Hi, I have never posted on the message forums, but have been reading them a lot.

Very nice CP presentation.  I love the raised platform effect for the joy/buttons.

Congratulations on a job well done.

Very nice and clean, especially the CP. I like the MK theme!

Good looking machine. Your control panel rocks and the marquee colours make the whole thing flow nicely.

Very cool first post.

Thanks for the comments guys.  I was going to clean up the room but ended up playing games instead!

Great work! How is the lexan attached to the CP? I see no screws at all.

it looks awesome, but as soon as your buddies want to play street fighter or Marvel vs. Capcom you're going to wish you'd used the 6 button layout.

The plexi on the cp is actually held down firmly by the buttons.  its fine that way and the sides of the plexi have the t molding so the plexi can't get snagged on anything and pull up.

I actually have a regular Street fighter style CP too but its ugly.  If I need to switch, its easy because it has its own IPAC and everything.  Playing all games besides MK series pretty much sucks on the MK CP.  High Kick and High Punch are buttons 1 and 2.

I'm not sure how much work it is because I haven't investigate this yet for my cabinet, but I know you can store custom controls on a per game basis. You could make the default config more accessible to other games and then adjust them for MK.
