Lucian045 Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 Hey all. Showing off my hyperpin cabinet The Pin Reaper! First thing I want to say is thank you to all the members on this forum and table creators for making this possible. Second I want to thank Jack with Arcadesrfun for his work on the cabinet. Being a Dad of 2 small children and a business owner I have very little free time to build a cabinet. I decided to check out Jack at ArcadesRFun and see about a flat pack being shipped. We got to talking and long story short, I had Jack build me the cabinet. I purchased the monitors which were shipped to him and he assembled and wired the cabinet for me. The workmanship is truly amazing. If you're pressed for time and want to play first then tinker later, I highly recommend going through Jack and having him build the cab for you. I plan on adding some additions to the cab along with custom artwork which I am designing and printing as I own a Sign company with a 54" digital printer. Here are my computer specs: INTEL|CORE I7 960 3.20G MB GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R 2x VGA ZOTAC|ZT-20109-10P GTS250 1GIG PSU CORSAIR|CMPSU-750TX 750W MEM 2Gx3|CORS TR3X6G1600C9 SSD 120G| OCZ OCZSSD3-2VTX120G CPU COOL CM|RR-UV8-XBU1-GP LOGITECH Z623 2.1 SPEAKERS XP PPROFESSIONAL SP3 Playfield monitor: HP Digital Signage 42" Display (1080p) (Awesome monitor, rated for long hours of operation with low heat and very smal bezel) Backglass 32" Samsung Monitor (720p) DMD 19" ViewSonic Currently the cab is using a IPAC controller only. I plan on adding an LEDWiz at some point. Tilt bobs for nudging but plan on maybe going a differnt route as getting these to work well is very tricky. No force Feedback but plan on adding that in the future. Standard plunger hooked up to a microswitch and launchball button. The lockdown bar is an original widebody. I had Jack add a custom Bezel for the playfield and backglass/DMD. It was routed from a matte finished plastic which has some texture to it. Very nice look. I plan on adding my name below the DMD once I finsh the artwork. The artwork is coming along nicely and I can't wait to show it off. Once the artwork is completed and installed, I will finish the cab off with custom made side rails. Here are some pictures of the cabinet. Game runs silky smooth with settings on halfway for alhpa and full texture mapping. A little frame drop on a few tables with UVP but I need to update them so can't really say if it's the computer or not. I still have some tweaking to do in the registry and bios. I'll have a video up this weekend and hopefully some artwork to show.

mameman Posted May 21, 2011 Posted May 21, 2011 looks great, nice work. if it was mine, i think i would put the name level. that way it would show more of the ball and his hand.

Lucian045 Posted May 21, 2011 Author Posted May 21, 2011 one word.. superb Is this vector or bitmap? A little of both. The drawing is a bitmap image and the rest is vector artwork with a few touches to make it look a little more natural. When it's printed the lettering will really pop off the background.
Lucian045 Posted May 21, 2011 Author Posted May 21, 2011 looks great, nice work. if it was mine, i think i would put the name level. that way it would show more of the ball and his hand. It needs to move over a little, it was 1:30 in the morning when I uploaded it and I never really proofed it. Thanks for pointing that out to me.
Lucian045 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Posted May 23, 2011 Here is a super fast video of my daughter playing the cab. Artwork will be installed tomorrow night, then I will upload some pics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4fERFO5o1w
Numiah Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Nice video, I liked the way you encouraged her while playing ! **Each pinball machine is a tiny universe... that we control** My Build Overview My Computer Specifications
Lucian045 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Printed the artwork and applied it to the Cab. Material is an Air Release (No bubbles, not possible, have to be incompetent to get any bubbles, lol) printable gloss media with a clear gloss laminate. Colors really pop. Added the side rails and lockdown bar to finish it off. All that's left is moving it into the corner and adding the name above the DMD display. Enjoy.
Numiah Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Jezus !! That looks stunning !!!! **Each pinball machine is a tiny universe... that we control** My Build Overview My Computer Specifications
