Hiya guys,
After playing on a few emulators for some fruit machines, I thought it could be worth trying my hand at starting a project to add some realism by adding a coin mechanism to make a personal "moneybox" with a load of change I seem to have collected over the months.
There are quite a few coin mechanisms that are available to link to computers (for arcade machines etc) but has anyone ever added a full mechanism (including hopper and dispenser) to an emulation project? If so have they got any tips/reccommendations to such a project?
The task at hand is to create a home-made bar-top machine capable of emulating a fruit machine that can accept and dispense change, but if it isnt possible or legal then i just might have to resort to using a jar by my laptop! :-)
Cheers!
