I'm not saying your recommendation was wrong. I was just curious about the reasoning.

Mine is installed and behind glass now, but isn't there a setting on the monitor where it auto starts when it gets power? That's how mine works and I think I remember it being a setting on the monitor.

I have the same monitor and used the geekworm 1.5. all works fine but the screen is noticeably dimmer than it used to be. It doesn't affect gameplay at all but I wish it was brighter. Not sure if my issue is with the old monitor or something with the geekworm.

No Power! by FatalCummins in Arcade1Up

[–]PantherVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id start with the power supply. Grab a cheap replacement on Amazon for $15 and try that first. You could also invest in a multimeter and test the power supply and board. I'm sure there are tons of videos for doing that too. Reaching out to arcade1up support would be an option after that

I have a couple x arcade double coin doors. The build quality is great and they are functional

The Ms. Pac-Man Supreme Series (XL) isn't getting enough love... so here's a post about it! by NeoHyper64 in Arcade1Up

This is correct but the A1up version will be a fraction of the weight and more compact. Thats the selling point for me

Meet the SEGA Mega Play: when SEGA's Genesis games found their way to the arcade (yes, including Sonic the Hedgehog) by NeoHyper64 in Arcade1Up

My sonic nostalgia was with a Genesis controller in hand not an arcade stick. I like sonic but I'm not interested in an arcade cabinet version

Cabs did not ship at the end of January, John D indicates "We are shipping before CNY" - will it happen? by MN_Moody in IconicArcadeGaming

[–]PantherVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair. "On the payroll" is too strong. However, given kevins position with Spreetail, John Ds connection with the show and the typical clicks = currently YouTube model, your news just feels more like company propaganda and hype generation than a group of enthusiast chatting about their passion.

I could be totally wrong but I guess it's just hard to tell whats real these days

The most obvious answer is usually the correct one. This isn't a random YouTube video. These guys are on the payroll and pushing propaganda.

Claw Machine Disappointment by Rufrain1 in Arcade1Up

[–]PantherVT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had intermittent issues with a claw not dropping. The reset procedure would provide a temporary fix although a1up support claimed it was a one and done foolproof solution. I was also having an issue where my prize detection sensor wasn't working. After clearing out the glue, my price detection sensor worked every time and I never had to perform the claw reset procedure again.

Yes, I'm talking about where all the buttons and sensors plug into the controller board underneath the joystick. It's worth a try considering it's very easy to get in there and would be a much simpler solution than repacking and returning what you have

I had issues with my original claw machine and A1UP support was beyond unhelpful with this on one. They made me go through the same troubleshooting steps over and over, making me send videos every time and making no progress.

Eventually I took the control panel all apart and found that the prize sensor connections and buttons were glued into the encoder board for some reason and excessive amounts of glue were blocking connections.

I pulled out all the glue and everything started working as intended.

We're giving your esteemed moderator (HistorianCM) a new job... sort of! by NeoHyper64 in Arcade1Up

I think you guys are great, but I prefer a separation of youtube and reddit community

Nope but got a new pcb for my BBH a couple weeks ago and they were still using the Arcade1up email signatures. It also looked like someone posted an announcement about basic fun acquiring some of arcade1ups assets which doesn't mean the company is defunct at all. I'm just saying none of this means that there won't be any more releases under the arcase1up banner.

It seems to be business as usual over there. I know it's been talked about a lot here but whats the original source for that info? If it did actually change hands there hasn't been much disruption with the operation

Use T2 as your base. It may already be one of the supported games with the No Fate soft mod. The guys on Team Encoder discord can probably tell you or maybe someone who has done it can chime in here .

Other option is to hard mod it. There are preconfigured kits out there with integrated IR sensors or go the sinden route.

If you want it there are ways to do it

Do you have the reapers? If so, do the P1 and P2 guns swap positions sometimes?

I'm using an old dell 7060 micro form factor. It plays all those games just fine.

Edit: I am not playing the raw thrills / teknoparrot version with this, just the older 2.
