The "I just made..." thread.

Wrapped up converting one of my Rush 2049 cabinets with an LCD monitor in anticipation of turning it into a racing emulation cabinet in the next month or so. I think it came out very well and nearly looks stock IMO. Now I have to do it to my other one.

I got my hands on 2 16:10 25.5" ASUS monitors which are the best possible fit for both 4:3 and 16:9 games in this thing, and was tricky to find considering it's a 15 year old monitor and I saw less than 10 of them across the entire country.

Man Rush 2049 is one of my all time favorites. Does the arcade version include the stunt mode like the home console ports did?

It does not unfortunately. I loved playing the stunt mode on Dreamcast though. It does have the coins though that you can hunt for.

Damn if this isn't already on the drives that I'm getting, I may have to grab that myself so I can play it at that resolution and FPS. That looks noticeably better than the OG game.

I am pretty surprised how good the OG game looks straight up on LCD though, even stretched. It's definitely more vivid too than the CRT.

Here's a comparison video I made after finishing up the first conversion with the arcade hardware. It's hard to get a real quality comparison with this kind of video but you can see the aspect ratio and stuff. I wrapped up the 2nd one last night too and am now just waiting on the hardware to interface the cabinets with the PC before I do the emulation conversion.

I wish someone would release a proper Cisco Heat remake, without the weird compromises they had to make in the animations due to the limitations of that era.
