3D Arcade / Emulaxian is a very complete and fully skinnable and rotable frontend that can launch just about anything. It features powerful and fully customizable search and filter functions to find games fast. What makes it unique besides the sheer number of media that it supports to make your skins are the menu styles it can use. Besides the normal listbox with screenshots/cab layout you have a game like menu were you shoot at sprites to select menu items. And then there are the two virtual arcade interfaces were you can walk around in rooms filled with 3d models of cabs, select mp3's on a working jukebox and watch some movies on a movie screen. These arcades are also fully customizable...create your own personal arcade! INC FRUIT MACHINES..
WITH SUPPORT FOR YOUR EMULATOR......
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT

Yeah it good...:D

I did the support for the MFME in the FE and i have got BFMluator working in it to...:D

Well it 2 zip files to download.
Click on front End then click on the first part called " fe088part1.zip".

Once thats downloaded unzip it into a folder called 3darcade..

Click on the second part to download called "fe088part2.zip" and unzip that in to the same folder as the first keeping the subfolder structure..

then read this...

http://3darcade.mame...nd/fereadme.htm

Then when you run the FE and click on a model it will run that game...

Any help you need let me know...:D

after playing round with this a little bit more...i,m sure some of our superb designers could come up with some superb arcades and cabinets.
infact with the artwork already gathered i am sure a realistic arcade would be a very reachable goal.........and it can go online as well.....
somewere to meet and chat in a vitual arcade full of you fav machines..........


thats got to be a little bit tempting..

I think I tried this around 6 months-1 year ago with vpinball/vpinmame, just could not get it working right, may try with mfme and/or jpemu in a bit.

You can send all your models you make to the maker of 3D Arcade and if they are good enough he will put the in the model section of the site...

I would like to see your 3d model...

Here are my fruits...

I have just make a Outrun model too...:D

Have a look..

Ok no problems with this so far, trying to get mame working with it following the guide before I try mfme, but where it asks for the emu path

emupath|@emulatorsmame|#folder|Path that contains the executable.|

Does that mean I put the mame folder in C:3darcadecfgemulators? right now my mame folder is at C:mame can I just change the line to

emupath|@C:mame|#folder|Path that contains the executable.|

I dont have a clue someone help plz

Well the code is this...

emupath|C:mame|#folder|Path that contains the executable.|
gamepath||#folder|path to the items that have to be launched (for mame keep this empty and use the paths in mame.ini)|
workingdir|C:mame|#folder|set the working directory to this path. in most cases that will be the same as the emupath|
