Killer Instinct 2 MAME (update 11-3-10 now with moar pix!)
Malenko:
I dont really wanna name it anything else, I dried up my creative juices with Mortal Kabinet lol
no real progress pix, all I did was pull out the dead 25" arcade monitor and mount the 36" Sharp TV (with component input)
KI2 cabinet, stripped of its internals:
Sharp 36" SDTV with COMPONENT input:
moved the top mounting bracket up about 5 1/2"s:
moved the bottom mounting bracket down about 5 1/2"s:
Those holes for all 8 OLD holes were plugged with plastic "chrstmas tree" plugs and look stock. No pix of those, its night time and the lighting sucks in here.
Ignore my fat belly, but heres the 36" monitor mounter VERTICALLY in the cab:
Malenko:
Here's inside the control panel:
The orange button turns the TV on and off.
Here's inside the Marquee area:
the monitor I was setting everything up with on the chair and the TV , both running Pac-man. You cant really tell, but I was running the standard windows VGA driver at the time, I thought it was a neat picture.
My attempt at showing how big the horizontal games look on the TV mounted vertically, in case you're wondering its the equivalent of about a 24" arcade monitor:
Here's pacman all HUGE-ified:
he's bigger then a quarter!
Malenko:
these are just more gratuitous pix. There are some issues, like I don't have a front end set up yet AND the bottom of the screen is too low, about an inch is out of site, which for most games is no problem, but for Donkey Kong and Galaga where you're at the bottom, its under the wooden cross beam that holds the glass.
Its not a big deal to the player, because you can look down and see it, but to anyone standing behind the player or not right next to him, they cant see it. Im going to try and Adjust the TV to move shrink the pic vertically, then move it to the top, just havent had time /wall of text.
I need to add something to block the light/act like a bezel:
pretty good lookin picture for a SDTV:
Spirit Win! lol
DONT judge by these pix, the screen is clear and very easy to read, but the Iphone is a ---smurfy--- camera.
emphatic:
Awesome monitor!
killerinstinct:
looks really nice
did you have to go in a service menu from your tv
to create a good picture over the whole screen?
