DDR Machine to Stepmania Machine Conversion pt 1

[CowlauncherX]

Looks like Billabs is not a site anymore. Anywhere else you would suggest?

[tapuzronko]

is there a video out there that shows how to upgrade a ddr machine (i.e 3rd mix) to extreme/megamix? do you need to switch parts or just insert a cd and a security module of some sort....?

I JUST found this video. I'm seriously considering buying all the hardware and convincing my local arcade to let me do it for them. I need to watch the video at home though, because I'm currently in class.

hi adam I wanted to know how you launch itg when you turn on then the cab when you have bought the j pac you have had to bring changes to the cab

[WTFseabass]

you cant make a last video of the wiring of the pads to the j-pac? i really need help, i just got one and i dont want to mess anything up. thanks

with college and the fact that my camera broke rescently it is pretty difficult. But, I will try to borrow a friend's vid. camera and record the wiring video

[AdamMACHI]

oh and i think a 8500 or 9000's series is an overkill for a video card just to run stepmania... I remember running stepmania perfectly with no lag on my laptop's intergrated graphics card with 128mb video memory... then again, graphics cards are cheap now and days ^__^

And one more thing about the video card... STAY AWAY FROM ATI CARDS.... or at least from my experience, no matter what kind u use (i use a 4850 with 1GB GDDR5 ram), you get lag issues with stepmania...

[AdamMACHI]

yea, nVidia is where its at, and thanks for the rating. Will post more vids on finishing the convert. probly by this sunday.
