=== History ===
Funword AG, was established in 1980 by Josef Öhlinger in Gmunden, Austria.

The company initially traded game machines, later expanding into software and hardware development. By 1987, it became a general importer for electronic dart game machines. In 1993, the company shifted its focus to developing what they call "socially acceptable products", meaning no porn, gambling or violence.

Their 1995 Photo Play touchscreen entertainment terminal concept proved successful, with the 1996 released Photo Play 2000 series becoming the market leader in Europe, followed by a decade of growth, high sales and international "Photo Play World Games" competitions. The 2002 Funworld website stated there were 130.000 terminals worldwide, with 30 million annual players playing 1,2 billion games.

With the Apple iPhone coming out in 2007, touch screen arcades machines lost their novelty almost overnight and sales started to go down. In 2010, Funworld faced insolvency and was bought by Quanmax (later named S&T) for EUR 1.9 million. In 2016, S&T decided to retreat from the infotainment market and supported a management buy-out of its Funworld assets. The former Funworld sales director Rainer Eder founded Funworld GmbH. The spin-off however did not meet expectations and was sold at a loss for all Funworld shareholders in 2020.

=== [[Photo Play Software Releases]] ===
[[Photo Play Software Releases|Photo Play software releases]] are divided into 4 categories:

"[[Photo Play Software Releases#PTS-DOS|PTS-DOS]]" - All software releases for the 2000 Generation were released using PTS-DOS (a Russian MS-DOS Clone), hence the name.

"NG" - The "Next Generation" version had two software releases, N.G. 1 and N.G. 2 which were compatible with Net Collection (2.1) Generation machines. Also known as XPE.

"UPDATE 200x" - Released for Net Collection and Xtreme Generation, these are versions of their SYSTEM counterparts but with lower graphics, for machines with less processing power. Also known as XPO.

"SYSTEM 20xx" - Released for Xtreme and Pro Generation machines, these were the last and more "demanding" versions released. Also known as TULCHAM.

=== Preservation Effort ===
Being the system that started all of the TAP project, there are some preservation efforts ongoing. Unfortunately it's also one of the systems with less documentation with the most part of it being hardware-wise.

Nonetheless, there were also some advances in the software side, all of which you can find a list below:

=== History ===
In 2001 Funworld released the "Net Collection 2.1", a new range that played into the internet hype at the time and came with a more powerful computer that contained dial up networking by default. The cabinet designs also dropped the woodgrain and got a new futuristic look.

=== Machines ===
The collection consists of one standup and two bartop machines, plus a dedicated internet terminal:
*[[Funworld Photo Play Spirit 2.1|Photo Play Spirit 2.1]]
*[[Funworld Photo Play Barry 2.1|Photo Play Barry 2.1]]
*[[Funworld Photo Play Smart 2.1|Photo Play Smart 2.1]]
*[[Funworld Touch2Web|Touch2Web]]

=== Software Versions ===
As the hyped I.G.O. NG was not ready at launch, the 2.1 series released with Update 2001, and later got a free NG1 update.
* PTS-DOS: '''Update 2001''', '''I.G.O. 1''' to '''I.G.O. 8.''' This is software for [[Funworld Photo Play 2000 Generation|Photo Play 2000]] running in backwards compatibility mode.
* NG: '''I.G.O. NG''' and '''I.G.O. NG 2 Pro'''. Early (2002-2003) 2.1 software with NG1 running on Windows 98, and NG2 moving to XP Embedded.
* XPO: '''Update 2004''' to '''Update 2009'''. Mature software for the 2.1 platform. This is what you want to use.

=== PTS-DOS ===
Meant for the [[Funworld Photo Play 2000 Generation]]. Named after the OS that Funworld used as a base, a Russian MS-DOS clone called [[wikipedia:PTS-DOS|PTS-DOS]].

Each release (1999+) was protected by two dongles:

* [https://www.ibuttonlink.com/collections/maxim-dallas-ibutton-products '''Dallas iButton'''] present on the ISA IO Board on 486-based machines and on the mainboard itself on 5SFV machines.
* '''Parallel-port Dongle''' which had to be of the same year and country as the game software for it to run. For example, a 2001DE dongle would not work on a 2001FR or a 2002DE, only on a 2001DE version (but would work if there are multiple revisions\builds of the same release).

