Title: My Cabinet is Finally Complete! (Lots of pics)
Post by: clickhea on April 16, 2009, 08:39:38 pm
Id like to thank everyone here who took the time answering my questions.  This is my first time doing any sort of wood working.

I wish i would of took progression pics now.  My next project is going to be a touch screen jukebox.

any questions/comments are welcome.

ps, all the software/emus have not yet fully been setup.. thats going to be another time consuming adventure.

Do you have any pics of the trackball unlit, specifically the acrylic surrounding it?

Wow dude - nice job! What are the final specs? Monitor? Other parts? Setting up the software and emulators is the toughest part for me. I wish there was a comprehensive tutorial or FAQ somewhere for everything including how to interface it all with the front end.

Awesome work - I bet it feels great to be done!

Looking good.  Do you have your button layout that you used?  Looks similar to the one I am testing now.  It was originally a 6 button layout and I added the 7th button.  Curious to see a layout of yours.

That is the same one I am using, how did you determine where to put your 7th button?

I like the cabinet shape. Is it a Lusid cab?

Nice job on the cab. I noticed the buttons on side of the CP, are you also going to be running Future Pinball or Visual Pinball ?

the cab shape came from plans i found on the net, which i modified a tiny bit as i went along.


and yes the side buttons on the panel are for future/visual pinball.

iam trying to figure out how to configure the pcsx2 and saturn emulator in maximus arcade.  once i do iam going to post a better updated video showing more of the cab.
