Title: Awsome Cocktail Machine with 31"er
Post by: mortacci on September 18, 2005, 12:49:11 pm

My latest creation. This cabinet was an old Atari X's and O's cocktail machine.

Looks good.

As the monitor is so big you might find this hack useful.

That is absolutely amazing, you mirrored my abandoned project from 8 months ago almost completely (the differences were incredibly minor, I used a 27" TV, and my base cocktail was a Dunk Shot), otherwise we even had the exact same controls, albeit layed out differently.

Hi grasshooper, have you had any success on getting the mirror hack working? I am having a tough time trying to get it compiled. Is there a compiled version out there that I could download?

To be honest I haven't tried it and I don't even own a cocktail cab.

I just remember thinking it was a cool idea that ought to be incorporated into standard MAME and obviously it would be ideal for your cab.

Have you tried PMing the author?

No I haven't. Who is Pming and how can I get in touch with Pming?

PM stands for personal message.  You must know how it works as you sent me one. The author's name is lokki.

Wow! Nice machine.  31" - I don't think I've ever seen a VGA that big. What is it supported with? Concrete blocks and rebar?

Very nice!  Where did you pick up a 31" VGA?  ...and did it give you a hernia?  Did you need to remove the monitor housing?

Gateway had a 31" monitor a few years ago. I think 2000 or 2001.
