Ultimarc is the main supplier. Output :: LED and Output Controllers :: PAC Drive (ultimarc.com)

In a nutshell, the PacDrive fires 5v to the hopper relay, which gets the hopper spinning. However, it stays on until the opto senses the coin output, and in turn fires a relay, which connects 2 pins on your Ipac, which makes the "[" or "]" key press on your PC. For triac payouts, you can do away with the Ipac as it does exactly as you say. I use an aduino R3 and route the opto back in to the arduino to stop the hopper spinning.

I use a 3-way key switch to cross over the opto connections (coin output sensors), and a separate 3-way switch to cross over the hopper connections from the Pacdrive. There is a setting in MFME Config to swop the optos over for AstraSYSA1, but not for scorpion 4/5 or impact. IE: Monopoly Deluxe, Very Rich Geezer, Wild Jackpots (scorpion 4) Baking Bad (Scorpion 5) Club Frame & Fortune, Club Big Top, Club Red Hot 6 (impact) The following need the Opto and the hopper switching over:

I prefer 16:9 in portrait mode, because you can always add blank space to the top of layouts to make them fit snuggly to the bottom of a cab. 16:9 is also better for the taller layouts with belly glasses and top features.

Looks better than the version I had on the C64! I went to a computer fair at Bell Vue in Manchester back in the 80's. I had a Fiver on me, which was just enough to buy one C64 game. It was a toss-up between Scramble and Qbert. I have forever regretted not choosing Scramble!

F1 is actually an MFME shortcut for "Borderless", so it may be Better to use a number like 5 or 6.

Not really sure what your asking? But....Is this happening on a specific layout or every layout? What coin mech are you using?

Alternatively, you could instal Peazip. I use Peazip for both Rar and Zip files.

Go to preferences and untick Long Term Meters.

There is another one called MGalaxy https://www.mgalaxy.com/. I have not tried it, but it looks like it was built for multiple emus.

Put a key switch in line with the hopper and mains (bypassing the relay powered by the Pacdrive).

For the kids hacked money box way, I use 2 timer relays. One controls the timing for the motor that pulls the note in, and another one times the hopper to pay out 10 coins (in milliseconds). I might have posted more info somewhere? The other note changer I built, I used a JY-142 timer board and a note accepter. Quick vid of the timers.

You can always add a couple of 2 way switches. One that swops the opto outputs over from one hopper to the other (] to [), and another that swops over the Pacdrive hopper outputs over (15 to 16). I have done this on my cab.

There is a "Dual Screen" mode in MFME check box in preferences.

I don't think the ROMs are with any of the legacy layouts? Stick this in the folder. rbow0_2K.zip

Ahh! So there was a released 6.1. Quite a few upgrades since then:)

V6.1 sounds like the illegal Aristocrat emu that was leaked, nothing to do with MFME.

This happens to me too. Sometimes I do "ctrl alt del" (Task Manager) and left click the ">" and right click on "Maximise".
