I have got Daphne running 'to a point' in OS X with a few issues such as controls still left to do, but instead of using the DaphneLoader I would like to try and integrate it into my QMC2 fronted that I use for mame - unfortunately I am hitting a brick wall in getting it working and was wondering if anyone else was running Daphne in such a set-up that could help?

I am happy that i have the correct frame files etc, i just don't know how to set it up in the 'foreign emulators' section of QMC2...

Any and all help would be gratefully appreciated...

Mine is playing up and my problem-solving skills are zero so if anyone has a fully working power board for a Sinistar can you let me know please?

I recently picked up a System 1 Atari Marble Madness cab in great condition. As it came with a pedal i guess it was origionally a Road Blasters so not sure if that is the root of my problems...

Basically, the marbles do not move fast enough. I used to play it in the arcade and know they go better if you use 2 trackballs at the same time but that doesnt help here - whatever i do i cannot make the jumps etc, the ball just falls off the edge!

So far i have done the following:

Checked voltages to the sys1 board using the points towards the bottom right - rock steady +5V
new rollers and bearings - much smoother but still no actual improvement.
Cleaned the optical sensors on the trackballs
Cleaned the legs and reseated the LETA chip.
Gone through the internet over and over again without finding anyone else with this problem...

Is it possible that because the cab was origionally a RoadBlasters that the sys1 board is not interpreting the trackball signals correctly and therefore just registering movement without seeing the 'velocity'?
Could the LETA chip be the issue? I know there are 2 versions this one is the *****-002 chip.

Any and all advice greatly received as i did find that at least one member here has done a RB to MM conversion - any similar problems?

Cheers,
chubs

I'll start this one with my best score on the machine i got 2 days ago - 160,790. My best in the 80's was over 275,000 so i still have a way to go  

Although i have a couple of posts in the 'for sale' section  I figure it is best to actually introduce myself before i get into any more trouble!

Basically, UK based, in the South East just outside Dover, and have been into arcade cabs for about 8 years, have owned a few and sold a few, but am finally looking to add dedicated machines to my room as i have found that Mame just doesn't cut it with most of my favourites!

I have previously owned a Mushiking and Lordsvale NeoGeo as well as various cocktail cabs but stupidly sold them on when i needed some cash so currently own:

The Star Wars has also got the Empire Strikes Back kit in it although i think the game is pants, and that is a Judge Dredd pinball next to it. As per my post on the sales section I am looking to get hold of my 2 other 'Holy Grail' machines - a Sinistar (which i hopefully have actually found  ) and a Tron, once i have those then i will probably slow down the buying a little before setting off on a quest for my '2nd tier' machines - Gorf, Juno First, Robotron, Retrun of the Jedi.

I have been reading this forum for years as i was always a huge fan of Dragons Lair back in the 80's and could complete it on single-touches, unfortunately when i play it in Daphne these days i can't seem to get anywhere...

Anyway..... hi!
