3D-ARCADE at MAMEWORLD
What is the purpose of this site? We hope that this site
will grow to become a general repository of assets for building a virtual arcade
and more specific for 3d models free for personal, non-commercial and non-public
use. This site will not only provide geometry models but also bitmaps and videos
that can be used as (animated) textures.
For now the site will focus on models, textures, videos for the FE-3Darcade
/ Emulaxian frontend and Lazarus frontend.

This fixes the
issue with the lightmap of Station Break with certain skins, including the
3darcade default skin. You will only need to replace your current fe executable.
So I recommend getting the upgrade zip from the frontend section if you already
have 0.95 installed. (20-6-2006) There is a problem with the lightmap of the Station
Break Arcade breaking up when a skin is used, like the default one, where
the vertical size of the 3d sprite is smaller then 480 pixels. We are working
to
fix this problem as soon as possible, stay tuned!
Update: Please test the update frontend executable that should solve the issue
with Station Break. Get it here ! (19-6-2006) The arcade cfg for the Station Break arcade had
a few errors. If you have already downloaded it, then please redownload it
again!
(19-6-2006) Station Break Released!!! A banner day here at 3D Arcade. Fossil releases
the highly anticipated, much talked about arcade. Put on some
Journey

near the entrance or cruise down the ramp, grab some quarters at the change
machine, and hit the pinball machines. Grab this new arcade from the arcades section
of the website. Also this week, spanner sends us a new model, Firefox. Grab
this in the models section. Last but not least, keep a close eye on the forums

Just when I think things are getting slow, new interest in the project lights a fire under everyone and the next thing I know I'm posting almost daily updates. This week it's Pigskin by BTribble. Also, the list of Pinball skins are multiplying like rabbits. Let's see there is Amazon Hunt (jibmums), Solar Fire (jibmums), Sexy Girl (steverick), and the list keeps getting longer. Keep an eye on the WIP page for all the latest updates. Last but not least, Kartag has created a .dat file for clrmame that helps in renaming all your visual pinball stuff to match the ,ahem, unconventional naming scheme of your VP tables. You can find that on the pinball page. (12-5-2006) BTribble comes out with another model....Varkon. This is another arcade/pinball hybrid but upright this time. Check it out in the models section.

You can get the model in the Models section, as always, and the game is temporarily available by reading this thread. (22-2-2006) 3D Arcade / Emulaxian 0.95 released! Get it from
the frontend section. This is primarly a maintenance release that fixes the multiuser online arcades
and makes them more easy to use. Also most of the newer arcades are now available
as online arcades. The most importent news is that you can setup the fe to
automatically login to the online arcades. Just doubleclick the "startup
in multiuser mode" link in the
fe folder and select online from the main menu. That's all you need to do to
meet your friends inside an arcade like in the old days... -The first time you login to the online arcades the fe will automatically
download all the needed files if they are not yet installed. (09-02-2006) HowardC has done some updates to the Mortal Kombat

(12-07-04) Well, Baraka and I have been working our butts off
for a while on this one. Welcome to a new era of cabinet models. These are what
he and I call low-poly/low-mesh/low-shader models. I know, the name isn't really
very catchy, but I think you'll still be impressed with the models themselves.
