Digital Marquee
#357978 - 08/25/16 01:30 PM


Hi,

I want to have a digital marquee but due to the prices of those open frame led screens, I don't know if I schould install 2 smaller displays or 1 big.

So my question is: can mame handle 3 screen where 2 are used for the digital marquee, where those 2 displays will form 1 big screen (the marquee will be splitted) and 1 for the game display ?

Thanks
Regards
Philippe

What kind of cab? Some later Golden Tee and Gaunlet cabs had marquees the size of a 27" widescreen. If you're building your own, do that, yo.

The easier way to do this is to use a fullsize screen, but set it at an angle and/or design the cabinet so that only 1/3 of the screen is showing up top...and the rest is buried.

marquee sized screens are possible, but hella expensive to have cut.
