What paint do you use for the inside??

I used two coats of Kilz primer and two coats of Rust-Oleum semi gloss latex paint. Applied with a smooth foam roller.

Got it free of charge from a client. I ordered the marquee from Lucian, a lot of guys here use his services and the quality seems top notch.

Getting ready to move the computer parts over to the cabinet. Anything I should know with grounding etc? I'm not much of an electrician.

Haha thanks, I posted those from my phone and they got flipped for some reason. Everything fit fine! Just got the marquee from Lucian and I'm about to put it on. Question, I was playing Pac-man for a bit and the joysticks felt a bit odd, is that the case generally if they're not in the 4 way position? Felt a bit odd with Street Fighter too, I think I remember reading about an octogonal plate for the Sanwa sticks maybe a need that? Thanks

Odd as in stiff movement? Or squared motion

That marquee arrive yet Yardley?

Just put it on the plexi, waiting for it to dry. I think I can feel a nasty bubble through the top sheet :(

I think more of a squared motio with street fighter. With pac man more of a lack of control/response.

You could always poke the bubble with an exacto knife...it won't hurt the graphic.

Yeah I think it's a preference kind of thing. Octagons will allow for better circular moves in fighting games from what I hear, but it all comes down to what you're used to. Pac man works best in four way mode.

Gonna have to try that, there are other bubbles but the one bubble is really bad. I had a hard time with this material. Does it usually get that wrinkly in the shipping tube?

Hey question for y'all, I set up a shifted key on the minipac for tab so that I can change settings when in a game but my select/enter key won't work when in the configuration menu of MAME. It works fine for everything else, what gives?
