bob5453 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I straightened your coin door and removed some of the camera flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centrox Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Any chance your coin door monitor is a touch screen? I was thinking of using a cheap tablet to function as a keyboard/mouse combo but having it double as a coin door would be pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocarrier Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 Its currently not a touch screen. When prices come down just a touch I plan on swapping it out. It took a 17" monitor to fill the hole where the old coindoor was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Content Provider Herweh Posted January 22, 2013 Content Provider Share Posted January 22, 2013 I thought you're kidding. You are really using a monitor as coin door. This is such a cool idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mameman Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Take it one further and change the image to match the coin door that came with that cab. Or top that and use a touchscreen so the coin returns etc would work. Probably need to inset it a little so you don't have the cab edge showing. Cool idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Dazz Posted January 23, 2013 Administrators Share Posted January 23, 2013 My fear with a screen as a coin door would be that someone would lean up against it wrong or knee going through the screen or something. But then again most people don't take their cabs to high traffic shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocarrier Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 mameman: rosve wrote an application that does exactly that for me. With a couple lines of script, when a table is launched, I control what coin door is displayed Its called c4s. Its like b2s but for a coindoor on the 4th screen. Dazz: I think maybe a sheild of plastic/plexi/tempered glass/etc would prevent that, but thankfully in my living room, I have no knee's to worry about!

Content Provider Herweh Posted January 23, 2013 Content Provider Share Posted January 23, 2013 I'm sure there is a unused old monitor somewhere in the basement. I have to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocarrier Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Thats pretty much why I used it Herweh. I bought an old cabinet that didnt have a coindoor. New coindoors were about $79 bucks plus shipping. I had the monitor, so free seemed a bit better. Rawd had the idea, rosve wrote the software....it kind of snowballed from there.

zebulon Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Very cool....it seems we're getting close to the monitors for side panels idea that was tossed around a year or so ago for active side art.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakenbake Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 If only the OLED technology was ready and cheap. You could just adhere it on the sides like cab art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