These models (some of which are remakes of already exsisting models, some of
which are brand spanking new, all of which have totally new "virgin"
model files as well as all new art to dazzle the eye) are specially formatted
to get your arcade flying. Most of them have 5 or less shaders, 5 or less meshes,
and under (most of the time) 500 polys, but they still look awesome. The best
part is, you can dump em in your arcade just like the older versions and they'll
work just fine. With the help of Deniro, we've set it up so you can have the
choice of downloading the older models (a lot of people went to a lot of work
to do those, and we appreciate it more than you will ever know. Plus, we didn't
want to step on any toes here ;) or the new low-poly versions. Deniro insists
that we call them "Diet-Models." Anyway, here is the list, and let
me tell you, it's pretty extensive (though by no means done): First, from Baraka: Bosconian, Centipede, Dig Dug, Donkey Kong,
Donky Kong 3, Donky Kong Jr., Galaga, Galaxian, Mario Brothers, Ms. Pac-Man,
MVS 1-slot, Pac-Man, Popeye, Sinistar (upright),
Tempest, and Xevious. Next, from me, Pariah: 1942, Astron Belt, Bega's
Battle, Bump'n Jump, Cliff Hanger, Cobra Command,
Domino Man, Frogger, Galaxy Ranger, Jr. Pac-Man,
Juno First, Dragon's Lair, Dragon's Lair 2, Mappy, Moon Patrol, Phoenix, Pleiads,
Space Ace, Super Don Quix-ote, Space
Fury, Super Pac-Man, Tac/Scan, The Pit,
Time Pilot, Thayer's Quest, Tron, Vanguard and
Zaxxon! All models listed in green are totally
new! All told, right now that's 44 new models. As an example of what is so great about the new "Diet-Models"
(D, you freak) is below. I've chosen two of my own models to give you an idea
of how much more streamlined these new cabs are! Bump'n Jump (original) Polys: 472 Bump'n Jump (low-poly/low-mesh/low-shader
NEW) Polys: 280 I think the stats pretty much speak for themselves, and this isn't
even a really good example! Many cabs came in much lower on the revamped versions.
What all this means is that your processor doesn't have to work nearly so hard
to keep up with your arcade. We've loaded an arcade on a midrange computer with
a crapola video card with 100 of these models and have noticed NO slowdown
whatsoever! ArcadeVGA owners: Fear the FE no more! You know who you are. New stuff coming soon: Space Harrier (sitdown, animated!), 1943,
Aliens Vs. Predator, Astro Blaster, Frenzy, Roc'n Rope (I finally got some halfway
decent shots!), Spider-Man, Primal Rage, Tekken 1, 2, and 3, and the first super
Diet-Arcade!! Give em a try. Let us know what you think. As always you can catch
us in the forum, or you can get me on MSN IM at [email protected]. You can
also email me at [email protected] (remove the XXX. I put it there to
keep the blasted spam merchants away from me!) If you have any complaints, problems
or other nasty things to say tell it to Baraka (On MSN IM [email protected]).
I'm sure they're all his fault! Lastly: I know that there are a couple of you out there with new
models that I haven't put up yet. I am terribly sorry that I let myself get
behind on this and I promise that I will get to it very soon. I know I've said
that before, and my only excuse is that Baraka and I have been working like
crazy to get these new cabs out. Between working on cabs I'm writing my second
novel and trying desperatly to juggle a social life. Please remember that we're
doing this all for fun. Thanks! I'm uploading the models and such right now, so (9:37 pm middle
America (Michigan to be exact)) they should be up in the next hour or so. If
not, then for sure tomorrow morning! Enjoy!! Pariah (17-06-2004) The beta of VoodooScience Lounge is now available
in the arcades section. See a Walkthrough video preview here.
I also updated the fe exe to 0.91.2 with two small updates. More info and the
updated exe here.
And view apreview video of the c64 skin here.
(09-06-2004) 3darcade / Emulaxian 0.91 released! A very big update this time! Some of the new features: -Support for lightmaps for subtle light and shadows effects. Voodooscientist put these to great use in his fantastic VoodooScience Lounge arcade which features a kareoke bar, a bowling alley, a bar with pool tables, a movie theatre and more! Pics here: -Several enhancements to the cylarcade menutype which amongst other things makes a whole new kind of console/computer skins possible. See Deniros ingenious Commodore 64 skin as an example. Pics here: -The menulevels have been removed from the skins and all remaining camera related stuff has been moved to the arcade cfgs in order to make skin assigment more userfriendly. The fe will accept old skins but its recommended to update your skins. The fe will help by saving updated skins to skins\updatedskins\. See the sticky thread in the "setup help" section of the forum if you need assistence with the conversion of skins and for more info about how to assign skins under the new scheme: -New magic cabs (see the forum here how to use them), new dummy marquees options, better handling of user errors and more see what is new: (27-05-04) Lots of skins for the generic pinball have been added lately to the pinball section...and with several people currently working on them be sure to check the pinball section regularly for new ones... ()p() (24-05-04) Pariah adds Tac/Scan and Metamorphic Force to his list
of completed cabs! Download them in the MODELS section! (Pariah) (18-05-04) Added Juno First, from me, to the models section. (Pariah) (17-05-04) Another quickie update: Mark another one off my wip!
