CCB0x45:
Been working on my CP about a week, its nothing special but im proud of it, considering I have no wood working skills at all.
Its 4 player cause its going in my Frat House, and its got 2 Act Lab TV guns to go with it for the final cabinet... Been wiring it all night tonight to an IPAC4. We are gonna hit up some serious golden tee (pc version) tourneys on it! BTW I have House of the Dead 2 and Virtua Cop 2 for PC, are there any other good PC lightgun games besides the mame ones?

I hate to be the one to break this to you, but player 3 and 4 are not supposed to have angled joysticks. It is a mistake that a few BYOAC members made, and then it got copied over and over again by other BYOAC members.

No real game is like that. None.

Panel looks great except for that.

I angled my sticks, not by mistake, but because they work better that way. I had several people try it out, and everyone preferred up to be forward from their standing position.

No real game is like that, but then no real game has a control panel like most of these custom made ones either. Most those 4 player arcade machines seemed to have been made with a floor space concern, and not a comfort one.

That being said...

It may be different on a panel such as the OP's. On my panel, I have players 3 & 4 positions cut at 45

Who cares? He never said he was patterning it off of a real game.



Kudos man. It looks great!

Looks great man and I prefer the 45 degree angles on the 3rd and 4th player but....

won't the corner be jabbing the frat boys in the nads?

Either way, great job!
