Doesn't the PB2K I/O board simply plug into the PC parallel port? That's about the simplest possible interface, but it's just an 8 bit interface. Did you guys have to reverse engineer the protocol? Yes the I/O via the pc parallel port is a very simple but effective design. Ironically enough I emula...

About the I/O, we are interfacing the original pb2k I/O board. It's extremely well designed, very rugged, is easily fixed if it needs repair, and lowers the cost of nucore since we don't need to re-invent the wheel. If this part ever becomes hard to find (only way would be if people put them in the ...

WOW!!
That looks f*king... Awe....ful!!
I'm not sure why you'd even post this really..
So cmon, get a good picture so we can all salivate..
You'll probably need to mount the camera on a tripod and use a timer to get a stable picture with such low lightning conditions.

Re: Product Name
Might want to do a trademark search on using the name "nucore" before you try selling a product by that name/brand. Search "nucore" on Google and you'll get the idea. You might be small enough to not be on anyone's radar even if it violates a trademark. Of course, you can usuall...

I'll probably be too busy to shoot video. But it probably will shoot a vid afterwards since our software has progressed and new features have been added. Steve added something he's always wanted, auto-play. By installing two hall sensors under his rfm playfield he can detect when the ball is in the...

Today I looked online for a lcd that would fit. Almost everyone has stopped making 4:3 monitors :p I found a couple new and they were nearly 400 bucks. Since I've blown way too much money on this project already I decided to check my inventory. I gave my son an old monitor that was on my wife's pc ...

SMC 83c795 is the name of the controller chip used on the SMC 8416 EtherEZ ISA cards (8416T, 8416BT, 8416BTA). Other ethernet card manufacturers also use SMC controllers, although I haven't come across any other cards that use the 83c795. Thanks, that's kind of what I assumed, but am glad to get cl...

Thanks alot!! Looks like it's got a lot of juicy detail for what's needed , perhaps too much ;) Curious, is the 8416, based on the 83c795 (or in plain english, how come the #'s don't correlate?) Here's the data book for the SMC ethernet controller used in the 8416 network cards: http://www.scoresave...

Cool, love to talk to you about the things i'd like to fix or find workarounds for in the original code. Keep in mind we can't change the original code (nor would we wish too even if possible)... However, with our emulation/virtualization layer in place, we can often provide a lot more flexibility ...

Re: RFM Internet Tournament System
Loving your work. Thought i'd share my pin2000 project with you guys. I've developed my own complete tournament system with full compatibility to the existing pinball software that allows anyone with a Revenge from Mars game to particiapate in a worldwide tournament from the comfort of their own ho...

Yeah, from the moment I thought of the idea, and everytime I launch the ball since then, I think jeez, I hate having to take my hands off the flipper to launch the ball, I gotta get that feature coded up.. ;) You could always just make the game play itself, grab a beer, and sit back and watch :D LO...

I saw a cool mod done to the Manual plunger on a SW:EP1 which a launch button was modded into the Manual plunger housing. The RFM playfield had to be modded with one of the autolaunch mechs from a stern pinball (Like ONE from TSPP) so you could choose to manually plunge the RFM or Press the button ...
