    Default 3D frontend... what was that called?

    I'm looking for the emulator frontend that simulates an actual trip to an arcade, complete with arcade cabinets and passersby. What was its name?

    I remember a website I visited long ago that was like this, but a frontend I have never seen. Sounds interesting however!

    You must be referring to the mysteriously titled "3D Arcade", the 3D arcade frontend for MAME

    Sweet! Yeah, that's the one. It looks great, too... I've just got to try it!
    Has anyone else played around with this frontend?

    Only today. It's not bad so far. It seems that it defaults to a higher resolution than I normally use. (It uses 1024x768 while I'm normally running at 800x600.)
    It's nicer, of cours, one you download the other 3-D models for it. It helps the illusion more than the default of every machine being "Galaxain".
