need possible theme ideas for first mame cab
Martijn:
hi, and good luck with the project, i had only a pc in my cab, and installed sf IV pc edition on it. how will you switch between controlls? if i should do that i would use some kind of lpt printer port switch and make the switch somwhere outside the cab in a descret way.
i am google sketchupping a new cab with a lcd(37 inch), based on my old cab one, but way less dept. my old cab with crt was about 100 cm dept and the lcd type is 60
to bad about the inside laminate , but it looks good. also i noticed your lcd bezel, will it be like that with tv logo showing?
if any questions , ask me.

I laminated first as well and just used packing paper with painters tape to cover it and all was fine ;)

yeah the tv logo will be showing, the vizio tv i got has a certain design to it so i had to do it a certain way i think, i ended up making the tv flushed with the bezel. but yeah i wanted to do it without the logo showing but it just seemed easier and a bit more stable to do it the way i had it. i think i can still get a bezel though from like happ or something, ive seen it before, that would only show the screen so i think i have that option if i want to go that way.

yeah someone suggested i use these akishop pcbs from focusattack.com, i was going to use an ipac but i wanted to connect to an xbox 360 and pc. they have a printer port connection attached to them and then from there someone here suggested i connect them to a usb kvm switch so i dont have to manually unplug them in and out when i need to. i havent tried it out yet, but I am wiring the control panel right now so I should know by the end of the week. if that doesnt work, i got a backup plan that i hope will work.
