I can't believe it is working again! I am overjoyed! My mother did like this doorbell!!

I know it's just for sound on one obscure machine, but I had a look and there is actually one on US eBay haha @SomeRandomGuy https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302524285134 I guess if it was to be bought so the chip can be decapped and scanned for the MAME driver, if the MAME decapping peeps are stateside, might make more sense to wire them the money/get it sent direct to them - to avoid paying import fees from USA, then import fees again from UK-> USA. Also, seller says "I tested and does work.", I guess someone with an eBay account should message first to ask to check that song 2-3 is the Oranges And Lemons song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=om-fw_Ty0ek ... to verify it is programmed with the correct set of 24 songs. But... it is out there anyway Over 40 mins of well lit 1080p footage on youtube, so ample material for a DX... one day could be played in Arcade Sim in 3d cab with sound... just very quickly grabbed a few quick frames, I'm sure there's better shots:

ok so tr1 was faulty! its emitter had failed after 40 years!! replaced it and....... At this time...I am not ready to let the chip go as this was made and given to... and used by my mother on her door for over 30 years, and she sadly passed just after Christmas last year, so at the moment it holds a lot of memories. but if there is any non destructive testing I can do then yes I can do what I can to help. But at least it proves a 'special' different version of this chip was never produced, just this one

2 years, have certainly gone quick. MFME is always something I fall back into, particularly, when life gets a bit tough. MFME will always be our lives I'm sure, which means Wizard will always be in our lives too.

I built this cab in lockdown with a 42 inch monitor, Thankyou to everyone for all your hard work.

This is my current set up. This set up is 7 foot to the top of the screen, and 2 foot 4 wide, with a 55" curved 4k screen, and stereo speakers either side. On the side I have 3 key switches. Top one turns on the little green note changer - put a note in and get 10 coins from hopper 1. (uses a hacked kids money box and 2 timer relays) The one on the left runs power to hopper 1 (if you need to unjam it). (rarely used) The middle key is a double pole 3 way switch, that swops hopper 1 & opto with hopper 2 & opto. (A few games use hopper 2 as the main hopper) The button box includes the Pacdrive and Ipac, and has a few extra buttons too. Including side buttons for MPU2 or pinball. On the back is a button for Full screen (F3), Escape, Random (F6) and a toggle switch for voume +/- And finally the change machine next to the cabinet. This uses a JY-142 board for change, and a Arduino Leonardo board for MFME credit. in switch position 1, it gives standard change, and also acts as hopper 3, in Triac output mode only. In switch position 2, it gives credit on MFME for various notes. The coin slot on the front acts as a normal coin input or refill. My next plan is to use a bigger cabinet with 4 hoppers in it, and a note acceptor. Maybe I will start that later this year? I already have most of the stuff I need, but am waiting to move to a bigger place.
