I wish I had 3D modeling skills. Just a simple 2D "airbrush" job in CorelDraw. I was going to make an artwork file that displayed the full cabinet off to the left and the regular Upright Artwork view to the right, but as I've just discovered, newer versions of MAME don't support multiple iterations of the game screen in D3D mode. Uggh.

Don't forget, all that black plastic should have a "camera case" texture to it.

Yes, I want to do something like that, but I'm shelving this one for now until they make it possible to display the game screen more than once in a view in D3D mode like it was in the good old days.

Hey Nightvoice,

Not to take away at all from what you are doing.
Have you had any thoughts of picking up the Bradley Trainer again?

Would be a sweet segue once Battlezone is done.

And thanks to you the Marquee is already done!
I know all to well, its a different cabinet and its going to require some extra work to make the dials work.

Carry on and thanks for continuing to contribute.

I only have one cabinet photo of Bradley, and it doesn't offer much detail on the dials or the marquee sticker. Dials I can do, but as always, everything depends on the level of detail I get in the photos, which people have gotten stingy with in the last few years.

Jibmums wants a vinyl/metal texture on Battle Zone, and he has a valid point. This one is pushing the limits of what I know how to do with graphics, so I can't make any promises. I wish I had the time and resources to learn 3D modeling. I'd love to do a realistic model of the molding for Mega-Tech, and I'd love to have even a crude 3D Arcade model for TX-1.

As far as other postings, there aren't a lot of places left to get good scans and photos that I don't already have or am skilled enough to do. Right now, my holy grails are good control panel photos of Subroc 3D and Boot Camp, and I'm not holding my breath. I do add shit to my Google Drive here and there, but not just anyone uses a portrait orientation monitor like I do, so the demand's not high.

Good to see you're still around, man.

And here is TX-1 in sketchup.
I may be able to help with this in some way. I use ArchiCAD but I dabble in Sketchup.

There is a MegaTech machine as well but I could not find Boot Camp or SubRoc. Gozer kicked out tons of cabinets years ago.

Definitely better than what I had. I just might be able to do this, but it won't happen fast.

If you can get it to work in 3D Arcade, I'm sure I'd soil myself.
