Looking for Bartop Plans
(1/3) > >>
Kaytrim:
Hey everyone I need a little help on a project I am planning.  I am going to surprise my Dad with a bartop cab.  However I need to work on the plans and have no idea where to start.  For anyone who has built one and/or has plans drawn up could you send them my way?  I would like to have a joystick and trackball in the CP and use a 15" or 17" CRT.  He likes the classics and Centapeed is one of his favorites.  Not sure if I would need a 8-way joystick or if a 4-way would be enough.  I am not looking at putting fighter games on here and not sure if shumps would be added either.  I want the stick to be fixed 4-way or end up using a 49-way and GPWiz49 for auto mapping by game.  I want this to be as easy for him and his wife to use as possible.

I have a PIII 733 mhz PC with 512 RAM, 10GB hard drive, built in video, creative sound card and a 17" monitor.  I have all the buttons and a T-Stick on hand that would be put in 4-way mode permanently.  I have a trackball coming in the mail.  I also have a GPWiz or KeyWiz that I can put in there.  So as far as hardware I am mostly set.  I just have to decide on either the T-Stick or find a 49-way stick and get the GPWiz49.

I am open to any and all suggestions within the parameter stated above.

Plans are for people who think ahead...

In your case - you'll be looking to do a vertical orientation monitor, a 4 way stick, 2 buttons action buttons and a 2.25" trackball.
