@viking Sure, here you go:

 

Hi @Jason Carr.
A quick question on the "Default Arcade Playlist" I'm talking about those generated when creating the ARCADE platform.
For the system, are these PLAYLIST or PLATFORM?
It's for integrate colors code in right place!

Thx !!

So yes, I'm working on the Default Arcade Playlist. ?
But be patient, this is a HUUUUGE and LONNNNG job !!
Especially since everything here is in CGI and I try to reproduce the most iconic cabs.

Start with "Classics" series. Here is a preview of first 11 done.
Hope you like !

Hi viking, they are playlists. The new cab images look awesome!

Could you possibly make a video that uses modern arcade cabinets? I ask because I separate my Arcade category into "Classics" (Anything using an emulator, MAME, Model 2 etc...) and "Modern" (Anything PC based, TTX, NesicaXLive, Teknoparrot, etc...) There are so many "Arcade Classics" videos already, but I can't find anything with a more modern look.

@tomkun I believe he did publish a TTX video that features viewlix cabs. I'd love to see some naomi/atomiswave era candy cabs.

Thanks for the heads up, I will use that as a placeholder until I can find something better.

I don't really mind which games or cabinets are used as long as they're modern. All arcade videos seem to include Pacman or Donkey Kong, which is not the aesthetic I'm going for. I can really only find material for "Arcade", which covers the entire range, or "Classics" which covers the older games. It's very difficult to find anything that just represents the modern stuff. Does no one else arrange their games like this? Surely I'm not the only one?

Well, you know the nostalgia arcade category playlist? It has three machines on it, Pac-man, Donkey Kong and Neo-Geo MVS. I'm imagining something like that, but with more modern machines. For example, a TTX cabinet, a NesicaXLive cabinet and a Sega All.net cabinet? I know the later generations of arcade games have a lot of complicated custom built cabinets which would be a nightmare to render, but those three systems at least had convertible cabinets.

I know it's a lot to ask and I certainly don't expect anything as it seems I am in the minority here, but it would let me have a coordinated look, at least for my platform categories.

Its worth noting that viking released the assets to his videos. If you had access to Photoshop and After Effects you could replace the gameplay videos and add marquees for your preferred games. There are only a handful of modern convertibles (Taito Viewlix, Namco Noir and Sega Lindbergh). These 3d models are a huge undertaking and will take a lot of time, but I can envision a future where viking and others like him have lovingly recreated most machines in cgi and we can enjoy our collections in a virtual reality arcade experience.

I'd certainly be happy to have a go creating a video, but like you say rendering a 3D model would be a bit beyond my ability. What 3D rendering software is used do you know?

Ahah.
For Arcade playlists, in addition to the "default" list, I planned to make an "Arcade Classics" for old games. (like PacMan, Space Invaders ...)
Because I use it myself.
Why not make a "modern arcade" on a Viewlix base? It would be easy.
But I won't make morePLAYLIST video. Because it's endless. If someone has the courage, I give all my sources in the dedicated topic.

About CGI, I did all the arcades like this because it was impossible to find good photo sources for all variants. It's also my job (CGI Artist freelance), so a logical move for me.
I used 3dsmax and vRay. They are no masterpiece here, far from it, but it will be even slower!

Don't worry, they're masterpieces! ;) Can't wait for the next update.
