[GALERIE] Ma machine d'arcade

[BenthienDK]

Pour commencer, veuillez pardonner les mauvais français, je suis Dane et laisser moi sur google translate

La machine elle-même sera une machine d'arcade slimline avec un écran plat, un de mes compatriotes ont été tellement agréable de télécharger ses dessins de bâtiment sur une machine de protection du corps ici : http://www.koenigs.dk/mame/draw.htm

Il y a des dessins autocad et de pdf pour l'art et de la disposition réelle.

Les listes seront être cloués sur avec un pistolet de scellement et un peu de colle à bois.

[BenthienDK]

Lorsque vous peignez le bois, il faut juste retenir que les pages doivent Flip...Il a oublié de nous, donc il a été basé sur celui à l'intérieur de la page..

[BenthienDK]

L'écran est un 22 "moniteur à écran plat et la lumière provient d'une vieille lampe de bureau.

Bon matériel solide, dans l'espoir de conduire les émulateurs neufs

6 messages diferrents juste pour mettre des photos, wah! t'y vas fort dis-donc! :lol!:  
(tu sais, tu utiliser la fonction edit dans ce genre de cas)

sinon, les travaux sur ta borne on l'air de bien se passer, bonne chance pour la suite

au fait,, met pas des photo aussi grande, sinon, on ne peut pas voir l'integralité de la photo
y'en a même une où sait pas ce que tu avais photographié car l'objet est hors champ :lol!:

[BenthienDK]

Oui, partage les bons messages vers le haut, donc vous pouvez voir les différentes sections dans le projet.

:lol!:  je n'avais pas vu, c'est ce que vous obtenez de s'asseoir et écrire quand vous êtes fatigués le soir...Je passerai juste pour que vous puissiez voir l'image entière :sleep:  

Et il y aura donc juste quelques photos supplémentaires tout au long de la journée.

* Alors, j'ai réduit images:-)

Allrighty, will write in English instead, I know Bing and Google translate isn't the best and my own French is not very good I'm afraid  

When selecting the hardware, I was kinda tempted to just buy a raspberry pi, since it's much cheaper, than buying an actual gaming grade computer, but then again, that would mean limiting myself to a unix MAME frontend for the raspberry and perhaps a jukebox..and after watching what the hyperspin frontend and the emulators like ie. Dolphin could do, I went for the full monty..so to speak. :cheers:  Powerfull, yet not all that power consuming hardware.

Regarding OS, there where a few obvious choices, like win 7 and win 8.

I'm most comfortable using win7 and I don't know if all emulators actually could run in win 8, so I went with windows 7.

But if anyone want to give win 8 a try, Microsoft just released windows 8.1, which I hear good things about.
Only thing with the 8.1 is that you need to go through windows 8 app store to upgrade an existing win8 installation to 8.1.
But being an IT professional, I prefer clean solutions, so I know this workaround exists: http://www.askvg.com/fix-windows-8-genu ... stallation, I would personally prefer this solution, if I where to use win8.

Anyhows, windows 7..That's pretty straightforward to install..and with a little trick and the new hardware supporting the UEFI, (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface, replacing BIOS), you can get it to boot just as fast as an if you had win 8 installed.
I used this guide to make a bootable win7 usb-pen installation:

Takes about ten seconds to boot.

We debated using a pvc plate as screen protector, or just fit the frame to fit the actual screen, but we ended up fitting a pvc plate, to get the original look..and since we didn't use a touch screen..

Also on this pic is the first holes drilled for the buttons on the control panel, we printed out the cad drawings from:

http://www.koenigs.dk/mame/draw.htm

And used as a template for the joystick and 6 buttons.

Also, you can see the side buttons (which will be all black) to be used for pinball games..

[BenthienDK]

I wanted a hidden keyboard drawer, it's also in the original drawings and is pretty easy to make using standard drawer fittings, should be almost invisible when it is painted and mounted.

[DarkEagle37]

Very nice cabinet
And a good config for all emulators

[BenthienDK]

Thank you  , should run all you throw at it..

[BenthienDK]

Used a spray painter to give it the first layer of black, gloss 40, paint:



And the keyboard drawer:


The plexiglass screen protector, messured of the screen with tape..the little piece of tape you can see, is for the IR bar, for lightguns, more about them a little later :study:  

[Faviendesbois]

Very nice cab ! I have exactly the same LCD Screen for my bartop project so here's my question, how will you turn on the screen? Are you gonna make a special hole on the plexi or are you gonna plug a dedicated button to the screen?

[BenthienDK]

I will use a usb powersawing shin, you can get them in local stores in Denmark, found one on the net, I'm sure your local harware shop have one also: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POWER-DOWN-EX ... 635wt_1214

You can set the IPAC to react to key combos, so when you press, for example, the coin and player2 buttons down at the same time, the pc will shut down.

When the pc shuts down, the shin will turn off the marquee, screen and whatever else is connected to it.

Now, when you start the computer (by setting it to turn on at keypress (in your uefi or bios)) it will turn on all these things, so the screen should come on by itself.

[BenthienDK]

After 4x coats of paint:


The IPAC


Now it looks like an arcade machine:

[BenthienDK]

I promised I'd get back to the light guns, found and bought these:

In red and blue, like the buttons.

They have good reviews and feels solid when held (I've not gotten a chance to try them out yet).
