JUST WANTED TO SHARE PART 2 !...(New cabinet)
« on: January 08, 2003, 02:16:26 pm »
Hello everyone,
Here is the new Mamecast.
ANY comments,questions are always welcome ::) ;D.





Here is the original thread that has more pictures.
http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=3712






These pictures dont even look that good because I took them early and now i dont have any camera to get final pictures(my little brother left those 8 for $1 batteries inside the camera and those batteries melted.Yes i am crying now but i could always buy a new one :P).

I WILL try to get some betters pictures.
Like from the sides just like everyone else :D.

Hyiu(if you are reading that is),
I have exactly what you wanted from me :).
Drop me a line and i will send you the file.
mamemans@yahoo.com
any other request,email or post here and I will send :).

YO...
thanks for the word dude...i could send the .jpg of the panel but still have to wait on the marque.
Funny story...i was working on my brother's super computer and after i was done with the marque i go the kinkos to print and everything goes well.
BUT,now the actual marque is sooooo huge(low memory)..my own computer cant even open the file(brother is away and his pc is password protected >:().
So,check your email and you have the CP overlay.

Wow thats nice SNAAAKE good job. I just hope mine turns out half as good as yours. Oh yeah thanx for the pads. Thanx.

NO problem :).Enjoy playing games with REAL arcade joystick :D and thanks for the comment.

Nice work brother!  8)

Thanks for the word dude 8).

That is a very nice looking arcade machine.  The marquee looks a little tall for my taste, but still one of the nicest looking cabs.  Good Job!
What is that pappy?

Snaaake,
great job, the cab looks sweet....


art questions... I'm fiddling around with finally making a marquee, and been finding good stuff over at gamegen... but most of the art's too small... rastering the stuff up to size in photoshop usually makes blurry images, (I know my way around the app, but not an expert)...

Did you use stuff from there, or create your own?  if it was from art, how'd you resize / etc?

Thanks for the comment buddy :).
YEAh..the big marque business is little odd(some people think) but i wanted this huge marque for a long time because you can put more people in there(fighters..muahah).

well,first you look for PRETTY images and if you dont find some you like then you take that small one and start a new picture in paintshop pro.
THEN,you paste that small image in a new file(atleast 300dpi) then stretch the file so its big enough then you save a .jpg copy and now you have a bigger file that looks pretty good(good enough).
you can also use emulators to take screen shots from actual games and use those.
Captain america,ryu,spiderman,wolverine on that marque are all from actual game screenshots.
IF you are interested,i have some VERY cool looking background files that i might wanna share..drop me a line and i will send them to you if it helps you get around your artwork.YET....thanks for the kind word :D.
Another thing,print your CP overlay on vinyl.That will take care of jaggy/pixeled thingys.Vinyl is cheap :o.