LadyBug! As always, in the models section. (Pariah) (13-05-04) One last one for the day... The End, from me! (Pariah) (13-05-04) I meant to post these eariler, but there were some
problems with them so they waited until I got home today. Frogger version 2,
Front Line, and Galaga 88, all from Pariah. Got a couple more coming later tonight
too! (Pariah) (13-05-04) Here's some more cabs for you: From Krusty: Amidar
and Round Up. From Fossil: Wild Western. From ]DamnD[: UN Squadron. From Pariah:
Krull, Solar Fox and Turtles. And lastly from Baraka and Pariah: The secret
cab!! VIRTUA FIGHTER! Cool. (Pariah) (11-05-2004) Well, for some reason our last models update got
wiped out. Fear not though, I still have them and I'll re-up them as soon as
I get home tonight. (Pariah) (06-05-2004) Got a big cab update for you today: From Krusty:
Astro Invader, Bubble Bobble, Crazy Climber, Contra, Hyper Sports, Jump Bug,
Lock n Chase, Pepper 2, Rainbow Island, Rod Land, Super Contra, Scramble (version
3), Timber, Track & Field, and Venture. From Baraka: Metro Cross. More coming
soon. (Pariah) (11-04-2004) Second cab update of the day!! Baraka brings us Dragon
Spirit (for which he would like to give out a special thanks to Danielle for
her great side art! Danielle, BTW is our awesome research assistant! Yowza!)
and Sly Spy! And here I am with another golden oldie: Reactor! In truth I liked
this better on the Atari VCS better than in the arcade (I think it was the music)
but it's still a great game! Models section... be there! (Pariah) (11-04-2004) Here's Baraka with two beautiful new cabs. Rush'n
Attack, and Omega Race! Pariah is a huge fan of Omega Race... Yeah baby. Good
stuff. Go check em out! (Pariah) (10-04-2004) Ok, the MAX file for T-Mek is up if anyone is interested,
and I finally (wipes hand across brow) finished up Revolution X! Special thanks
go out to San (from the forums) for his great shots of that and T-Mek. I couldn't
have done em' without you San! (Pariah) (10-04-2004) Just before bed I wanted to put up my T-Mek cab.
Go find it in the models section. I'll put up the MAX file when I'm not falling
over... (Pariah) (08-04-2004) I'm bored with my week off, so here's another cab.
This one is from my list of Rave-Faves! Pooyan. Don't ask me why, but I love
this stupid little game, and the cabs not so bad either. (Pariah) (08-04-2004) Here's another new cab from me. Cameltry. And a new
cab from Ed. Food Fight! Cool. Yup. Ok. Bye, bye. (Pariah) (07-04-2004) Someone on the forum requested an out of order sign
for those games that aren't emulated yet have models (i.e. MK4). Anyway, here
it is, check it out in the models section. By the way, we've reached a milestone
here. This makes 200 models for 3d arcade! Enjoy. (Pariah) UPDATE: I got off
my butt again and finished my House of the Dead (original) cab. Again, enjoy!
(Pariah) (05-04-2004) Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize that I didn't have
Baraka's UP-TO-DATE MK4! He's over here at my house crying right now, so here
I am updating again! Twice in one day! Anyway. Here's MK4 version 2. Look for
version 45 by the flippin' time he leaves here tonight, after Baraka decides
that it's just not bloody good enough!! (Pariah) (05-04-2004) Another models update! Baraka gives us Swimmer (beautiful
cab) and Mortal Kombat 4 (not emulated yet, but great cab nonetheless). Krusty
101 is back with some updated version 2s of his cabs Championship Sprint, NBA
Jam, Tapper, and Wacko (some of you experienced problems with Wacko before.
