that guy wins at life, so fuckin funny xd
x-arcade controls on a nicely built cab, and wtf some of them arcade cab's just blow
but i couldnt do any better ><
would probably be cheaper to just use a cheap computer + moniter and some basic arcade controls, then use the gp2x as a HOME arcade cabinet, its a portable gaming system..
hahaha that's not an error! It is actually a quite humorous page about dead links on the byoac website.fatdad said:really funny , i read them all up to there was an error ...some monsters in there.....

Completely forgot about that page, really shows what not to do when building or modifying an arcade cab![]()

Actually, I don't see the problem with using a prefab control panel. I know some people who have built perfectly fine cabinets, but bought X-Arcade panels simply to save some time and work (and to avoid a mess of wires!) because they already knew from the start that their main focus would be fighter-type games. Although some may want to take MAME to it's extreme using a massive "frankenpanel" with all sorts of joysticks, spinners and whatnot, but if you decide early in the design process what type of games you want to play, perhaps you'll find that a prefab panel suits your needs and can save you some time and work (not to mention the hassle of wiring problems).freddykreuger666 said:x-arcade controls on a nicely built cab
:lol: real TV ...berighteous said:I just got my gp2x with TV out cable and have seen a HUGE slowdown in Mame playing certain games vs playing without the TV out. For example, Metal slug s-l-o-w-s way down when I'm in TV out mode, but plays much better when I turn TV mode off. Zaxxon looks awful on the TV, the screen scrolls are all jittery, but it looks fine playing on the gp2x screen.
Is this a function of the emulator or the GP2X in general? I'm on Firmware 3 and a 32 inch lcd hdtv. Haven't tried it yet on a real TV.

Hmm, I use the BOB for my TV out and MAME freezes about half the time for me, but runs flawlessly when un-docked from the BOB ... strange indeed ..
If I set the frameskip to 1 or higher it plays ok on the TV out, but if it's set to the default <=2 auto it s-l-o-w-s down to a crawl. very weird. It plays fine with TV out off.
Of course, it also cuts off the top and bottom of the screen in games like Pacman, so it's useless for a mame box unless you mount the TV sideways. oh well. Was a cool idea, anyways.
BTW Toobin' looks TERRIBLE scaled to the screen on the TV out! (L+R, L+R)
We need to convince the author to get the 2nd processor running for graphics scaling and processing and have it default TV out to 640x480...![]()
