  1. That's really cool of you bro!!! Thanks man ?
  2. Not sure if you want to or planning to but I love those cartoony shoot em ups aka Cute em Ups, best known are the parodius series, I havent started yet but want to give these Cute em Ups their own genre field in my collection so I can make a playlist of these, would be great to have a video with these as I haven't seen it around.
  3. Hot damn, its Epic all over! Great work \m/
  4. Wow brother that looks amazing! Really impressed by this, I hope you can make this for BigBox as well someday, I never used Hyperspin before as I rolled into the community through Launchbox. I subscribed to your channel as well Your cabinet and marquees remind me a bit of the ones we made for the arcade cabinets project and the redone Neo geo marquees, you can use those in case you like to work on other NeoGeo projects if you want, keep up the great work! Links: And this one, it has more obscure Neo Geo game marquees compared to the dual layout versions if you're interested:
  5. Thanks, I want to wait for the UV Led TL (not sure if TL is called the same overseas) tubes to come along as , I've seen normal led tubes come by, I think that would spread the light better in such a small room. Maybe a bulb with uv leds placed around will work as well although not sure if it would work the same technology-wise. Yeah those bars will blind you as well, its scary stuff
  6. Ah yes, I learn new english words every day, thanks bro Those led spots are far too bright for a small room like this lol these spots are shining thus far into other rooms when the door is open that it reflects on the walls so downstairs anything white still lights up without seeing the purple light anymore, I hope I explained this well lol
  7. Good idea indeed!
  8. I have this one pointed to front direction and a smaller one of 6 lights pointed to the back: https://www.amazon.co.uk/beamz-Black-Light-Ultraviolet-Lighting-Mobile/dp/B075R31Q6Y/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1547191672&sr=8-8&keywords=beamz+uv+led It works really well although when installing these you do have to place them well so they don't reflect in the monitors, the color seems a lighter shade of purple than traditional TL tubes and light up the room far more than the traditional ones, I like these UV Leds more than traditional as the UV effect is also brighter but wish it was (dont know the exact english term) radial/global light instead of spots as it's hard to position well in smaller rooms without screen reflection or them shining in your eyes, so I had to place 2 of them in the middle of the ceiling and point to both directions. The posters are from a poster book, a collection of classic/famous UV posters used during the counter culture.
  9. If you care to https://translate.google.com/ yourself I can answer you brother.
  10. Here's my game room/time capsule/psychedelic galaxy, a few photo's as I don't want to spam this with 20 photos, more photos here:
  11. Update of the (finally finished) room where I play and work on all the projects, no more desk and office chair, been sitting on those for almost 20 years, time for something new. Tried to catch every detail, 20 photos should be enough It's more than a game room it's a bit of a time capsule of past century things I love. I do have to remove some dust though lol Well that's it all in all.
  12. At the moment the launchbox database is being reconstructed after a hdd fail so it can take a little while to recover every image again, I think tomorrow should be safe to download them just to be sure, normally you can download media by selecting games and then go to tools/download metadata and images, here you can choose which categories you'd like to scrape, don't forget to let Arcade Marquees checked.
  13. Great! I hope you can send me a link to see your work, looking forward to see it ?
  14. Probably a within two weeks (could be sooner or later) for the LMNOP pack, around 3 to 4 weeks for QRST and a week for UVWXYZ. For the update packs to the missing boxes I can't make an estimate yet but perhaps a month in total, all could go much faster maybe but depends on real life/time/health things.
  15. Thanks for the update and the restoration (thank god for backups) you guys rule! \m/
  16. Thanks bro, glad you enjoy them
  17. Thats the weird thing as I knew about plugging and unplugging might reorder them so I didn't and I marked the controllers with UV ink marker (ink visible in black light). I did however plug and unplug an external soundcard I use for headphones (for a lot of bass lol) around the time it happened so it might be that this was the cause, making me scared to plug anything in the USB ports now. However it could also be the USB energy saving option people have mentioned before, disconnecting one or more controllers and thus reordering them. I switched off the USB energy saving option now so I hope by also sticking to the order that Windows has been serving these past few days will do the trick.
  18. Thanks for the tips bro! I also have the default.ini set to readonly so nothing is changed within Mame, its windows suddenly deciding the order should be changed making the settings in Mame useless, i've got two Logitechs F310 and a Hori Fighter Commander, in Mame I mapped both an F310 (controller 1) and the Hori (controller 3) to player 1 and the other F310 (controller 2) to player 2, this worked for a few days but all of a sudden every pad is switched to another number and it keeps doing this whenever I restart windows. I have now changed all the controls to the order which Windows so aggresively reorders to in the hope Windows leaves me alone (the bastard!) if this doesnt work i'll try out the software you mentioned
  19. Will do! Thanks for the reminder, I'll make a backup later today as you never know
  20. Thanks, glad you like I uploaded most of pack 2 dual layout marquees to the launchbox database so you can scrape the marquees like this, there's still a lot of work to be done before releasing pack 2.
  21. Loving the new theme! It's got extra dimensions as if a window opened in the background to another galaxy \m/
  22. Thanks man, I've seen this come by and some other software called Tur-Game Controller Order on the hyperspin forum, although I hoped there was an easy fix or knowledge for windows itself, I try not to have to many software running in the background, do you use this software yourself?
  23. Thanks bro, glad you like
  24. Not sure if this will help you but maybe worth a try, this seems to work for some people when having mapping problems, setting the following in mame.ini, downside of putting Keyboard in dinput is Mame can use only one keyboard at a time, in case you use multiple keyboards. # # OSD INPUT OPTIONS # keyboardprovider dinput mouseprovider auto lightgunprovider auto joystickprovider auto
