New Jukebox Software: Arcade Music Box v1.09

[Space Fractal]

Here is a little juke box for lowres arcadecabs with mamewah (wich I using, thanks Minwah) or such installed.

I have added some requested features, like the credit mode (There are 2 credit modes).

but it may have few bugs left, but it work flawless..... If any bugs or any requested features, you can write them on this topic.

==== THIS WAS VERSION F ====


Look for the bottom in the thread for the newest versions.

Looks very promising.  I like the look a lot.  Will have to download and investigate further.

Loaded it onto my cab this morning and gave it a quick (five minute) run through.  I used the default 640x480 skin you provided but the image is stretched off the top of the screen, so I lose the top half of 'Arcade Music Box'.  Didn't see a setting that would cause that but will look around more tonight.

It's very easy to install and use.  I like the fact it uses many of the same buttons as Mamewah.  Good job!

You may need to alter the arcade.cfg file to a better res, that suit your arcade monitor (it created when you say yes with the installer).

I cannot set the monitor hertz in Dark Basic, so I think it use the same monitor hertz, set in desktop.

But it worked fine with to my cab and ArcadeVGA (the old 7200 version).

Thanks.  I figured that was the case.  I'll test it out tonight.

Okay, that worked great.  

Another question: can I select an entire album to be played all at once?

[Space Fractal]

Not yet. But I add this in the future version. I have thinked about it.

This feature will of course only added in the free mode.

[EDIT] This is now added in version F [/EDIT]

[zaphod]

Thanks again.  I've updated my version and it works great.
