[QUOTE="AcadDude, post: 276650, member: 7404"] So I tried the Arcooda Cabinet for a fullsized cabinet build. It works great. Then I decided to see how low a budget I could get a second cabinet to be. I made a bartop version. PC is a dual-core with a 1030 nvidia card. I am using a 32" monitor in portrait. Runs all the Pinball Arcade games pretty well with the exception of Ghost Busters. I use Steam for my games so I can play Stern Arcade games also. I did add a trackball to use as a mouse so that Stern Frontend would work. I am using Key-Wiz for button to keyboard input and Opti-Wiz for the Happ trackball. I found an application to assign keyboard button to volume up and down so that I can have those buttons on the side of the cabinet for easy volume control. I managed to minimize my buttons to 8 for the game. 2 flippers and the 2 second flippers are nudge left and right. Then the ESC Back and Launch buttons. Lastly I have the View change button to switch between the 4 views. I have three buttons for the PC Volume up and down and the ON button. The trackball has two buttons to get right and left click. Way cleaner setup than my cabinet. Live and learn right? I run these in DX11 mode and get table and DMD on one screen which looks great for my tastes. P.S. I can play all my tables on this setup too. Not just the Arcooda cabinet ones. Here are the pictures.
