Good thing i got the jnx adapter but what does oem filter actually do?
This filter board says copyright 1989 Atari (predates the game) and it is literally used as a line filter to protect against any interference going to the board via the lines, or going outward through Jamma. I guess with a PCB like this and it’s accompanying slab of metal underneath, there could very well be interference!
 
Quick question i got pcb enclosure assembled and theres an issue with the jamma connection staying in place with out bending down since there's no support to hold it. I just placed the 2 extra rubber inserts to hold it in place how you guys do it?

Looks great by the way 🤙🏼
 
Everyone, I just wanted to share what will hopefully be a final update. I have been absolutely buried at work and have either forgot or pushed-off wrapping up the mounting feet.

I do believe everything is finalized today (pics attached). I'm letting this hang over night, but it's very sturdy. These last pieces will be going out sometime this week.

Just in case anyone else could use this, I designed some adapters for the original filter board to attach to the JNX Rage standoffs. I originally intended to use the JNX Rage but I realized it messes with the button mappings now that I upgraded to v2.3J, which "fixes" all the button issues and adds a bunch of quality of life fixes.

That is awesome! @clintkolodziej would you like me to print some in the same matching filament I used for the side brackets? This applies to anyone else who would like these.

Going to have to look into this 2.3J Rev! That sounds awesome! Thanks for the heads up! 👍🏼
 
Oh! So the adapter doesnt work as expected with V2.3J roms then? Lets ping him @XianXi in case he is not aware.
I believe the adapter remaps buttons on the jamma edge, which you don’t really want when the buttons aren’t all goofy like the original rom revisions were. This version I believe was intended to make the game playable on Japanese cabs that have a more traditional 4 or 6 button + start layout, where the original cab shared start with one of the attack buttons (if I recall).

Here’s the guide I followed, it has a high level overview of the changes as well. I had to get the roms out of a newer mame romset.

PS: Kudos to @XtraSmiley for originally pointing me to this new rom revision

That would be cool, I love the filament you used, I only had gray or neon green on hand, which didn’t look too bad but black or red would have fit better. I need to pick up something a bit more polished next time I order, these I mainly use for prototypes or small utility parts.

yes you are correct that is the entire intention behind the JINX adapter board (changing out the location of the start and attack button). I really want to try the 2.3J rev now 🤩🙌🏼
 
So it took forever, but slowly I pieced everything together for this project. I figured I would post this up here. Following in the HornheaDD's footsteps I converted an Arcade1up to an actual Primal Rage Arcade! Using the PCB and the amazing enclosure, and basically the same steps that DD took, I was able to create this! I needed something small that would fit in my office. I even added a working coin door for fun! I just finally got the coin door in, and the last piece is to add the front panel Primal Rage artwork. I was waiting until I was able to check the coin door fitment. I will post some shots of the interior of the cab once I finalize the front art and clean things up.

Aw man that thing looks way nicer than mine 🤩 🤩

Awesome job. I may have to look out for one of those cabs and upgrade!

I can't believe a giant PCB like Primal Rage can fit inside that. :wideyed:

Thank you! Yours is still awesome. I picked the big blue cab because it had a similar shape to the OG Primal Rage cab, plus I found a cheap one to pick up. It turned out pretty awesome, but damn, you guys aren't kidding, it was hard to cram everything in it lol.