Note that they are being listed by the NSB Number (BUILD number?) present on C:\MENU\NSB.NR, which gets shown at each machine startup.

The table below shows all TAP preserved PTS-DOS releases . If you have a version that is not present here, please get in contact!

Released in 2005, this is the final Silverball released by [[TAB Austria]] before they moved onto [[TAB Austria Fun4Four|Fun4Four]]. It improves the computer and refines the cabinet once more, this time adding a joystick between the buttons to play some games fully without needing the touchscreen.

=== Trivia ===

* Due to how easy it was to break the lock on the coin box, funworld designed an addon that would stop access to the lock and prevent extraction of the coin box.
* This was also the first machine released by funworld that could use the fun.link adapter for connecting two machines or more locally.

}}
=== History ===
Released in 1999, the Photo Play Smart was the first flat-screen based Photo Play machine, based on the [[Funworld Photo Play 2000 Generation|2000]] platform. This machine had several advantages, namely it's smaller size when compared to the previous Barry models, a very appealing modern design (which was used for later released machines as the Spirit and newer Smart models), it was lighter, easier to maintain and also had a safer coin box.

Additionally, the Smart LB subvariant increased the width to 555 mm to fit a banknote acceptor.

While the use of an All-in-one motherboard (5SFV0) gave it a little speed upgrade over the 486 boards, it also made repairing it more expensive as the only external card was the touchscreen controller.

=== History ===
In 1999, [[Funworld]] released the Photo Play Masters cabinet with a dial up modem and new refreshed look as part of the Photo Play NET campaign. Besides of the modem/look, these cabs are technically identical to the normal wood grain [[Funworld Photo Play 2000|Photo Play 2000]] and were sold alongside each other.

Photo Play NET (fun.net) was an additional service for Photo Play cabinets to sync their high scores to the web using a dial up modem. This meant that high scores in each local machine were globally updated daily. The Funworld website of 2001 stated that 11.500 machines were part of the fun.net network that year.

A "Playennium" limited edition was released in 2000 to celebrate Funworld's 20 year anniversary. This cabinet was yellow instead of blue and a badge with its unique serial number in a range of maximum 2222 cabinets being produced.

}}

=== History ===
Released in 1996, this is the original [[Funworld Photo Play 2000 Generation|Photo Play 2000 generation]] cabinet released by [[Funworld]]. The woodgrain cabinet with CRT touchscreen made it fit right in at late 90's cafés, restaurants and bars and beyond. Internally, the machine has silently been upgraded due to the later releases being more demanding hardware-wise.

Software-wise, the very early versions did contain some adult-themed games which were removed in the following versions when funworld decided to adopt their "Positive Games" concept in 1998, becoming the only company that supplied machines with games that were free of violence, pornography and gambling.

This philosophy was very appreciated not only by most players but also by some companies that cooperated with funworld, namely Jim Bean, Pernod, Nokia, AutoBild and also World Wildlife Fund and UNESCO.

=== History ===
The Photo Play Spirit 2.1 was released in 2001 as the standup cabinet of the [[Funworld Photo Play Net Collection Generation|Net Collection Generation]]. Compared to the previous wooden 2000 cabinet, it has a more modern curved appearance, webcam, flatter CRT tube and stereo speakers.

Also improved (or reduced) was the floor space needed for the machine, the fact that the machine has no hard edges, a flatter back side and improved layout internally for easier maintenance.

The 6WEV motherboard suffers from the capacitor plague issue. If you have one, consider recapping it.
Even with recapping, this board is known to very unreliable.

=== Trivia ===

* The Operation Manual for the Spirit 2.1 incorrectly states it has a "ESS 1869 ISA Audio Chip". Both revisions of the 6WEV board (6WEV0 and 6WEV2) have a CMI8738/PCI chip instead.

=== History ===
The Megatouch XL Countertop was released in 1997 as successor or upgrade kit to the [[Merit Megatouch Classic Countertop|Classic Megatouch Countertop]].

While the external appearance is equal to the previous generation the internals have been largely upgraded (for the entire XL line), now using a 486 processor instead of the previous Z80.

