Looks like "Bleeding"?

Good morning following the install, I am able to confirm that all of the games and settings are working as expected. I think this is an awesome kit!. I did have a question on a bit of troubleshooting, and I'm not sure what I should be checking. Preemptively I was going to pose a question and then go ahead and try to re-seat the chips. All games play. but on Pac-Man and Ms-Pac have bleeding of the Red color on the screen. All graphics that have some red in them show additional red "shadowing" below each of the graphics including the high score table display and the characters. Prior to installing the kit, my colors were all working as expected. Thanks in advance.

No worries!

You can make a quick adjustment on your neck board of your monitor. The new eprom of the kit is running a tad faster than the old prom it replaced. A quick adjustment there will fix you right up.

Wireless option?

I ordered a Pac-Man/Ms Pac-Man Multi Kit the other day. I seen that it has the possibility of online scoring. I wanted to know if it was possible to set that up wirelessly and if it can I tack that on to the order before it is shipped out?

No wireless option is available. Here's why -

The online capability uses a Cat5 cable to connect to the kit (using the ethernet port on the kit). Wireless has too much interference inside an arcade game (inside a wood box, monitor power, etc).

A nice way around is using a router/switch inside the same room your game is! Run the cables behind the cabinet and you're good to go!

More details here at top of this page.

Can I use this kit in a Ms Pacman?

Are your multipac boards compatible with Ms. Pacman or does the original game have to be Pacman in order for the add-on board to work?

Great question!

Yes, you can install the Multipac kit (or the single game kits for Pacman, Ms Pacman or Pacman Plus) on any original Pacman or Ms Pacman pcb. Remember, the kit doesn't care what cabinet or artwork you have, just that it is running a dedicated Pacman pcb inside to install it on! Check out the Install Guide on the product page for detailed pics.

How do I mount the daughter card off the ribbon cable?

How do I mount the daughter card off the ribbon cable?

There are a couple ways -

1. You can use the holes on that daughter card to secure with wood screws to the side of the cabinet. This is how Ms Pac was originally done back in the day (they actually had a metal plate w/plastic standoffs)

2. You can use Velcro

3. You can zip tie to the top of the SyncBus card. Just ensure the SBC is zip tied securely to the main pcb

Version 1.05 vs 1.07

Hello, I noticed a new version of the multipac is out- v1.07. What is the difference/changes between that version and the previous version 1.05?

Small menu changes and behind the scene stuff, nothing to do with game play!

ROMS

Is this using all original game ROMS for the games will they play exactly if it were the individual game/PCB, or is their any FPGA being used.

Yes, this kit plays exactly like the original pcb's, check out our YouTube channel (Subscribe to it too!) to see perfect patterns play. Also, has great additional features like initial entry, attract sounds and individual game high score tables saved, no other Pac Multi kit does that!

Pacman high score table

Does each game have it's.own high scores or is there just one shared high score list? What I'm getting at is, for example, does Ms. Pacman have its own separate high scores? Or is it just one list of high scores from all of the games in the kit?

Each game has its own high score table. With initials too.

Hope that helps

Can I upgrade to the most recent version?

Hello! I purchased the Pac-Man Multi Kit quite a while ago - my version is 1.02. Is there a way to update to the current version?

Absolutely!

  1. You can ask for the binary and burn it yourself on the W27c512 on the main daughter card of the kit.
  2. You can have a new eprom mailed to you in the USA for $12 total (Just ask in email)
  3. You can order anything in the shop and we will add to your package at no charge! (email us the order number quickly after you order)

 

Hope that helps!

Will the kit work on a 25th Anniversary Pacman cabinet?

I have a Pac-Man 25th anniversary that plays Pac-Man, Mrs. Pac-Man and Galaga, I was wondering if this highe score save kit would work for that?

