Yes, it's a program.

No, you can't reprogram it because there is no source code available.

ask around the guys who have made the xbox coin operated, it should be the same way, 1 coin = 10 minutes, by using a timer to disable input, circuit wise.

There have been people over the ages interested into crafting mugen into "pirated" arcades to make money,which is not only highly immoral as wrong.
Some people already do that with emulators,creating arcades out of mame.
That is what "running mugen coin operated" reminds people of.

But it´s not better just do a arcade cabinet without coin deposit, configure the joysticks and go play?It´s for private use anyway...

I think you could make a cabinet that upon receiving the coin activates the joysticks.

Well... i don't know if i should post this, but since the topic came....

there is this guy in MGBR, who was able to run MUGEN on Arcade boards

http://forum.mgbr.net/index.php?showtopic=50738

you tube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpNrjrWyfHE


according to him, he plans to do a PC version. and no, he did not post any info on how it works, or how he had done it.
Title: Re: Is there a way to make a coin deposit button to mugen?
Post by: Bastard Mami on December 14, 2007, 12:55:23 am
it depends on what you do consider an arcade board. most of the ones i have seen lately are pcs runing linux.

well, the guy did mention that graphics run at 15hz, the game does forces Windows to go 640X480 and Alt+tab does not work when trying to run his version on a regular PC.

here is where you can get more info on it

man...why do you have to be such an asswhole? all the kid wants is to have his mugen coin operated just like in mame. whats the big deal in helping him do it. wither his intentions are to sell the game or just for his personal use, who cares. hes asking for help, if you dont want to give it to him then dont post.

The knowledge of how won't get him anywhere provided the first condition fails and I also waste my time as it is quite lengthy to only do within Mugen itself.

tnx MirageAtoli,

this helped me a lot. now, i have more options how to do the coin SLUTS.

thanks again ;D

14 years later I have 2 possible solutions for you


I hope that you can read me today



Ok the first way is to use mugen 1.1 with MugenHook by ermannaccer and a custom frontend for playing the loop (I suggest using multimedia fusion in principal or the way with Game Maker Studio) and use the next loop

First make a mugen system def with all modes desactivated, this will give you the bucle or loop of intro and demos

then make a mugen system def with only arcade mode name in system def

when you have your two system def modificated with two names, we can begin with the frontend desing



Step 1: be sure that in mugen.cfg you only have full screen mode, this is a trick for mimicking a classic arcade operator

Step 3: make a shortcuf file of your principal mugen file, example: mugen.exe , but remember, make a shortcut file

4.-go inside the propierties of your shortcut and in the shortcut browser look for tag or destiny line "where is specificated the location" and in the first location line add quotes and add the command: -r,, specifically -r <sysfile> , so you will make 2 versions of your mugen exe with the specified system def parameter loaded

 example: C:\Users\AUSERPC\Downloads\No_limit_Winmugen_patch \No_limit_Winmugen_patch\Winmugen.exe -r  <systemattractmode.def>
example: C:\Users\AUSERPC\Downloads\No_limit_Winmugen_patch \No_limit_Winmugen_patch\Winmugen.exe -r  <systemonlyarcademode.def>


Step 4: in your frontend put a button that simulate escape button, so the idea is that the bucle/loop of intro and demo fight still excecuting until push button, so the first mugen will close and open the another mugen with arcade mode (to this point is very important that you have the mogenhook latest version cuz that can make that your second player joins during the match)

Step 5: so if anything goes right, after closing the mugen with attract mode the only arcade mugen mode (I really really recommend you replace in your system.def file the arcade mode name to press start or push p1 or p2 button like classic arcades)


Benefits:

- The player that begins is the player that ends, for example if you push 2nd Player button you will play always as second player in the side of second player

-MIDI Music (If you are trying to mimic a arcade is important to mimicing the hardware, is art and the art is important in the mind of players) (with loopmidi and falcosoft you can give a ride of a cps2 like music machine with the available soundfonts)


Contras:

 - NO CONTINUE SCREEN CREDIT MANAGEMENT (Only Available in ikemen)
- NO BOSS CUTSCENES (forget the impressive krizalid or KOF cutscenes previous to boss fights, only available in ikemen)
 









The second Way is using Ikemen Go plus, with the attract mode and credit feature inbuilt, continue with credit counter and boss cutscenes


the contras or bad things about ikemen go

If you begin with second player or continue with second player you ALWAYS BEGIN in Player 1 side, wherever you continue after defeating player character one or starting the arcade mode
NO MIDI MUSIC
NO MIDI PORT
NO SOUNDFONT





So there is the way that you can use  a silly chuking CHILLI PESOS or CHILE PESOS
