How To Program A Game Elf {750 in 1}

[@JohnSmith-xp8dz]

I’m in a VRBO with a table top game unit. Somehow the system had the screen upside down making the table unplayable. Your simple explanation of pressing the test button during boot up is exactly what I needed to change the screen settings. I have 5 kids here for thanksgiving and you just saved the day. Thank you for making this video.

Is there a way to keep it from automatically starting the first game if you don't touch it for a while? Mine always does that if I ignore it, and never goes back to the game browse screen unless I manually exit the game it started. Said another way, is there a setting that keeps it on the game browse screen until a game is manually selected?

Hi there, Ty for the video. I’ve tried adjusting the volume knob but my machine still doesn’t have sound. Any other ideas on a fix? Ty!

Is there a way to mirror the screen on games for a 2 player cocktail arcade table? Like Street Fighter, or even X-Men?

If p 1 button not working does it need to be programmed with ps2 controller

Amazing how a lot of this info isn't in the manual or if it is I can't understand it. Also important. DO NOT connect power through the Jamma edge connector AND the 4 pin Molex port on the side AT THE SAME TIME. The board can be ruined (this info is in the manual). Thanks for the vid Will. I WILL be coming back to your instructions once I replace the old Jamma game board with the new Elf 750. I don't have the D, E or F buttons either so have to put them in first. PS AsteriX, not asterick 🙂.

Mine is Game Family, with a picture of a cartoon crab, and I don't get the "Press Test Button" message.

Hi, I have an Elf 412 in one in an arcade machine but they did not install buttons D E or F :(........... is there any way of setting these setting without them? If not, how do I do a factory reset to default? I have changed some of the games to "Hardest" accidentally and cant get them back without the missing buttons! Your help would be greatly appreciated.

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

Sadly you'd need to have the D, E, & F buttons in order to do a factory reset on the board. The only thing I can say could be done would be to either install D, E, & F buttons on your control panel or at the very least set up some momentary switches to the D, E, & F inputs but keep them on the inside of the cabinet so you can use them for factory reset or at least adjusting the settings for the game.

[@bryansarracino8623]

I have the same question! Did you ever figure this out??

[@bryansarracino8623]

How do you set up momentary switches if you dont mind me asking@@willsarcadeservice4599

[@DaiVernonRIP]

Connect a usb controller direct to board

[@DaiVernonRIP]

​@bryansarracino8623 i connected a ps5 controller to the usb port on mine, square is A, triangle is B, X is C, O Is D, L1 is E and R1 is F. Analog stick for navigation, D-pad doesn't work.

Hello, @willsarcadeservice4599. Can you please tell me if Robotron (or Crazy Climber) plays correctly using dual joysticks? In other words, you normally play by using the Player 1 and Player 2 joysticks simultaneously on a 19-in-1 or Multi-Williams. Does the Game Elf support this?

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

Yes it does, this game has Robotron and requires the use of both joysticks

[@mattcaine9938]

I have an encoded control panel with USBs coming off the panel. I bought a splitter and hooked it into the USB port on the Blue Elf. I get nothing. Joystick dowsnt respond nor do the buttons. Does that mean i did something wrong or does the Elf not support this? Thoughts?

[@jed2055]

I'd bet this unit keeps it simple and the USB port is not a hub like on a Mac or Windows PC so one controller would be its limit but, happy to be corrected.

[@joeyjalomo9716]

I have a 750 in 1 have a problem with it everytime a game is played at game over the screen does not go to browse it stays on the same game that was played how can I adjust to fix this problem

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

If I remember correctly you have to press the player 1 and 2 buttons at the same time, then a screen asking you if you'd like to leave the game should appear. Do you have the manual for the game?

[@operationrestore3308]

Would narc run on this hardware?

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

After setting one up and actually playing the system I agree with you. It has major flaws and issues that could cause a person to have a heart attack or get grey hair way before they should.

[@tom11zz884]

I have one these on a tabletop arcade machine. I believe I have the 750 games one. The games on the machine play absolutely terrible. Buggy, laggy and with serious audio glitches. What can I do to fix this?

[@ELORIGINALDELASIERRA]

Did you find a fix

[@joemama5421]

I’m sure this is obvious, but I just want to be certain…there’s a particular game that I plan on having it set on single game mode for…will it appear just like the original cabinet would if I set the machine on single mode? Like will it show the small snippet of gameplay or the title screen and play the game’s music before I press the P1 start button? I just want to make sure it behaves like the original game when set on single game mode… thanks in advance!

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

I never made a video on that topic, but sadly it won't it shows just like you see in the video. I had a customer want to do the same thing and when I tried it it still gives the game list but with only a singular game to choose from.

[@Oli-kg6wq]

is there a way to add your own games?

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

Sadly not for this set up that I'm aware of. You'd want to use a PI System to do that.

[@ТемаБармашов]

what size monitor?

[@willsarcadeservice4599]

This particular monitor is a 19" LCD, I don't remember the Ratio sadly

[@mortalkombatarcadelover4479]

I ordered a power supply to play the Mortal Kombat 4 arcade board on, they gave me the Game Elf instead
