

no idea it supports SMB paths

they look better in hd on 480p unless its reskinned.... someone can release a full sd pack of videos / I have them on my desktop and they are 4.5 gigs but I dont have bandwidth or speed to give them to people so ill only be working on my builds in high quality

that wont happen its easy to skin it that way.....although it will have complete screenshot pack it will all have a complete hd video pack and it looks alot better with videos

It will be CoinOPS reignite R1 R2 R3...... from now on Total Settings revamp Rebranding New Hot and Classic games New FAQ Extra tiding From now on if people want to know about Tdata Udata or video support or music support or commandline support or hidden settings (now gone in reingite) etc tell the to use reignite it has everything...that stuff varied alot in ignite build to build Peace ----------------------- FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ----------------------- Q - How do I scan my games A - Press START on the games selection page and select Scan All Your Games Note - Advanced Settings needs to be ENABLED in the settings page Q - How do I exit a game A - Press START+BACK while playing a game this will take you back to the games selection page Q - How do I enable Autofire A - Left Thumb Button - Enable Semi-Automatic fire Right Thumb Button - Enable Autofire ( Pressing fire can charge your weapons ) BACK - Quickly Disable Autofire Q - How do I access Settings A - Press START on the games selection page and select Settings Q - How do I adjust the screensize.

Enter the ingame menu, "remap gamepad", and map one or several keys as THROTTLE. (You can map your THROTTLE as back+X+B ) Example: If you think Dodonpachi (58 fps) isn't that smooth, call the THROTTLE function by pressing the keys remapped. THROTTLE will be disabled (because enabled by default) This will force the game to run at 60 fps (60/58 fps): a small speedup but a smoother animation. Throttle can also be used for 55 fps games (Midnight Resistance...) but the sound can glitch a bit (speedup). Some older 61 fps Namco games are smooth with THROTTLE disabled and Frameskip 0 (Rolling thunder 1,2...) If you want to know what the original framerate is for the games, press BACK+BLACK (default setting) ----------------------- CPU OVERCLOCK ----------------------- This can be very useful for some games with slowdowns. To call the function press BACK+RIGHT THUMB, (the sound volume setting appears) Go up or down a few times and check the CPU0, CPU1... overclock settings. Examples (for 480p) -BioMechanical toys has small slowdowns, Set the CPU0 to 125% = smooth animation. -Double Dragon (original beat'em up) runs slowly: set the CPU0 and CPU1 to 150% = nice speed. Don't overclock the games that can't reach their original framerate (ex: 52/60 fps, 36/57 fps), the emu will be slower. Overclock only the games running at full framerate ! Biomechanical toys runs at 60/60 fps and Double Dragon runs at 57/57 fps, so the values for CPU can have a higher setting. We can also decrease the values: -To get a better anim in Darius Gaiden (or some other Taito), keep CPU0 at 100%, and set the CPU1 (sound CPU) to 50%. ----------------------- CONFIGS ----------------------- A member wanted a config for CPS2 games (some Capcom games use LPunch+MPunch+HPunch, same for Kicks) If for example LPunch=LTrigger, MPunch=X, HPunch=Y and you want a shortcut for furies on WHITE BUTTON then "remap the game" this way: P1 Button 1 = J1_LTrigger or J1_White P1 Button 2 = J1_X or J1_White P1 Button 3 = J1_Y or J1_White Pressing White will call the 3 Punch Buttons ! ----------------------- FAST FORWARD ----------------------- Sometimes it's boring to wait for a long time when a game is launched: memory tests, rom/ram tests, etc... I personally use a fast forward function: just change the frameskip ingame. My default Frameskip is AUTO. I have remapped Frameskip Dec as L_Trigger R_Trigger X (FS decrease: Auto - 11 - 10 - 9 ... 3 - 2 - 1 - 0 - Auto ...) and Frameskip Inc as L_Trigger R_trigger Y (FS increase: Auto - 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 ... 9 - 10 - 11 - Auto ...) When a game is just launched I Press LTrigger+RTrigger+X to run the game very fast (Frameskip 11). To return to Frameskip Auto (normal speed) when the arcade tests are finished I Press LTrigger+RTrigger+Y. This way I don't wait for the long rom/ram tests. (Just press the keys one time, or you can get lost as the Frameskip value isn't shown anymore ingame). ----------------------- SERVICE MODES ----------------------- Some players like to have a Freeplay (no coin) or an easy setting for the games, but no DIP switches ? All the games have a service mode NEOGEO, CPS1, CPS2, SEGA, MIDWAY, CAVE, NAMCO. Remapping function in "Remap This Game" will help. NEOGEO: Just remap the TEST SWITCH with the keys you want, and press thoses keys ingame: entering service mode. CPS1 & CPS2: Just remap the SERVICE MODE for the same results. SEGA 32: (outrunner, Golden Axe2, Arabian Fight, Spiderman...) Remap the SERVICE MODE and the SERVICE 1: SERVICE MODE will enter the settings and valid a choice SERVICE 1 will allow to switch between the different options. MIDWAY: Remap the TEST (or use the option: ingame menu/game settings/Test Switch ON/OFF). NAMCO: Remap the SERVICE MODE (or use the option similar to Midway's). CAVE: (Esprade, DoDonpachi) Remap the SERVICE MODE and press the keys during 2 or 3 seconds. Be careful ! Sometimes with some manufacturers you must reset the game (LTrigger+RTrigger+BACK) after you pressed the service keys to be able to enter the arcade settings ! ! ! PS: it's unfortunate but set the biggest schumps to EASY to get less bullets on screen and limit the slowdowns ----------------------- GUN GAMES ----------------------- Playing a lightgun game like Lethal Enforcers 2 with the pad can be hard because we must reload by shooting outside the screen. For this kind of games, enter the cheat menu and available the unlimited ammo setting. Same for Underfire. The crosshair isn't shown ingame but it's playable with unlimited ammo as we can see where we've just shot. Disable the Crosshair (BACK+LEFT+THUMB) will help in Beast Busters. ----------------------- MULTI SCREENS GAMES (Darius 1, Darius 2, The Ninjawarriors, Warrior Blade) ----------------------- Disable the Widescreen setting for horizontal Games, and the games will play at fullscreen. 16/9 users will get the best results. Purists can also set a special "screensize adjustment" to get a suitable aspect ratio.

back should exit any of the menus and return to the games list. in the games list it will change the sort method. To exit a game press "start+back"

rom upgrade.... it will only be a massive rom downgrade...stick with r5 as this is only prettying things up alot...also CoinOPS gold release has over 200 changes from my build rom wise

not with me no........ we have tried a few times but we work alot differently. Ive completed a 1000 top games video and GF leaves on friday ill do a package then. Maybe he will do one day but I actually had a low def one 2 days after I finished R4 and decided in HD and even in Low def thy would look better in HD(or reskin it for Low Def videos) I decided HD videos looked great and 2 weeks later I had the HD 800 top games done...if I had more bandwisth I would have had it done in lot less time. Anyway the 800 games pack is 9gigs and I have to fix a couple more videos. Im unsure in what state or how ill release the new build but ill post stuff about it on Friday. I cant really work with RX that much I have tried a few times sorry but PCeSlayer had them all sorted in a day in low def and a few days later all HD ones where converted so thanks to him and his timely work I will have more time soon to reliase the potential of what hes done. I hope sometime others will do stuff as they have promised time and time again but I will continue to work ahead with or with them for now.

yes it will be slowish for more advanced features.....

hehe I know of 100s of bugs in mameox that have been fixed

disable 1080i and give it a go maybe it sensing it can go to that res and dropping out of 720p
