Title: Anyone using an Xarcade Joystick? Interested in skins?
Post by: Cadder on January 09, 2008, 06:35:54 am
Greetings, users.

Over the past couple of years I have been "tinkering" with a Mame box that I've never quite got around to finishing the hardware for... but that's another story. Meantime, I've been using Doscad/Wincab Jukebox on the same machine, and unsurprisingly, the machine gets used more as a jukebox than a MAME box.
However, I have done the hard part - and that is configuring my dual-joystick Xarcade controller to control DWJ in a coherent fashion, and even gone so far as to create a skin (OK, it's not created from scratch, it's a mod of the "main" skin).

I was just wondering if anyone else is using this type of controller?

I'm presently working on a CD-based version of the same skin (this will need work from the ground up). If anyone is interested, I'll upload the skins when they're done.

I am in the process of completing the finishing touches to my Mameroom cabinet with which I have used the x-arcade xxl panel.  I have read a lot of negatives on this board with regards to the controller, however I have no complaints, however still very much an amateur and have no other controllers to compare it to.  Anyway - if you do have skins or themes I would definitely be interested.  I was thinking of making my own for Maximus Arcade which is what I use for my frontend.  What software do you use for the jukebox - I have a ton of songs on itunes and would be interested in using my cab for this also?

I thikn I would be interested in skins. I have not received my XXL yet but I did have the intention of painting it or getting a skin on it.

ummm.. maybe I should've been more specific.

I'm happily using DWjukebox (since this IS posted in the Dos/Wincab forum...)... and I was referring to skins for that particular app configured for an X-arcade, not skinning the Joystick itself.
