View source for List of P-ROC Open Source projects

The best way to learn how to write custom pinball machine code is to look at existing projects. Here's a list of existing projects with source code that you can take a look at. Many of these are not complete, but it's a starting point for understanding how to write code for the P-ROC system.

* There's a game called "Starter" which comes in the P-ROC software download package. It's not complete, but a nice starting point.

There's a discussion in the [http://www.pinballcontrollers.com/forum/index.php?topic=861.0 forum] about which of these games you should look at first in order to understand them. The general consensus is you should start with Creature from the Black Lagoon, then dig into The Addams Family. Eric's Cactus Canyon is complete with a lot of modes and very complex (including support for color DMDs), so it's not something a newbie should jump into right away.
