small update fyi for you bp, updated and cleaned up coinops spreadsheet so now its fixed again as someone had went into it and messed around with everything.

 

Sorry to hear BP went through that too. Somebody did that to my spreadsheets so I had to cut them off from the public. I've only been sharing them with people working on the project with me now.

 

Nice thing is, Google does a pretty good job allowing you to go back to a previous version if somebody is a jag like that.

 

Excited to try your new release BP. I've had my hands full so I haven't given it a shot yet.

 

Take it easy,

Hey I have a quick question - first off, CoinOps is great, as always.

My question is this - I just got CoinOps Gold. I tried to play NBA Hangtime with four players, and was only able to get two controllers to register (even though it's under the "Four Players" section).

So I pressed BACK and WHITE to get to Game Settings and was able to change it to a "4 Player Cabinet" and then the controllers worked. Great!

 

My question is: The game I would play the most are The Simpsons, TMNT, TMNT 2, X-Men, etc. All four player games. I went to play the Simpsons today and it wouldn't read more than two controllers. I figured I could fix this the same way, but when I pressed BACK and WHITE in-game, it didn't have the option "Game Settings" so I couldn't change it.

I also noticed that Simpsons was listed under the "Two Players" section.

 

So my question is basically, how do I make the Simpsons arcade four player? And hopefully, for any other games - Xmen, TMNT, etc (which I haven't checked yet) will it be the same process?

you need to download the 4 player version of the roms,coinops usually comes with 2 player versions depending on what has been requested so just download the 4 player version scan for new roms and your good to go.

Thanks very much! I really hope that works. All the previous versions of Coinops I downloaded had the four player versions and I still have those versions. I'll throw them in and see if it all works out.

Thanks again!

that is a corrected build...... your using :) everything should be great in that build including dats etc its a pity the release for it was messed up in the next build id recommend people make a effort on another thread to get together and get it happening correctly. As I wont be doing it :huh:

 

Drop me a line on MSN BP when the next release is ready and I will upload it to as many places as I can. There will be no more confusion from now on as to which version is the 'proper' one.

 

Appreciated as always.

You should nominate 2 or 3 trustworthy people to spread your releases like gavin19 and RastanX.

I suggest a separate thread once again where you guys sort this side out :) I dont deal with my build changes every 2nd day or so. Sorry but its continously changing as I develop and at a time I decide to put in all the non beta stuff and give it to someone......

Okay so I added the four player games that weren't there (TMNT, Simpsons, etc) and they all worked fine. Thanks very much for that!

But when I went to play NBA Hangtime with four players, it lagged incredibly, to the point where it was unplayable

If it helps, when I go to Game Settings (in-game) these are the settings:

Test Switch: Off

Powerup Test: Off

Bill Validator: Off

Cabinet: 4-player

Counters: One, 1/1

Country: USA

Coinage: 1

Coinage Source: CMOS

 

I changed it back to a "2-player" cabinet and it lags just as poorly.

 

Can anyone tell me how to make four players playable, or at least get two player-mode back?

Thanks

NBA Hangtime is a Midway game which is known to struggle, along with the likes of Mortal Kombat. The only solution at the minute is to disable sound.

 

Does the 2-player version perform any better?
