A big thanks to whoever wrote arcade jukebox 8.
« on: October 29, 2004, 09:12:03 pm »
I downloaded this the other day and I was very impressed. It works, it works well. It requires no voodoo to get it to work. The only suggestions I could possibly give is to maybe mention somewhere how to change the skins (oh, and an exit and shut down command would rock too!).

I am going to build my own jukebox now. Don't laugh, but I will be converting a Sprint 2!!!!!

How are you going to implement the steering wheel into your juke box. As well as what happens when your drunk friends try to drive your juke box?

Things you have to watch out for buddy We don't want any Drive Drive Revolutions accidents on your hands now do we?

No, I am converting my cruddier one, the one I already started parting out. I already sold the panel and the transformer off of it. The Sprint 2 cabinet is actually already shaped a whole lot like a certain class of juke cabinets, which is why I think it would make a great choice.

Also it has big speakers from the factory. The large monitor area is perfect for a monitor, lights, buttons, and all sorts of other fanciness.

Now the only thing is that I must avoid the temptation to scrape the paint off the Sprint 2 bezel and reuse it. Part of me says "no one needs this bezel, you are probably only doing the 3rd Sprint 2 conversion in the history of the world). The other part of me just can't do it, and will keep the bezel in my closet for the next 50 years.

Bah I still think you should grab the wheel and install a horn button to beep in selections :). But for your marquee issue Just pick up some flimsy Lexon it will cost you a grand total of about 2 bucks. And your Sprint 2 is saved :). As for this progy how user friendly is it?

The first time you run it you have to show it your MP3 directory. That is the only setup required unless you want to remap the keys, which you can do from the ini file.

I'd really like to see that......would definitely be a one-of-a-kind juke.
