Road Hog Mad Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 Here we have a release of my personal software used on my touch screen home built fruit machine which I said I would share. It's about 90% done, all's I need to implement to it is a jukebox which is functionable using just the touch screen (any suggestions on this will be helpful). When you load TouchLaunch.exe if you press F12 you get more options, i.e. where the Emulator.exe is and your games folder, the game folders must be named as per the attachment or it won't recognize them. If you add your own games, within the game folder must be a thumbnail.jpg for it to display the thumbnail of the game. ESC closes it. As this is for my own use, I have only set it up for my needs and welcome any suggestions to improve it. Feel free to use or modify it in anyway.

Reg Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Well done mate - not had a chance to play with this - but you've moade yourself a nice graphical interface for your cabinet here. I would say, it looks better then the mGalaxy one I've used before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavroz Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Is there an option for a pointer for people to use it that don't have a touch screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Hog Mad Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Yes, if you use a mouse that should show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Hog Mad Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 I'll have to find the on screen keyboard I had made, which is basically just a volume up down and a X which displays over it, this enables you to switch between games etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Hog Mad Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 I want to build another one now, maybe in a JPM cabinet, but this time with a tocuh screen/button interface. Maybe I could use one of those all in one touch screen pcs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Hog Mad Posted May 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 On mine, I made it launch at start up (a YouTube video shows you how to make things auto start in Windows 10), I have an always on top volume adjustment and X to close game which puts you back to the launcher, you can see this is in my YouTube video. I'll upload this too, a member of the Mecca made it for me. I have this to auto load at startup too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Road Hog Mad Posted May 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2020 I dunno if it will be of any help but I have around 100 games all setup and configured with the pac drive payouts etc. I know it's setup for mine but if we all follow a set guide they would work on any setup. As mine is touch screen it doesn't have the pac drive button setup, just the payouts. My payouts are 20p and £1, e.g. Playing a token machine, it pays 20ps instead of tokens. I know some people will use a 10p hopper but it's just a thought, the file is about 2Gb. Let me know if of any use. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavroz Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 12 people have downloaded it, so all those other than me cannot be having the issue or haven't mentioned it. Xrar also brings up the same fault. Everything else zipped that i download is just fine, everything i zip and upload is fine, so i have to point a finger at Touchlaunch.rar and x.rar and say it is those that are faulty but i cannot say what at this time. thanks anyway.

GREDDIE Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Hey @Road Hog MadJust downloaded it, winzip unpacked it fine and runs fine but I'm having trouble setting it up. I just get a blank screen on the 3 buttons and I'm not sure what to type into the config screen. In the log file it reports : Unable to parse game info for 'D:\games I've got directories called BWB - The Spice Is Right 20p £10 85% I appreciate thats not the right game details but it's what I typed. any ideas?

Sure, i will look into it as i have noticed these 2 x uploads are .RAR files and not .ZIP files. Probably something to do with this not being set up. I am also using WinRar 5.90 (64bit). Thank you.

Take a screen shot of the game and save it as thumbnail.jpg then put it in that game folder and then re load touch launch, you'll see a pic of your game, click or press and it should load it up. 2 hours ago, GREDDIE said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
