elquesogrande Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Yes - Fallout is not an arcade game, but I wanted to set up a cabinet from the Fallout universe anyway. Consider this a tribute. The cabinet is an old NBA Jams game that an arcade owner had converted over to a bowling game that no longer worked. It was a bit beat up (and cheap) and I thought that the Fallout theme would also make up for any nicks, dents or flaws. http://imgur.com/a/CQwe1#0 Graphics came from dozens of web sources and were mashed together to cover up for low resolution issues. The controls are your basic X-Arcade Tankstick with some home-grown graphics overlaid. This was my first build and I didn't have the ability or tools to build my own controls - this was my best solution for a first go-around. These pics highlight a lot of detail due to lighting adjustments. Outside of the Vault Boy colors, everything else blends in very well. (It's not as busy as it might look in these pix.) There you go. First cabinet and I'm starting to load it with Hyperspin. Off to the rest of the forum to find some noob Hyperspin help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Not sure if you want a thems song for your cab but there's an old obscure Police song (didn't appear on any of their official albums) called Fallout... you could sample it and use it with your cab.

elquesogrande Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 Love it! Very cool!!! Have a video of it in action? Not yet - I'm still sorting through how to piece together Hyperspin + MAME + the controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evil eye Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 That came out pretty good man! Love the Fallout theme, goes good with an old cab and you don't have to fix any damage like you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolbrez67 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I love Fall out I have every game of the series. I made some themes for it a long time ago. You should have the startup sound be Ron Pearlman saying War war never changes. Also make your own startup movie it would be great. Here is so old photos of the fallout themes. http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/album.php?albumid=29&page=3 I look forward to seeing your progress.

You did a beautiful job with the graphics - it looks fantastic! Any chance you'd post some of the art? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