These new versions should take care of that problem!). Great stuff Krusty! Finally,
I got off my lazy butt and made a new model (with more to come really soon!):
House of the Dead 2 (also not emulated, but you can purchase the PC version
that is almost as good as the arcade!). Hope you all enjoy, and have a great
Spring Break! (I work for a school district, so I get spring break off! Lucky
me.) (Pariah) (25-3-2004) BIG BIG BIG models update! First, from Baraka: Lunar
Lander (yeah baby!), Marvel Super Heroes, Martial Champion, Primal Rage, Street
Fighter II Champion Edition, and Up 'n Down. Next, from our new champion modeler,
Krusty 101: Arkanoid, Buster Bros., Bomb Jack, Championship Sprint, Golden Axe,
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Mr. Do. NBA Jam, Pac-Mania, Peter Pack-Rat,
Road Runner, Rolling Thunder, Tapper, Toobin', Wacko (awesome cab!), WWF Superstars,
and 10 Yard Fight! Great work guys! That's 23 new cabs! Holy cow! (Pariah) (21-3-2004) Jibmums contributed a set of 10 new complete skins
for the generic pinball model. See the pinball section. ()p() (14-3-2004) Just one new cab today. Baraka's classic Street Fighter!
The original, the first, the real thing. Check the MODELS section. (Pariah) (13-3-2004) Huge cabinet update today. First, Baraka brings us
ALIENS! Awesome! And from Krusty 101: 10! Yes, you heard me! 10 new cabinets!
Stick with me here: 1943, A.P.B., Double Dragon, Double Dragon 2, Karate Champ,
Kung Fu Master, Scramble, Spy Hunter Sit Down, Tetris, and WWF WrestleFest!
WOW! Check all the new models out in the Models section! (9-3-2004) There is no stopping Baraka, it would seem, as he is
back again today with two more cabs. First the anxiously awaited Final Fight,
a brawler among brawlers. His second rather odd selection of the day is Journey.
Odd game. Odd band. Beautiful cabinet! Thanks, B. (Pariah) (8-3-2004) Updated the 7th Heaven arcade zip with a version of
the default ambientsound mp3 with added reverb made by Sacpino that fits better
with the big dome. I also added the Emulaxian skin to the skins section as it
does not come anymore with the default fe zips. Fixed a small bug in the fe
when reapplying the same random filter twice. No reason to do such a thing...but
it should not produce an error ;-) Thanks to Chisel for the report. ()p() (7-3-2004) Baraka's contribution today is a slight revamp of his
Black Tiger cab, and an all new classic cab (one of my favorites) Ikari Warriors!
And just so you wouldn't think he was resting on his laurels, he also finished
a cab for one of my all time favorite games, Shinobi! Great stuff, B. Krusty
101 comes back again as well, with a beautiful Killer Instinct, to go with his
KI2. Not to be left out, Spanner and I collaborated on a beautiful After Burner
cab. As always, ALL FIVE of the new cabs are in the MODELS section. (Pariah) (6-3-2004) It's late, late, late, and Baraka's new cabinet is
great, great, great! Golden Axe 2. Also, I guess that Baraka isn't the only
one that doesn't sleep. Ed stayed up late to give us 3 beautiful cabs! Atari
2600, the greatest console system ever, Space Duel and Stargate! And here comes
Krusty 101 with his first cab: Killer Instinct 2! Awsome! Lastly, Chapter 3:
Knowledge, is up in my cabinet tutorials, in the MODELS section. Wow! What a
day!(Pariah) (5-3-2004) I dont' think that Baraka ever sleeps. All the better
for us though, since today he gives us the one and only Choplifter! Beautiful
cab! (Pariah) (3-3-2004) Yet another grand slam to deep center field from Baraka:
It's Sky Shark! Go see it in the models section. 2nd update today is one more
cab from Baraka. Let's here it for Gate of Doom! Nice work. (Pariah) (2-3-2004) Baraka gives us the other side of the Ghosts 'n Goblins
coin with Ghouls 'n Ghosts! I almost spoke too soon! Baraka made a double play
today with his gorgeous cab, Side Arms - Hyperdyne. Wow! Check em out in the
model section. And I uploaded the first 2 chapters of my model building tutorials.
More soon! You can find them in the models section.(Pariah) (29-2-2004) 3d Arcade / Emulaxian 0.90 released and Deniros 7th
Heaven arcade! 0.90: Deniros 7th Heaven arcade: Pariah here with another new cab: Spy Hunter Upright! (Pariah) (28-2-2004) Pariah and Baraka are at it again!! Don't you guys
ever sleep? Pariah comes back with Captain America and the Avengers and Smash
TV! Baraka is right there with Astroids Delux (Just for Peter), Commando, and
another entry in his fantasy series, Ghosts 'n Goblins! Wow! Check em' out in
the models section! (Updated by Pariah) (27-2-2004) Karetag updated the set with Backglasses
images. It now covers 798 tables! A new set of playfields will also follow soon.
