Title: My new Cab..The VERTICAL ARCADIUM
Post by: Lord Hiryu on June 13, 2006, 05:36:52 am

Hi guys.
This is my new creation...the Vertical Arcadium.
Is my first build from scratch cab, based in the old Taito Cabs...(Jungle Hunt).
The computer is an old PC AMD 800Mhz, GeForce WinFast and runs Ms-dos with Advmame and Advmenu.
I-Pac. mouse Hack, 3" TB, 6 buttons per player, 2 IL Mag-sticks, Mitsubishi 21" PC monitor in vertical position and the "Anti-Credit", a tricky engine able to change from virtual credits to real credits....(specially used for all of us who spend all the time playing for free in our houses... ;D)
There's a link to the Spanish site "marcianitos".
There's a lot of photos of the process too, but.....the site is in Spanish. ;)

as always, you know your color choices and art design are fantabulous.
