Prinler Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Im very new at this. I picked up a mod xbox and have learned how to ftp and install things. oh and get myself in alot of trouble.I have all my emulators on the xbox and would like it to:1: boot to the emulators folder2: make the emulator icons larger - perhaps a better skin for xbmc? This will be going into a home made mame type cab. I have searched for hours and this is cutting severely into my wow time lol any links will help! PrinlerGo Coinops Ignite Showcase!

This will be going into a home made mame type cab. I have searched for hours and this is cutting severely into my wow time lol Hello, here are just quick answers 1. easy, just stand over the emulator folder, bring the contextual menu (white button) then make default, you must also set the option start in program 'window' (ui preference) 2. why don't you catch wide icons ? My turn : I'm modding old cab i want to be vertical only but i need a vertical gui (mame wise), idea anyone ? Edited November 7, 2009 by Garcimak
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 I just did one of those for someone (vertical gui ) he should post it soon he said...he said it all works ok also got more games in it as I couldnt be arsed stripping a few of them

Garcimak Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 you can also try mamedox 1.1 as that lets you rotate the whole gui as well. Thanks fumanchu, i want it simple, since it is only 1P cab, mamedox will do the job before we can enjoy a pimped vertical CoinOps.
ac3t1ne Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 thats cool, i'd love to have a go at making a vertical setup (I think il need to learn to do a vga mod first tho, i wouldnt trust a crt tv tipped on its side )
bulge2 Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 yep ive got the build and it works all good . i post up piccies of my cab when its finished http://www.1emulation.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=31358
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 was only a quick 5min job due to personal requests really..... I had to use the sources from r4 alot though for the games drivers so dats might not work perfectly as alot of games are fixed or added
ac3t1ne Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 hey BP, i just tried this out (curiosity really), might be my tv, but it seems like some games rotate the wrong way! (sonic 3d and golden axe 2, are the ones i tested) although other games rotated the correct way. I hope there will at some point be a way to play Riot without straining my neck though! I am excited about the possibilities if you are still working on a massive CoinOPS XBMC merger thing.. will it be possible to support custom soundtrack playing INGAME by any chance? I realise that might be really hard to do, but that would be just about the best feature EVER .. I understand if its impossible to do though.
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 I didnt setup the horizontal games they prob rotate the wrong way....its for vert games only really and yes riot is one of many you noticed in that build thank iq hehehe
ac3t1ne Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 orite, thats a shame (not that I even have a vertical setup ) the other thing I noticed is that I just got a black screen when I tried this build on my hdtv through component cables, although the games would still boot and everything, just had to navigate the menus blind. That really might be my tv though, its insane lol (sometimes it likes to cut off half the screen, or have rolling lines across everything etc. )
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 didnt setup the hd side he said he only wanted it for vert games on sd...I could patch that stuff in 2mins of course... I could fix the wrong rotation of other stuff in seconds as well but that version is alot behind my real version anyways. It was just for there specific needs due to a constant request. He logged onto MSN and I did it for him in while he waited. Took 2 times longer than it should because he told me wrong way to rotate it but alls good contact the experts they can patch it in for you its about as newbe as it source wise
ac3t1ne Posted November 8, 2009 Posted November 8, 2009 ah i hadnt realised it was just a quick build for specific needs, just read that there was a new coinops of some sort and wanted to try it out, guess i jumped the gun reporting "problems" with it haha