Great work :-) (23-2-2004) Models, models and even more models...by Baraka and Pariah! Baraka made Black Tiger, Cadash, Haunted Castle, Magic Sword and Pyros. Pariah made Ninja Gaiden, Junior Pacman,a completely revamped Mappy and updated the joystick handle on Satans Hollow... With all these new models it's a good thing that preloading models on bootup will be optional in the next version of the fe. Also I updated the exhibition zip...Fossil mentioned on the forum you could not go upstairs before going downstairs...and indeed that was true for the arcade cfg in the online zip...If you also experience this then open up arcades\exhibition.cfg and set in section 1: fpsstartpos|-567 0 532 -38|etc. (19-2-2004) Pariah made an Astron Belt model. And Baraka made a Rastan, his first cab model! Welcome Baraka :-) Fossil reported a bug that grabbing cabs only worked with the mouse in 0.89. Uhm can't have any bugs in it...so...mmm caused by the dummy camera introduced in 0.89. Fixed it and updated the fe zips to 0.89.3. New exe here. Last but certainly not least...Scapino updated his artwork bitmaps to conform to the new generic pin standard for the pinball tables he made in vp...and they look wonderful :-) (18-2-2004) Updated the fe to 0.89.2 This adds a new commandline option requested by Fossil and Scapino, fe3darcade.exe -vpdxfix, that can be used by the internal vp launcher to set directdraw to use software acceleration only and after running the vp game it will turn full hardware accelerartion back on. Works the same as thebatch file Scapino made available on the vp forums. Seems vp needs this with some newer graphic drivers. Also there was a small bug with the new generic model types that in some circumstances the additonal shader would show up without a texture...oops ;-) Hehe get the updated exe here. (17-2-2004) Gauntlet II, an updated Tron and another great Disc's of Tron, this time the upright version! Yesss... and all by Pariah. And for the fruit addicts Spanner made a Barcrest model with a magic touch, the border color will change depending on the marquee shown on it. I also added an image that explains the skinnning of the new generic pinball model in the pinball section. And I added some demo textures made by Deniro for it. (16-2-2004) 3D Arcade / Emulaxian 0.89 released! -Support for external "magic" generic models. Deniro made allready a bunch of them...watch the models section ;-) (13-2-2004) Pariah made two classics requested by me, thanks! :-) Gauntlet and....Burger Time...for those who know me...yes this Veggie wanted it..it's a game dammit ;-) (11-2-2004) Scapino made a great set of images for his Visual Pinball tables that utilize the ability of the new gencab option in 0.88.2 to skin all relavant parts. Grab them form the pinball section :-) (9-2-2004) Bug fix! And new models 1. Pariah went for the big ones...two generic showcase cabs. One with guns and the other with a 6 buttons layout 2. Frontend build 0.88.2: (5-2-2004) Here is a set with screenshots and marquees for the demos section of the default skin for all current arcades. They will show up in the gamelist selection menu for demos. Just unzip in your fe folder keeping the folder structure. (3-2-2004) Added a Cliff Hanger model by Pariah. And I added the first version of a new arcade, Laterna, to the arcades section. (2-2-2004) Perfectionist altert! The ultrawheel in the various section of the default skin had the pricewheel model mapped into it. You can just barely see it, for example in the line that goes through the screenshots on the wheel ;-) I removed it and I also removed the chatboxes from the wheel skin and made the wheel bigger to fill most of the screen. If you use the new default skin just unzip this in your fe folder keeping the folder structure. (1-2-2004) Added Congo Bongo and Superman models by Spyro. And
a coin changer model by Pariah. It will play a coin insert wav when selected
;-) (31-1-2004) Added a Dragons Lair II by Pariah and an Outrun seater
by Nick (Spanner). Happy birthday to ya Nick! :-) (29-1-2004) Added a beautiful new Tron model and a Rally-X model by Pariah. (28-1-2004) 3D Arcade / Emulaxian 0.88 released! The main new feature is the very elaborate new default skin and setup package which will hopefully make it easier to use and enhance the overall experience. See for more info and screenshots of the new default skin in action here. And for a list of changes see fewhatisnew. (Rightclick releases mouselook ;-).) (27-1-2004) Finally we got a Marble
