See xmame for other keyboard shortcut information A sub menu appears, choose input (this game) to see what the keyboard keys doĪll of the short cut keys that are enabled are here for simulation purposes. The elvis DMD window appears just like a mame environment.

This gives us the full dmd with the lamps and switches displayed in the window Launch pinmame help (This provides our command line switches) I copied xpinmame.x11 to /usr/local/share/xpinmame and I copied my rom files to /usr/local/share/xpinmame/romsįirst switch to the xpinmame.x11 directory (Where ever you installed the binary to. Lets talk about some command line switching. I manually copied files into my final destination /usr/local/share/xpinmame The completed object file was xpinmame.x11 INITGAME(pmv112, 1, cc_dispDMD128x32, 3, SNDBRD_CAPCOMS, 8)Īnother spot was _stricmp is undefined in linux, during the link process switching references to strcasecmp() did the job. The fix involved changing references to INITGAMEFF to (all references) The compile failed at a couple of places one was due to capgames.c for fast flippers and preprocessor pasting operation. Here is the list of the package I made sure were present for a successful compile (There are some sound packages that I neglected to note what they were) INCLUDES = -I/usr/include/X11 -I/usr/includeĪlso since I am using X11 for my output testing I made sure I have the X11 debian packages. Since my linux distro is Ubuntu I verified these setting enabled. Simple edits were done to makefile.unix to allow my binary to do what I wanted. The build was done on my Ubuntu 18.04 Virtual machine. Let me begin by sharing some compile and build stuff. I will make a few youtube video and my progress moves along further.Īlso I will document some of the help tidbits I found along the way. Interface to my arduino/teensy for simple lamp/solenoid/Dmd control Some differences for _stricmp that cause linux link to fail may also be absent from that text file.Ĥ) Launch xpinmame.x11 and test options and perform simple keyboard simulations to demo switches, lamps, solenoids, score displaysĮnable DmDdump, sound wave capture testing Some change need to be added to capgames.c for fastflippers that were absent from that text file (Raspberry Pi 3 targeted next)Ģ) Noted what changes required to makefile.unix for optimum Ubuntu or Raspberry pi needs and video output needs to a DMDģ) Applied a few changes to enable compiles to work (for more details you can see the unix_todo.txt file for thoese changes)
MICROSOFT PINBALL ARCADE KEYS CODE
This has been an educational process for me to understand pinmame and how it can control a real pinball machine.įor those who also follow you can see the work that I did creating a hybrid pinball machine using an arduino and raspberry pi.ġ) Downloaded pinmame source code to Ubuntu 16.04 & 18.04 machines. I thought I would share my journey so far. I have been following/lurking the progress of others trialing pinmame with a real hardware machine.
