Definitely snag the highest resolution capable PC monitor you can... don't even bother with a TV. This is one area where the resolution really DOES make a giant difference, and I'm not usually a video quality whore. |

This was posted at BYOAC back in 2000--- when I saw your post I got nervous! http://www.geocities.com/merlin_topgun3000/starmame.html It makes me sad. :'( but what you want to do seems reasonable.... ;) |

Man, that is ugly. That is a shame. At least what redfivexw wants to do is ok, as long as it can be converted back easily when\if he wants to fix it... |

I once knew a guy who gutted a Star Wars cab and stuck a Nintendo 64 inside. :( Re: "collectors" versus MAMErs, I have to say I'm pretty disgusted at how many people have been buying up Star Wars yokes, and drastically driving up their price, to slap onto MAME cab panels. I have a dedicated working Star Wars that's complete other than the yoke, and I'm probably going to end up resorting to paying more for the yoke than I paid for the complete cab just because MAME cabbers have gone nuts buying them all up. It really, really sucks. |

I've converted a Return of the Jedi to a MAME cabinet. * See: www.marksarcade.com *Actually* Jude's Starwars Hack (hosted by arcade controls.com) is the cheapest way to go. You replace the 2 5K pots with 100K pots and wire them to a standard joystick DB15 cable. Why is it cheaper than the USB hacks you ask? A couple high quality pots can be had for $10 each. But the old pots are probably shot anyway, and you will want to replace them even if you do the USB hack. - Mark * I purchased it without a motherboard, and after 6 months of looking, I could not find a replacement. |
