Mayhem

Found this nice little on line battle game for some quick fun .. quite addictive ... http://mayhem101.mybrute.com/ Had a go to day and it was quite good ..

Must admit its not easy this time I'm trying to learn to feather touch and see how it comes out. When doing it lightly you hardly see the work your doing (or it could be because i have bad light) any way i tried doing this with the lowest dremmel points ... After a second look i then re did the head with a larger point to make it stick out more. I think its a fine line between what looks good and what doesn't lol ... Then added a CCFL tube just to test it out for idea's ... Its so dammed hard taking good photos of this stuff lol ...

i dunno if it was a request or more over was there one lol. the only way i get them to work in game ex properly is Via mouse macros but it sucks seeing all that go on lol .. so a wrapper would be better if there was one. if not yes please its a request lol ...

Would be good if you could do sub folders as a option as well for pSX collection.

why have 1 or 2 when you have them all (evil laughter)

This is a very fast dirty test to check out lighting on the alien designs. Just to see what it would look like. I can see the 3mm led's really are not enough to light up a full panel so ill have to try out some 5mm led's next to see what effect they will have. The 3mm btw have been drilled into the plastic but like all things that come from Hong Kong only 1/2 of them work lol .... So i need to do more work lol .. still not good enough lol ... that's life. I have a play around some more.

You drag and drop the old 32 bit key (reg files) onto the GameExx64Reg.exe in gameex folder (e.g C:\Program files (x86)\Gameex\ or C:\Gameex\ ) GameEx and it works. Just restart game ex and all done.

one bows down once again ;0 ... thks .. as for above ... yeh i payed for it as well ... but i relay should pay for win rar as well ... i have been using it for ni on 10 years + lol

Im still learning and once i get it down to what i would consider "oky" then ill work on the cp. as is though i still need to keep practising.

Learning the basics of etching and working on some plastic just to test out my bad skills. ive never done anything like this before so i just jumped in with both feet and made my own dremmel holder and spent 20min testing out my skills .. My god does your arm feel like it's just gone 10 round with some woman's (some men's in today's climate as well) favourite toy ...... p.s I feel my tennis elbow come back very soon !!!!! Pics below of my rubbish attempts lol ....

I can get dolphin working but im using Macro's scripts to do it all via mouse clicks which is fine but not the perfect answer. IS there a wrapper for dolphin or a better FE for it that allows for cmd's to be run properly. Problem is when doing 5 to 10 games for it via macro's in fine but when you start hitting more games it gets a little hard esp is the screen res changes as the mouse coordinates don't match.

This is the PC shelf installed and ready to go. as you can see it comes out quite far giving enough room to work on it. It can all so detach and allow the pc to be moved else ware to be worked on. All so close up pics of some of the controls with in the cp. There is still the wiring to do yet but that will be done later on .... That's all for today. I need to know work on the back box and its going to take some time.

The Frame is back and i very happy with it. I can now start to crack on with the other bits that need doing. Here is a few PIcs in the state of play its in now any way.

Yeh that's why i designed it so that you can slip it on and off hehe. I suppose your right ill wait till the frame comes back. My lasses face dropped today when i suddenly pooped out and said hmm not to sure ... Its like i was saying to her i was leaving lol ...

Its on BYOAC hehe has been from the start of the build. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=88461.0 Now i was considering doing leds in the ball tops but to be real honest i think its fairly pointless. Ive been spending a few days working on the cp now and to be im not happy with it. haha Im thinking i have built it all wrong and it just does not feel right in my eye. I should have built it in two parts on the inside with a separate section for the CP and the Keyboard. All so the LCD section doesn't look as good as it could have been. So what i might do once its all complete is re do the CP section and make it more rounded and in 2 separate sections. I don't know if most people feel like this once they built these things from the ground up or what. Im all so still waiting for the frame to come back from the painter so that i can crack on with the rest of the build. hehe

Just got my 1/2 bugged camera back so here some photos of the cp so far. Hopefully there a little better. If fitted some more stuff but there is still a lot more work to do.

No its high def .... lol seriously Im running at 1024 res though as if its any higher it gets hard to touch things on it ... Its used for many things such as juke box mode and giving info on games running and hopefully more later on. I haven't worked to much with the software yet but now that we can use custom menus on game ex ill be trying my hand at moving the menus on to the second screen on the cp so you you can touch and play hopefully. We will ahve to wait and see. I dont think any thing like this has been attempted before. There are two screen arcade systems but not like this. For more info on how im building this and more updates ive posted a log of the build over here -> http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=88461.0 You can ask questions on there and ill answer them for you.

these are the front of the cab -> this is were the pc will seat .. haven't started on the side yet .. Old pics below -> And the framework is at the sand blasters at ....

Lol now that shine has taken hours of work lol ...

yeh im not putting on just yet till i decide on art work ... I dont know weather to scribe a alien onto the plastic and light it up or to go for art work .....

a little more work to do on the Cp by here we go ... any thoughts .....

ah well im partly sponsored by them so ... ill go for the u-hid ...

cool cool cool ....... once i get payed again ill be ordering that i think,,,

OH yeh babby know i need that ........ Ill be ordering that asap ... Now idealy iff game ex could do this it would be prefect : The abilty to disable / enable Certain buttons for say Pinball. So that if you switch to a pin ball emulator the Device would then actvate via a command allowing it to switch on the tilt buttons and then when leaving the pin ball emulator turn them back off as not to interfeace with other prorams ...... nice little option there.
