Mame cabinet build day 6

Not too much done here, just finished up the upper portion of the cabinet, routed out for the t-molding and touched up the paint. finally installed the t-molding. Then like a dumbass i stepped on my plexiglass for the marquee and scratched it up. so i've got to re-cut that. Let me know what you think.

@TheRogueMonk I switched to just updates.... money was an issue and so was time. I think the next vid is just Mame cabinet update or something like that. Go check my page out and see it completed!

what's the progress now? (Jan 2009)

[hwoarong13]

Progress is waiting patiently lol. In about two or three weeks i will start working on it again. I've done a few things here and there since the last vids, just nothing you would notice or worthy of making a vid for. I updated the speakers wiring (the old one was crackling a lot) and put a new Control panel overlay on it(without the white dots) Just waiting on money (had an expensive christmas). Stay tuned videos will come soon as i get my taxes back. I can't wait

I meant i would try using a Dremel tool next time instead of the router.

You should check out Maximus Arcade if you're looking for a front end that does almost EVERYTHING. (I use it to run MAME 32, SNES, Nebula, Genesis & PC games.) It's $25 to buy (which kind of sucks), free to try for 30 days, but it's pretty slick.... I'm working on making my first custom skin for it with a Street Fighter themed intro video...

I've got it programmed to run Mame 32 on a windows xp platform. I've been checking out mala but if you setup Mame 32 right it gets the job done just fine. It will have a full romset for mame version 0.125 roughly 7,000 roms i think (most will be playable some won't due to control layouts) but it will be capable.

Slick.... so, are you going to use a front end to launch MAME, or is this going to be a MAME cab that plays strictly Mortal Kombat?

Very nice job so far!

[nintenalex]

very nice again

keep at it