Madness...thanks to Pariah! Oh...and...looks like his Domino Man was added
at sometime by
uhm...lets say someone...a while back too ;-) (25-1-2004) Another gun cab by Pariah. This time he made an Operation Wolf model. (24-1-2004) Pariah made Maximum Force. And Spyro is back with Arabian and Carnival! (23-1-2004) Pariah is on a role...added his Area 51...our first guncab! Great work... :-) The next version of the fe will have a complete new skin package. To get some feedback I have put a beta package online in the forum...see here for pics and the download link. (Warning large pics broadband users only ;-) ) (22-1-2004) Added Bump 'n' Jump and Satans Hollow by Pariah to the modelssection :-) (16-1-2004) Added Super Pacman and Frogger by Pariah. Added 1942, Xevious and Wizzard of War by Sapnner. Updated the fe zips with a new executable (0.87.9) fixing a script error that could happen in the listmanager when adding a gamelist that starts with an Upper case letter, ie Platform.atf instead of platform.atf. (6-1-2004) Updated the fe zips with a new executable (0.87.6) Showing and speaking the name of the user at who's avatar model your looking at in the multiuser arcades works again. Two cosmetic refinements, can you spot them? ;-) (5-1-2004) Pariah made a Space Ace variant of the Dragons Lair model. (3-1-2004) Added Commodore 16, Commodore vic 20 and Commodore 64 models with and without a stand to the models section. Tip: Use the arcgategl textureoverlay menu system to display the gamelists directly on the tv screens of these models. (1-1-2004) Happy New Year! Deniro updated the website. Most useful feature of the new design is the integrated model and model viewer section with options to filter and sort the models list. 
-In principle you can use the online arcades by just unzipping the fe in a
folder and doubleclicking the "startup in multiuser mode" link. The
only drawback will be that the arcades will be filled with generic cabs. So
be sure to get the cab models too for the full effect and put them in your
models folder :)
-Consolidates the bug fixes from 0.94.2 through 0.94.4
-Fixes a bug with models with a different width property screwing up the rotation
in cylarcade. Very importent fix when using the larger cabinet models in this
mode.
-Fixes a bug that the search and filter box did not get rotated correctly for
90 degrees cw rotated skins.

-This is a new arcade environment based on the opening castle level of
Super Mario 64, for all you Nintendo lovers out there. Head on over
to the arcades
section of the website to download it. Be sure to check out the
thread in
the forum for more info and screenshots in case you missed it the first time
around! Check out the teaser video
HERE
-Event and time based scripting control over all the objects and their properties
in the 3d world. I included some example scripts for light switches, elevators,
texture animation, colliding with models in the scene and more.
-As a bonus, scripting control over all other sprites and members too. Sprites
and members can be created from scratch, giving the potential of expanding
the functionality of the frontend itself!
-Rating dialog box, for rating the selected item. Works just like the search
dialog box.
-Maturity dialog box, for rating the maturity of the selected item. The icons
for the maturity dialog are from the esrb game rating system. These can be
replaced by any other rating system if so desired.
-end more...
-Bitmap cycling is now also supported on the static model in the cylarcade menutype.
-Simplified the random game screensaver support. Set randomscreensaver to true
in the general cfg and it should work.
-Variables in any commandline string will automatically be replaced with the
contents of those fields before the game is launched.
-Key (krunexe) to launch a commandline string at any time. Useful for example
to popup a controlpanel viewer. Thanks to minwah for the idea :)
-Added the option to limit the matching between games and models for locked and
static models to a sequence of gencab filters.
-Fixes the fixed size issue of ambient sound loops.
-Fixes an obscure bug that occurs when a video plays in the gs or ss menu and
the user selects the current menu item and the next menu is of type listbox.
-fixes a bug with sorting a-z in 0.92's new on the fly filter dialogs.
