PM M4rIo he knows about these machines, and is based in Italy.

Ah, but security is patched on BOTE and PE.

Also IC1-8 are 64MB mask type, so good luck converting that. Spikeout/Spikeout FE/Daytona 2 BOTE and Ocean Hunter all use 64MB roms on board.

Actually was bit more complicated, as Magical Truck uses a secret region code in the test mode - however on this game it didn't work, as Sega also use the sound eprom and sound roms as part of the region identifier. Only m3 game to-do so.

Doubt you'll find one, it's extremely uncommon - only venues that took it when it was released was places like CEC (Chucky-E-Cheese), and they scrapped them all years ago. I did help a guy in the US convert a Japan to English one few years back, and that is the only person I helped with one in...

Remember HDMI requires a monitor that can handle HDCP if I remember correctly.

Maybe "ok" for a little home use, but no for operational use in an arcade for 8+ hours a day, the 3.3v and 5v are far too regulated, and heck I'd be surprised if its even 4.8v when it hits the board, plus if your powering MPEG, Drive board etc, then it's probably close to pushing the limits...

Never use an ATX PSU to power Model 3, unless you want a lot of disappointment..

If it's running the original 760GTX video card, then that is most likely the cause.

Try contacting Tecnoplay/Tecnojoy in Italy, as they made the cabinet.

Bad 16bit buffers, cost more to repair, than buy another VS3 sadly.

Very nice... only two issues. 1) I am broke 2) and Christmas is months away

You tried Play IT amusements, The overlay is part 99-30-151

Eh, Sega Serial and Midi board use the exact same protocol, just the transport method that is different - one being RS422/RS232 (depending on jumpers if you got the jumper version), and Midi - apart from that it's identical - I have F-Zero AX (triforce) running perfectly on a Sega Lindbergh FFB...

Any photos?? Price? So that would take say Lindbergh Outrun 2 and convert the RS232 or RS422 to Midi for the Initial D1/2/3 type midi board? I know the command set is identical to both, as I wrote a document on the commands/protocol.
