Hey guys this is my Arcade Cab I made about a month ago. Using GameEx for the front end interface. Here is a progress video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amc7OnGl2EU

I have started work on a new series of logo packs based upon a template used to create many of the docklets for Rocket Dock found in various galleries on Deviant Art site and inspired by KRC's Ultimate Character Logos. Of course, these are 2x - 4x bigger than docklet size at 1024x1024 px. Here are a few examples... ]

Hi flightsim, generally you have two options to force a 640x480 resolution with an nVidia graphics card. Either you will need "Soft15Khz" and hope that your Nvidia is accepted or you will need "Powerstrip" which is not Freeware, but for testing, you can download a Trial-Version. It MAY happen, that you will still need "Powerstrip", even if "Soft15Khz" is working, as there are sometimes problems with Interlaced Resolutions. You need to be aware, that you need a Interlaced 640x480 Resolution, which is different from the "normal" progressive 640x480 Resolution. This is where "Powerstrip" comes in, as you can setup such a Resolution for sure. I can confirm, that this works, as it is my setup in my MAME-Cab with a Nvidia Card.

Oh no - that's a shame - there are around 100 of us

Nice update jackhammersalm. Thanks for the shoutout! So I'm not sure if you're still looking for suggestions or not, but there's something else that's occurred to me. You mentioned in your most recent post that one of the things you fight is the burnout of maintaining a regularly updated blog. This is totally understandable. Currently each of your entries is in a "magazine style" format in which one blog post contains several articles. You even maintain regularly occurring columns and whatnot. It's a reasonable format, but for short-attention span(and time-starved) bastards like myself, it means that I'd probably read a single post in several shorter increments. So what if rather than taking the approach that each post is an entire issue of a magazine, you took an approach that each post is a single article within the magazine? Each recurring column could appear as single posts, and each individual post could focus exclusively on a single topic (a single game review, a cabinet building feature, a single community update, etc.). This would be great for attention span (and time) deprived persons like myself, but I also think it might help to avoid the burnout associated with trying to keep up with generating huge monolithic posts. You could certainly still feature a month-end "magazine-style" recap, but in it you could maybe write up a general month-end summary with links back to the individual articles appearing during that month. Just a friendly suggestion, and naturally you'll do what you feel is best for the blog.