-added more sorting options to the on the fly filters.
-fixes the size of the handle bar in relation to the scroll content of the
text sprite in the new dialogs with rotated skins.
-fixes a bug when clicking on a column label, to sort the column, in the
second field of the gamelist editor.
-added the vpforcetablefocus property to the general cfg menu (cfg\fe.cfg)
vpforcetablefocus|true|#boole|When set to true this will check if the vp
table has focus and if not it will force focus to the vp table window. It
will do
this for 2 minutes everytime it checks if the kquitvp is hit. Therefore this
only works with the special internal vp launcher. This will prevent the vp
table to launch behind the fe and become invisible.|
-added karateg's pinball_demo gamelist to the list archive in the main fe
zip that covers most of the
current games.
-Added an elaborate gamelist editor to the listmanager.
-Added new skinnable versions of the filter and search dialogs (pic).
-Deniro updated the manual and made it 100% compatible with firefox and opera.
-A lot more, see fewhatisnew...
This hopefully fixes a major bug introduced in 0.91.0 that caused several unpredictable issues and even crashes after coming back from a game! If your using 0.91 please update your exe! Even if you like me and others don't see any problems with some revisions of 0.91! The bug was caused by a Director quirk that causes havoc when moving around scripts...arghh! Get the updated exe here.
Console models: Nes, Snes, N64.
Computer model: Ti99/4A.
Prop models: Lots
op props including an ashtray, stools, phone, signs and an animated pink elephant ride...lovely called Pinky by us!
-By request from Pixelhugger I added the keyjumptolist property to the general cfg (fe.cfg) which allows to setup keys to directly jump to any gamelist in the hierarchy. They can also be binded to buttons as simulated keypresses.
-Mame 0.84 no longer supports -listinfo only -listxml. The internal mame parser needs the info from -listinfo. As a workaround the fe will now look in the mame folder or in the fe utilities folder for xml2info.exe that converts the xml output to info format. It ships with mame so it should normally be already in your mame folder. If its not found the fe will prompt you to point to a valid dat. If you use an old mame version that does not support -listxml then be sure to delete the xml2info.exe from the mame folder and or the fe's utilities folder. If its not found the fe will use the old -listinfo flag...
-Better support for artwork with "."' characters in the filename/
-Adding fpsxtramodels through the arcades section in the listmanager works again.

-The preloadcab property in general cfg can now be set to false. When set to false the fe will no longer preload all models on boot but only when needed.
-Texture overlay menus can now be put on fpsxtramodels. This way jukeboxes, arcgates etc. don't have to be part of a gamelist anymore.
-Support for positional sound effects. For a demonstration see Deniros new 7thHeaven arcade and hear the zeppelin flying over ;-)
-Gencab entries can now use all search operators the fe supports.
-Option to set the camera to be the parent of the environment model in cylarcade. Watchout for a demonstration of this featuring Q-bert soon...
-Added some more dialogs to the internal cfg utility and changed all of them to be compatible with a possible mac port.
The arcade is set in a steel-frame dome with an animated sky in the background.
Magic marquee signs hang in the dome above the games they get their marquees
from. Included is also a new batch of magic cabinets, that will instantly fill
any arcade with a diversity of models. And then there is that Zeppelin...
-Support for a new kind of generic models that can be skinned completely developed by me and Deniro.
-New internal pinball model by Deniro that takes advantage of the new generic model type. More info soon in the pinball section.
-The chat sprites can now, when not in multiuser mode, be used to show info- and history content for the selected game just like in the info screen. Including basic html if the text method for the sprite is not set to field.
-More options to format information content for the selected game.
-Updated the internal visual pinball launcher. With vp in it's default location, (c:\program files\visual pinball\ , c:\program files\visual pinball\tables\), it should now work out of the box. Reinstantiating of textures is no longer nescessary. And fixes and issue with names with . in it. All in all I think then internal vp launcher should be now your first try to get vp going ;-)
-Enhanced support for the mouse in cabinets.
-The new keyhandler in 0.88 ignored the ctrl, alt and shift keys. Reported by Cory.
-Force1024x768 set to true resulted in an error when leaving the internal cfg utility. Reported by several people..ouch
-And as allways more small enhancements ;-)