No, it will not. That is a JAMMA pcb, not original hardware. The Multi kit is only for original pcbs, a quick look at the install guide will show what an original pcb looks like for Pac and Ms Pac

Pac Man Multi Rom

Hi Joe, I hope all is well. I got the ROM image that you sent over for my Multipac kit. It says V22 on it and I was going to burn it to an eprom. A few questions if you don’t mind: 1. Will this work with your kit no matter when I bought it? I purchased mine pretty early on. 2. What size eprom does it take? 3. Which socket on the kit does it go in? Thanks for your help as always.

1.Will this work with your kit no matter when I bought it?  I purchased mine pretty early on.

Yes. 

2.What size eprom does it take?

512. The one that's on the kit is an erasable Windbond w27c512, if your programmer handles that. Or, any 512 eprom you have can work...

 

3.Which socket on the kit does it go in?

Only 28 pin socket on main daughter card.

 

Hope that helps

 

My cable is too short!

Why is my cable too short?

Cable length is fine, please take a look at the install guide of how to connect cable from what daughter card. It would seem "short" if it is plugged in the improper order. Detailed pics in the Install Guide tab.

Multi Pac

I have a miss Pac-Man board. Can this kit be put on that board or do I have to get an original PAC-MAN board or do I need to convert the miss Pac-Man board to a regular PAC-MAN board to make this work?

Pac and Ms Pac pcbs are the same as far as the kit is concerned. You will be removing the existing roms and proms when you install the kit. Please take a look at the install guide for pictures. Thanks!

How do I get the settings screen?

How do I get the settings screen?

How do I get to the menu settings?

 

With the power off on your game. Press and hold P1 while you turn the game on. Release P1 button when the screen tells you to. You are now in the main menu settings. This is a feature built into your kits so the menu settings are not accessible to your guests or family. Now, having said that, you need to enable this feature in the menu settings, or, disable if you want your kit to give you approximately 5 seconds every time you turn on your game.

High score entry / display

Hi, I just got your Pac man multi board and was wondering how to turn off the high score initial entry. I want to be able to save the high score, but not put in initials after each game. I went through the menu a few times, but don’t see anything that applies. Also, the (show high scores) toggles from on and off, but does not seem to make any change, it’s always there. I think I’m missing something? Is there specific dip settings that need to be set in the board itself? Let me know, and keep up the great work you do on theses kits, Brian.

Hi, the kit allows you to enter initials now [as the original does not]. It's a great feature and is not able to be turned off. 

What's the difference between a high score save kit and an online high score save kit?

I see there are multiple high score save kits for the same game. What's the difference? Which one should I choose?

Great Question!

While all of the high score save kits save scores, have an on screen menu for difficulty settings and other features like attract sounds (Please see the description under each kit for full details)

There are usually 2 or 3 main types - 

High Score Save kit - This is a great option for anyone wanting to save scores and have free play option on their game with some other cool options! Again, please see the product description page for each kit you are looking at.

Online High Score Save kit - This is next level stuff! You can now save your scores locally on your machine and upload your scores to the Global High Score Save web page!

Information uploaded is not just your initials and score, but also uploads the day, time, difficulty levels, how many guys used, players name, city and country you are in and the name of your arcade!

Please remember, you need to have internet access and your high score save kit connected to it. As of right now, there are CAT5 modules to plug in or there are WiFi modules available for select high score save kits. This information is on the online high score save description page.

Can you still use as coin-op?

Hello! Does this kit (or the Ms. Pac Man high score save kit) still allow for coin-op play, or is it free play only? Thanks!

Yes you can!

Can you help me identify and find a solution to the issues I'm experiencing?

Sometimes there's a waxy buildup in ribbon cable connectors. Install on and off a few times on each connection to a kit daughter card. 

Received my kit and now the screen looks like this after installation

That screen is a static screen. This tells you that there could be a few issues -

  • The z80 is not firing. This could be that the main daughter card of the save kit is not seated properly or not all header pins are in the z80 socket, the z80 is installed incorrectly on the kit, or there are bent legs on the z80 or the daughter card itself.
  • The syncbus card is not seated properly or there are bent pins on the riser.
