App to time games.

Silenus · February 25th, 2008, 15:17

Hello everybody.

Again with another request for an app.

I hate doing so many favors.

Well my friend has a videogame club, with a PS3, Xbox360, a couple of Wii´s and other consoles.

He would like to keep track of the time he rents the consoles.

Like 30 minutes is 30 pesos, my question is how would he do that, is there an app that can let alert you when someone on a console´s time has run up??

Hope I made myself clear.

I have never heard of an app...I think this will have to be done manually.

coin slot power connectors

then the console will shut off when the money is up, sorted!

other than that erm, i use a program at home called "speedup alarm" which i use as an actual alarm, you can schedule multiple alarms and itll pop up on the screen when it goes off. Just dont use mp3's with it, cos it tends to buffer overflow

Edit: or if he asks somebody nice enough, they could write him an APP especially for what he wants in VB, prolly take about 10 mins

Thanks Ref.

speedup alarm seems to be a good app.
But they need the money counter too.

I will talk with @ruantec, maybe he can make this.
