pikkey Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Just landed here to beg for an answer.I've discovered Coinops (what a great job!) a month ago, and I realized it was the perfect reason to resume a working XBOX I've found between the trash. Where I've lost my last nights is about how-where to install it, even because it seem there are no docs about, anywhere on the web.Everybody talk about a problem or a hint, nobody about install procedure. Or at least, google didn't give them to me. I only succeed to run coinop installing the entire coinops in a folder on F partition, and using a file explorer to launch the "default" file that make it run the "carousel" but something tell me that's not the correct way to make it work. So, please is there any guide around about "HOW TO MAKE IT RUN" ?Any suggestion are welcome. Thanks in advance Francesco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How big is the package you downloaded? The latest is CoinOPS EPIC at about 18 GB. To "install it" you simply extract the archive and copy over the contents to your Xbox. In your case the F: drive is fine. Using the file explorer to launch the default.xbe is how you run CoinOPS. What happens after you launch the default.xbe? Are you presented with a screen that is showing a video of a game and a list of ~2000 roms? Have you tried launching any of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've downloaded Coinops Inferno HD, about 18gb of package. When I run default.xbe , it make appear the menu with all the arcade games installed, with the demo video running. Games work, even if it takes too long to start (2 or 3 mins) but right now I'm focused to make a correct installation. tnx for the reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leema123 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hi all, ive added 16 games to Coinops EPIC and they all work fine ive also added the screenshots but only one of them shows. They are all named correctly, the same as the roms, they are all pngs and ive even tryed resizing them to sizes the same as other screenshots that were already in Coinops. So thats it im stumped, anybody got any other ideas? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toledanogus Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Yes, in your PC right clic on that png, propeties, details, and there is one option "profundidad de bits" it has to say 24, other way coinops won't read, for example if it says 32 bits it won`'t work. Use a program editor and put a background layer, this way the img will be a 24 bits png and coinops will read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delete all the folders in UDATA and TDATA, restart and launch CoinOPS. That is get rid of the 2 to 3 minute load times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, you appear to be right as all the pics that dont work are 32bit but i cant find a way to change it. Ive tryed microsoft paint. Any suggestions on a program to use?

pikkey Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 hmmm you dont have to launch coinops though a file manager ..... I supposed too, but the "how to" seems to be a secret everyone want to keep till buried ) is it so tricky to include the coinops default.xbe in a xbox menu?I'm using X-wizard 3.1 as dashboard, but I also tested Slayers 2.7...
