Hi there,

I have had a MAME cabinet for a few years - and it mostly works fine.   But now I have just had a baby, I haven't got the time to get it all set up properly (really just configure the front end / emulators / etc) ---- so I am looking for someone to help me with it.

The gig would be to hop on the PC via remote control (TeamViewer, Remote Desktop, etc), and then get the emulators set up and working.  That's pretty much it.   I of course will make myself available for testing / plugging things in / etc.

I made a post on UpWork (where I have a strong profile), so we could do it through that so you'll be sure I won't skip out!   But if you just wanted to do PayPal, that's fine also.

Key things I am looking for are (most of which is already working... just a bit janky):
- get MAME working (currently only problem is the "exit game" stuff).
- get my Lightgun working (should be ok - just need to make sure Mame always sets the buttons),
- get a jukebox (MP3) player set up (already in there, just make sure it works).
- get vJoy (virtual joystick emulation) to play PC games Doom2, DOA5 and MKX.  (Mostly working...)
- get an Atari Jaguar emulator set up,
- get a Sega Model 2+3 emulator set up.


Using Maximus as a front-end, and 2x IPACs.  But happy for any setup really.

Feel free to ask questions!