Other notorious improvements is the introduction of CD-ROMs as the boot media instead of Flash memory chips and later down the line of the XL history, hard disks, greatly improving the upgrade process. Graphics were upgraded to VGA resolution, permitting the use of more realistic photos and it was now possible to link machines locally and through the use of a modem and phone line.

{{Infobox company|name=Midway Games Inc.|image=|caption=|type=|fate=Defunct|predecessor=|successor=|founded=1958|defunct=2010|people=|headquarters=Chicago, Illinois, U.S.|website=}}
[[File:Midway Touchmaster.png|250px|thumb]]
=== History ===
Midway Games Inc. was established as Midway Manufacturing in 1958 by Henry Ross and Marcine Wolverton in Chicago, Illinois.

The company initially manufactured amusement equipment and became Bally Midway in 1969. In the 70's, it became known in the arcade for games like Pac-Man and Space Invaders. By 1996, it was rechristened Midway Games Inc due to it entering the home console market, but it also released its first touch arcade machine, the Touchmaster, to directly compete with Merit's Megatouch hardware, at one point even selling a conversion kit to put their hardware into a Megatouch chassis. From 1996 to 2000, Midway updated its Touchmaster line yearly, being based on the 68000 processor.

By the late 90's, it became clear that the Touchmaster was never going to have the recognition as Merit. With increasingly more powerful hardware, Midway released one more Touchmaster, the Infinity. A rather powerful PC for touch arcade, it was ultimately unsuccessful. Midway forfeited the Touchmaster platform in 2001, and went defunct in 2010.

=== Software Releases ===
The Touchmaster series (also known as Touchmaster 68k) is ROM-based, so new updates are simply new ROM chips. There is a universal set called <nowiki>''</nowiki>Standard<nowiki>''</nowiki> and there are specific sets for specific states or countries. Starting from the Touchmaster 2000, games for a later Touchmaster can be played on the same hardware - e.g. A Touchmaster 8000 romset will work in a Touchmaster 2000 machine.

The Touchmaster Infinity, being PC-based, uses a harddisk to store its games.

=== History ===
Funword AG, was established in 1980 by Josef Öhlinger in Gmunden, Austria.

The company initially traded game machines, later expanding into software and hardware development. By 1987, it became a general importer for electronic dart game machines. In 1993, the company shifted its focus to developing what they call "socially acceptable products", meaning no porn, gambling or violence.

Their 1995 Photo Play touchscreen entertainment terminal concept became a smash hit. The Photo Play 2000 machine became the market leader in Europe, followed by a decade of growth, high sales and international "Photo Play World Games" competitions. The 2002 Funworld website stated there were 130.000 terminals worldwide, with 30 million annual players playing 1,2 billion games.

With the Apple iPhone coming out in 2007, touch screen arcades machines lost their novelty almost overnight and sales started to go down. In 2010, Funworld faced insolvency and was bought by Quanmax (later named S&T) for EUR 1.9 million. In 2016, S&T decided to retreat from the infotainment market and supported a management buy-out of its Funworld assets. The former Funworld sales director Rainer Eder founded Funworld GmbH. The spin-off however did not meet expectations and was sold at a loss for all Funworld shareholders in 2020.

=== [[Photo Play Software Releases]] ===
[[Photo Play Software Releases|Photo Play software releases]] are divided into 4 categories:

"[[Photo Play Software Releases#PTS-DOS|PTS-DOS]]" - All software releases for the 2000 Generation were released using PTS-DOS (a Russian MS-DOS Clone), hence the name.

"NG" - The "Next Generation" version had two software releases, N.G. 1 and N.G. 2 which were compatible with Net Collection Generation machines. Also known as XPE.

"UPDATE 200x" - Released for Net Collection and Xtreme Generation, these are versions of their SYSTEM counterparts but with lower graphics, for machines with less processing power. Also known as XPO.

"SYSTEM 20xx" - Released for Xtreme and Pro Generation machines, these were the last and more "demanding" versions released. Also known as TULCHAM.

=== Preservation Effort ===
Being the system that started all of the TAP project, there are some preservation efforts ongoing. Unfortunately it's also one of the systems with less documentation with the most part of it being hardware-wise.

Nonetheless, there were also some advances in the software side, all of which you can find a list below:
