hello, I was just wondering 3 things...

1. Where did u find that cool C-thru plexi stuff?
2. Does it come in blue?
3. Where is everyone getting those blue DC logos for the consoles and controllers?

I've got 3 Mods I'm working on now, and one is revolutionary, and I just found out how to make it a helluva lot better...not 2 brag...I'll post more on it including pix l8r...TNX :)

The blue logos were on PAL versions of dreamcast so unless you get your hands on a European version you're kinda stuck with the orange logo.

It would be nice to have a write up on how you did that window on devcast, and that goes for the others posting mods they have done, devcast wants all..........not just tuts, but write ups on mods

Hehehe...TNX, I'll Just go and buy a PAL DC on Ebay... I'm sure if I looked hard enough that I could find that Plexi stuff somewhere, I have to take pix of my MODs, but I can tell u some about them

1. A VMU that runs on 4 AAAs and has a LED that is on the top that goes on when you press a new button I put in. It also has an Earbud instead of a speaker(it fell out during the MODing process, so I got pissed and in 5 min had put in an earbud).Unfortunately this just busted :cry: but I will be making a better one soon.

2. I am Taking a GBA and putting it inside of a DC controller. I just found out that somone else had that idea, but failed (my respect), but I am almost finished with a "beta" versionof it. And just yesterday I had an idea that would make it even better/easier to do. You must keep in mind when I post pix that it is only an early version of it and there will be more to come.

3. I have just started this one, It is basically all of the LED MODs that I could find. I am doing them all in blue(that's why I wanted the blue plexi and the blue DC logo) and I will probrobly paint the buttons-faceplate-grey thing a good shade of blue. I am also making a matching controller and VMU...

Well, It looks like I will have to turn to ebay once again.... d@mn... I don't have much cash at all to do this....Meh...TNX 4 tellin me bout the PALs blue logo...now I have to go and order one... :(

....
Nemesis

UPDATE: O crap,....I have a problem... All of the PAL systems cost to much. If anybody is willing to swap logos or has a throw away DC PLZ let me know. I would send you a NTSC logo for a console and controller, and vica versa w/u. I would also pay...not mush...and USD...lol kinda useless. But this is very important to me. Plus I don't want to buy a whole console that I will never use (and I'm pretty sure that PAL systems don't work with NTSC tvs and crap). TNX

Am I the only one who finds it ironic that someone in an NTSC region wants a PAL system. Considering how much PAL gamers like to bitch about being badly treaten. :)

the only reason he wants a PAL system is for the emblems, im pretty sure he doesnt want to use it especially with the update he wrote.
