Multicade FRONTEND ?????

<< < (6/6)

You sure you don't mean 39-in-1?

What a serious pain in the butt...

No matter which front end you, you're gonna have to make custom screens. For 40 games, that would take a while.

The only way to NOT have to do custom artwork would be if someone made a logo art pack similar to marquees and screenshots.

I've only ever seen this style of multicade frontends. They're ugly as hell.

In the immortal words of Shaggy...

"ZOIKS!!!"

Anyone ever heard the term "mofugly"?

I've been planning on using this style interface for my cocktail when I get it built.  I'm planning on using advmenu since you can use mng files in place of the snaps.  I am going to create animations in Corel Rave similar to the menus shown above for each of the games and convert them to mng files.  This shouldn't be too hard a task since I'm only planning on having ~20 games on the cocktail.  It might be a while until I get around to doing this since my wife and I are expecting our first child in the next few weeks but anyone is welcome to them when I get done.

I'll tell you what I do like about the 3-1, and 4-1 boards. I enjoy that mellow sound loop that plays during the menu. I've only heard this certain loop on the earlier 3 & 4'n'1 boards.

Perchance anyone might have a small recording of that loop?
