automatically put in credits?

Is there a way, that when you start a game the GameEx that it will automatically put credits into the game?

Never thought about this before, but could you make a ahk that waits lets say 8 sec then sends a bunch of 1s to the mame window? Opinions?

Mame's new input system (post 116) will not accept the send keys, send input that AHK, AutoIT produce.

Further more, such a system as loading credits from a frontend implies the commercial use of mame, which is against Mamedev wishes.

It may not be your intent, but there is always someone out there to make a buck. You will be pretty hard pressed to find credit management programs.

That said, you could compile mame to use the old input system and devise any type of program you wish, I'd be wary of posting it and making it public.

If you were going to play with mame and recompile it you might as well add the send right into the program when the init is finished.

But thats too much work for not hitting a button a couple of times.

Are you referring to the press left and right to send "ok" to the disclaimer page? If so those are removed on custom mame builds.

Check out Ben Bakers (Headkaze) easy mame compilier and the HIscore Diff from MKCHAMP, it removes all messages from mame and enables highscore support, which was removed from mame quite a few builds ago.
