    Great, thorough video! Thanks for the suggestions on the disconnects and daisy-chaining the coin door to the credit button; I was thinking of connecting mine to the coin screw on the controller, but I like the button idea. Thanks again! Btw, how do you make/print all the art for your cabinets? Love the designs!

      Thanks my guy 🤘 I make the artwork on photoahol and then I use gulf coast decals to print them out. They're an awsome company and I always use them for my vinyl prints

    How do you choose 1 or two players if buttons up top get disconnected when at pizza shop

    • @Vic_VP
      @Vic_VP  2 года назад

      The coin buttons up top are linked to the coin door. I simply remove the micro switch from the coin buttons up top.
      P1 and p2 start is not the same as p1 and p2 coin

    Can you hook the coin door ground to any buttons ground? I'm installing this same coin door to a RoomMasters Xtension 4 Player Control Board Ultimate Edition. The new RRM coin door wiring doesn't tell you where to run the wires to once you get your joystick set up. I assume the left and right coin door wires go to the coins 1 and 2 buttons, but where does the ground wire go? Do I just run the ground wire onto one of the ground wires on the buttons?

    Do you know to attach or can attach a dollar bill acceptor to an arcade system (mame) raspberry pi, PC.

      You need something that will send a pulse 4x basically to the coin input. It's doable

    I'm using a raspberry pi 4 I hooked my coin door up. but the only problem is the buttons on top work. what's the point of the coin acceptor. if you can just press a button. I tried an on off switch. but it doesn't allow you to exit a game any suggestions thank you

    • @Vic_VP
      @Vic_VP  2 года назад

      Most people do it for nostalgia reasons, but it's also useful for retail commercial spaces... not really great for raspi pi
      For pi builds I assign the hotkey to something other than select
      Only way an one and off switch will work is if you are setting the switch to cut the ground connection of that specific button

    does it only accept certain coins or can be programed to use other coins? I live in the U.K and wonder if it would work for the U.K coins.

      You'd prob can swap the coin mech or grab a Chinese coin slot thing where you put the coin you want to use in a slot

    Is there any 9 credit limit on Pandora 3D? Games does not show more than 9 credits, even after putting more coins.

    • @Vic_VP
      @Vic_VP  2 года назад +1

      Yes that's based on the arcade game itself. Like sf2 doesn't do more than 6 credit I belive. That's not a pandora issue, that's just how they arcade game is programmed

      Daisy chain. You gotta basically branch out from 1 wire to 2 wires

      @TheRellic 2 года назад

      All right that makes sense I mean I’m kind of a visual I mean if you can find a direction to point me in I know they’re not polarity sensitive but I wanna make sure I wire it up correctly I want to do it for both player one and player twos select button aswell

    • @Vic_VP
      @Vic_VP  2 года назад

      I'm not by a coin door but its a wore that is going from your beginning input and then split outwards. Just like how a negative ground daisy chain looks... but with 1 long wire instead of a 2 inch wire

    Useful, thanks. I am in an identical situation. Wanted two of the x-arcade double entry doors for a 4 player cab. (For the love of god, AVOID x-arcade) That company is clearly going to collapse as it never has anything in stock, and takes them "6 MONTHS" to reorder anything. Most incompetent arcade parts company on earth currently. Sadly they are the ONLY company with a plug and play coin door option. (Other companies need to fix that.) So gameroom solutions was option number 2. They had a single 4 player coin door for sale, but it has zero wiring, and ancient incandescent 14v bulbs for the lighting. So that will have to be either removed or replaced to make work with modern cabs.

      Sad to hear xarcade still have stock issues. Ever since covid and that big water canal closure that stopped a bunch of boat freighters that had there stock... they just can't seem to keep up
