Anyone here using mugen in a cabinet, arcade monitor or scart tv with an ArcadeVGA or simmilar card, displaying at 321x240 15khz non-interlaced? I could take some snapshots or record a video of my setup, but believe me, nothing can compare to this. You can mimic arcade display with MAME rgb effects and with mugen scanlines (there's no way to use gb effects in mugen, is it?), but it's miles away from the quality of real low res in the adequate display device. Moreover, a 29" screen makes a big difference. I encourage you to try, even if you can only use a svideo out. The quality and the stability of the picture are much wose, but it's not as bad as the worst device of all: a pc monitor. Real scanlines, colors blending gracefully... it's exactly the picture you get in old arcade cabs. My setup uses an ArcadeVGA with a direct homemande VGA-SCART connector and a big CRT TV-set. I have this computer just for MAME, and now for mugen too. The control panels are also homemade.

No backlit marquee = FAIL.
I dig the monitor though.

It's not intended to be a beautiful or authentic arcade cab, but a gaming desktop for arcade games. The tv-set stands on a inclined table. I can rotate it manually (it's heavy, but not difficult when you know how), when I want to play vertical games such as 19XX, Strikers, Varth, Gunbird, etc. I also put the tv in front of the table (not inclined) when I wish to watch movies from a confortable armchair. The black marquee you see is just a piece of removable PVC I use for hiding the tvset from my view when I'm playing.

converting a psx pad to an arcade controlles is a n00b project, judging by the easiness of it, so it'sn a good point to start with.
