Hi there,

I'm doing an event soon and I want to set my game to 1 quarter a play on my STTNG. I know back in the days, Williams made it hard to do this setting as they were trying to raise prices of games. I seemed to have tried everything. I've tried the various jumper settings to Europe, Export 2, I've also tried to use the dollar coin slot. Everything is just counted at 1/2 of a credit when I make the pricing adjustments, custom coinage does not work either.

Does anyone know if I need to burn the rom for a different country?

Country code is set by dipswitches on WPC MPU boards. However, some boards have wire jumpers instead of the dipswitch.

As I understand it, country specific ROMs are usually just for audible speech.

I've tried the various dip switch settings. They work - but I still can't get the coinage settings to take effect.

Looking in my STTNG manual, the Holland setting seems to provide straight 1 to 1 setting. The Chile setting also provides a 1 token setting as does the Argentina setting.

Put it on custom pricing and then set coin = 1 unit and credit = 1 unit.

There's no custom pricing on STTNG like other WPC's, the same goes for No fear and IJ. This is at a time where they were screwing with the coin default values.

I have heard that burning the export rom may expose the coin settings.

If you need an LX7 ROM let me know as I have an extra one lying around.

Fantastic, thanks for the info! I found LX-5 on IPDB, I'll burn that for now.

Oh cool, since you have a burner LX7 is also on IPDB.
