    Default Mini Tabletop MAME Cabinet - Xbox based

    here is my mini tabletop MAME cabinet based around an original xbox

    after cleaning out my shed i found i 'had everything required to build it apart from the joystick

    its not based on any plans i just built the frame around the console and LCD monitor as a proof of concept so its pretty much just hobbled together without any finishing touches

    Coinops is excellent and easy to setup and use, i have coinops epic which is 20gig and has 2600 roms.

    I love the table top cabs, i have plenty of xbox's to use but its the joystick part that has me stumped. I take it you did a vga cable mod to the xbox or does the lcd have rca's ?

    the white box on top of the xbox is a composite/component to vga.

    its the joystick part that has me stumped
    i just soldered wires directly to an old light gun controller that had the d/pad as well as all the xyab black white start back buttons

    is coin ops good to use for mame games? is coinops easy to set up?
    yes and yes, just ftp to xbox hdd and copy the tdata udata in savegame dir to E on the xbox - my version of epic came from the newsgroups and is 32 gig with over 2600 roms but as the xbox has a file system limit of 4096 you need to split the roms over multiple directories (roms1, roms2) and add the folder links in advanced options so all the games are available
