MEDIACADE 4.0 {WIP}
« on: May 24, 2012, 05:56:49 PM »
Well i decided that since i make everything for customers id make one for myself this one will use my custom design that i use on my mediacades but this one will have a few upgrades.since this will be my main media center i wanna be able to use it for work and fun so here is the idea.modifiy my original design for my cabs add 2 monitors led buttons sound mods and a ton more.harware wise this thing will be a monster here is a list of what it will have.
1.the unit will be based off of a modded xbox with a mod chip and 1tbhdd with ram upgrade loaded with every xbox game plus emulators and xbmc with custom UI dash and all.
2.since the room its in is small i will add a 32inch 3d tv.
3.23inch widescreen lcd tv/monitor as the marquee/pc monitor(for work/modding)
4.Gaming PC as media hub/gaming/working
5.new appletv
6.built in dock for the new ipad
6.keyboard tray
7.modded ps3/xbox 360 jtag
i have a few other ideas but this is the basic idea of what im going for the hole system will be controlled with the ipad here are a few pics of what i did so far.still waiting on led buttons and a few other parts.

i started with the wood and such...
[spoiler][/spoiler]
started to build the base
[spoiler]
[/spoiler]
then the leg supports
[spoiler]
[/spoiler]
then the control box
[spoiler]


[/spoiler]
will have more in next post.

EDIT:
ok everything is starting to come togather nice i got the art work in for the control panel and i also cut the plexiglass for the top i bought wood letters to make out my tag teams logo on the side of the cab and i padhacked the 2 xbox controllers.

[spoiler][/spoiler]
cab starting to take shape.
[spoiler]
[/spoiler]
plexi cut
[spoiler][/spoiler]
art work
[spoiler][/spoiler]
wood letters for logo
[spoiler][/spoiler]
controllers hacked
next i will start the paint job.

EDIT 2:
ok so the cab got 3 coats of primer and 3 coats of black gloss paint next ill start preping the xbox for install.
[spoiler]

[/spoiler]

EDIT 3:
so i figured out a way to use the arcade sticks and a normal controller from the same ports with the hack in the video this was my first time trying this and it worked out great.the arcade sticks will always stay connected and when you plug in a controller it will override the arcade controls Pad Hacking innovation

EDIT 4:
side art for the legs of the cab painted and ready to be installed this is my tag team logo for wrestling.i laid them on a black background so you can get a idea for the finish product.
[spoiler][/spoiler]

video.
this is my tag team in one of my recent matches for ECW i'm ruckus my partner is jeez Extreme Reunion Tag Match THE DRAMATICS vs BLK OUT Ruckus & Jeez 04282012


ok just figured out how to work this thread so sorry to everyone for overpost i guess thats what i was doing but here are pics of
test fitting parts...
