HazelSX2 Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) Hey! Last year i got a good deal in germany for a digital slot. A Bally Wulff Action Star - Burn the Sevens. (this is a google picture) After a while i decided to turn it into a Multimedia Station with the following functions MFME Emulation Jukebox with spotify etc. Linked Smart-Home Panel The devices comes with some buttons, a coin and bill acceptor(SV9USB) and also with two hoppers (Azkoyen). First step to start my project was to expand the button panel. So i decided to drill some holes into the glas cover. The glory result: Spoiler ... glass exploded in thousand fragments ... After that step i tried to replace the buttonpanel with wood and the other parts with acrylglass. Because of my unskilled craft skills the result was not perfect but acceptable and it fitted.. These parts are unpainted until i tested everything. I connected the button leds to a pac drive and the switches to a ipac2. Now i connected the Touch panel and the pac boards to a notebook and configured everything (driver for touch etc.) The result so far: The Black areas at the bottom and the top are because i dind't streched the mfme emulation view. Now i try to connect the hoppers and the sv9 in parallel mode. Sadly the coin acceptor only support "CCTALK" and i don't know how to get it work with mfme... So maybe i buy another multi coin acceptor that hopefully fit... After this i try to build the led panels, cut the acrylglas, paint the panel and assemble everything together... Thats it for now!

Luuk Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Nice work! What coin hopper and how will it work with mfme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas the fruit Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Hey, HazelSX2, I have the same Idea. A few weeks ago I bought a bally Wulllf Multigame2. The AmaPCI Card Battery is empty so the machine is no longer usable My next idea is to built a MFME Machine. The Pentium 3 and all the other components incl. The elo Touchscreen inside the cabinet works fine. I have installed a fresh xp on the pc. Next steps are: Mfme frontend Kodi Pac drive, ipac2 or arduinos Regards Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazelSX2 Posted June 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 This is my progress so far. I'm not finish yet but it is ready to play. Current Features: - Simple RGB-LED-Stripes controlled by pacdrive (same as the buttons i connected some LED-Stripes with the pacdrive - a lot of wiring) - Coin Acceptor via Parallel (Emulates Key-pressing in combination with a AutoIT-Script) As soon you insert a 5 EUR bill, the acceptor sends a signal to the ipac 2 device. It emulates a key press which execute the autoit script. - Acyrl-Glas finishing + Coloring Todo: - FInd a compatible coin acceptor with parallel support - Find a way to get the Azkoyen Dispenser working - Finishing with aluminium-stripes between acryl/panel and display. - Setup more MFME Roms Some Pictures and a new Video: 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marilesis Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Hi folks, I do the same project at the moment. Got a Bally Wulff Game Station with the 26" monitor and Azkoyen coin acceptor and hoppers, ccTalk. Did you manage to get the fruit machine working with these or what did you do? Any help would be great! Manfred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davep180 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Hoppers and coin acceptor need to be the parallel type. I don’t think the cctalk ones will work in mfme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilesis Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Thanx Davep180, I already read about it, what do you think of this (sorry Italian site): https://www.roottech.it/store/product/rth-cc-convertitore-hopper-cctalk-a-hopper-parallelo-1 and https://www.roottech.it/store/product/convertitore-da-gettoniera-cctalk-a-impulsi-rtg-cc-roottech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davep180 Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 I've seen this on ebay in the uk. I wasn't 100% sure about it, but looking at the website link you provided, I cannot see why it would not work. If you get one, do a thread on how it works! Parallel hoppers in the uk are quite scarce, so more options are always welcomed. If you are in europe, it will probably be cheaper to buy a parallel hopper on ebay, there are normally lots in Germany, but due to Brexit they just can't post to us anymore without lots of paperwork and high costs.

Marilesis Posted March 18, 2023 Report Share Posted March 18, 2023 Ofcourse the brexit brings lots of problems, sometimes I also had to order from the UK and it nearly doubles the costs. I am here in Germany and at the moment there are very few hoppers, some cheap ones in Slovenia or Slovakia, but I have some doubts about it ... I think I will give these interfaces a try and - yes - I will let the community know, you know, one hand washes etc ! I hope to give some infos back as I still have loads of questions ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
