Good places to order from in Europe? My current one is starting to shit itself and I'm too lazy to replace everything.

Is the WWE Brawl Pad any good? How easy is it to replace the art on it?

Last Gen sticks were so comfy

I think snakeyes used one or a variant of one before he switched to a different controller. So I guess they are okay. Found this about changing the art. forums.shoryuken.com/discussion/109309/tutorial-how-to-mod-a-madcatz-fightpad-internal-external-mods

>pad
Goddamn I'm fucking retarded. I meant stick.

bump

Yeah they are pretty good. It's easy to swap to sanwa or semitsu stick or certain korean sticks. Same thing with the buttons. The stock parts are okay for the most part. As for changing art it isn't too hard, just get a heat gun or hair dryer and pry it up. Replacement art you have to go to a printing store since no one online offers printing service for that stick. Either use the best paper with an adhesive back or print using the best paper and use spray adhesive. There is an art template somewhere just google it.

Where can I buy a case that accepts art but isn't absurdly fancy and expensive?

Ok, by needing a printing store do you mean for the holes?

Arcadeworlduk has never let me down.

At least post a stick
There is the Makestick pro, but they ship from Korea so the $40 case will have $50 shipping. Best bet if probably making your own.

no I mean needing a printing store to print your artwork unless you want to use your inkjet printer or something. The holes you have to cut yourself.

Oh ok, I have a printer, I guess ill do that instead

Some changes, Unlicensed PCB shouldn't be considered a con. Out of production shouldn't be a con because both can still be found easily on sites like Amazon and Newegg. C tier should be D tier or trash tier, Qanba Crystal only has its blue leds. Qanba's parts are way worse than Hori's parts and swapping all the buttons and joystick you might as well just save a little more to get an Obsidian. Makestick Pro issue is difficulty to obtain it. Both Hori products shouldn't even be near D tier. Hori Haybusa parts aren't even that bad, the joystick is very similar to Sanwa's JLF and the buttons aren't for everyone, but still aren't as bad as Qanbas. Both Hori sticks should at least be in B tier if not A tier. Mayflash stick should at least be D tier.

Cute

got to post the classic

What's the deal with Tekken and Korean sticks?
I'm curious as to why they're great with Tekken

Got the RAP4 Kai a year ago, one of the stock buttons broke a month ago plus the stick was wobbly, so i swapped out all the hori parts for sanwa parts. Best decision i ever made.

I would pay good money to see that used in a tourney.

L M A O

Enjoy your finger cramps bitch

Just bought this for $60, did I fuck up? I only play on PC.

Did you get the reference?

That's a steal for 60 bucks, assuming its actually in good condition, and it's the tournament edition, not the standard edition.

>using a d-pad for quarter circle and half circle moves instead of a much more precise ball end stick

Good luck pulling off z shape stick moves on a d-pad in XRD REV2.

>I actively choose to limit myself to two fingers on the controls instead of 10

>anime fighting game
>he thinks z shape motions are complex

K E K

I got silent stick and buttons.

You're gay?

>I think inputting things on the harder control scheme isn't that bad so I'll actively gimp myself
ok

Where'd you get those stickers? I wanted to buy meme buttons for customization purposes but they were like 6 times the cost of regular buttons lol.

I hate stickers on sticks, especially on the beauty stock art of the TES+, but it's KOF so I'll forgive you user.

Just get these and put art in them
paradisearcadeshop.com/button-stuff/732-sanwa-obsc-clear-plunger.html

Bought it on ebay. Search fightstick and newly listed and it was there. From the photos it looks in good condition.

Stickers look like shunao's art

I've grown to hate SFV and love KOF. Gonna throw more on there.

That looks just like what I'm looking for, so that's a shame.
I know I should just make a case but I don't have much tool access and I don't trust myself to make it not look like shit, right now my case is a cardboard box

how silent is it? Is it silent enough to play on a plane without disturbing anyone?

Current, Changing art soon.

>shmup player in a stick thread
my nibba

It's a shame it's so hard to find art

Changing it to this. All translucent buttons with art inserts.

Fuck no. It's quiet enough that nobody else in my house has to hear it when I play. There's just no loud ass clicking. The stick hitting the gate still makes noise, hitting the buttons still makes noise.

All it does is remove the microswitch clicks.

Yeah it's a nightmare, I got all the DFK background by screencapping during training mode transistions and Saidaioujou art from a youtube video.

I wish we'd get SDOJ on Steam someday, I really don't feel like buying a 360 just to play it

hey, i drew that

You could just commission any half decent artist.
Some can even straight just make something HD for you

I feel ya, I took my 360 out of retirement just to play it, I'd had it since release but didnt get into it until now. My Steam ID is Breaknoon if you wanna shmupchat.

Kenny is looking tired as fuck these days

Haven’t changed the art yet. Waiting til I can commision someone like Kawacy for Valkenhayn (BB) or Sanson (FGO) art.

oh yeah and here's my current stick to stay on topic

wish those kof stickers had sylvie but nakoruru and mai will have to do.

That a Panzer 3?

Where would I even start looking for an artist?

Too bad jif

yep, shit is mad heavy

(also one of my photoshop brushes accidentally brushed in the middle photo while i was stitching the photos together oops)

Bumping with some older art.

At FGC events? You can check some tables and stuff. Most of them are on twitter as well.
I'm one myself but I don't wanna shill myself, also I'm full with guilty gear stick artwork.

you have the exact same button color /stick as me, except i made the white row gold.

Cute

wheres the best place to get stick artwork

Nah, online.

That's why I said Twitter. You still want to look for FGC artists though.

heres a pic of mine

nice!

Thanks, Any way I could contact you specifically? For when your workload is lighter that is.

So many fightstick pros and Hori raps

It's all the same stick, I just like mixing the art up.

I also put a bunch of character buttons in my other stick to look extra tacky. Kind of like having an ugly chick around to make you look better in comparison.

>p over k
m8 u fuckin up, p is on the bottom

Should I change my sanwas to a seimitsu if I'm having input problems?

Probably his personal layout, I play the same way

>Can't think of any art that I want to put for mine yet
How did you decide what art you wanted? Did you browse at random until something clicked?

y'all are FUCKED when arcades make a resurgence!

P K S D
HS

Only way to play.

pretty sure xrd cabs let you pick multiple layouts

Just find art from a booru or something, upscale if needed and put it in an easily available photoshop template for your stick

First should be your main and then after that your waifu or whatever your favorite seasonal anime is.

I was going to buy a Qanba Obsidian, but then WonFes happened.
I guess the cramps from playing on an Xbox pad won't hurt so much after a while.

Where do i print a custom template for my stick?

That layout is actually available without customization in JP arcades

Anyone have any thoughts on the Hori Fighting Edge? I'm considering getting one.

tek-innovations

I'm building a second controller really soon (I enjoy making things), do you guys know where to get the full measurements of commercial controllers? Instead of going for a custom box I thought about going for the commercial fighting stick look.

ow

I want to get a hitbox to bring to locals. Used to playing on keyboard.

Think about it for a while, something will come to you. I was originally planning to use touhou art but I ended up making an astro city design. For my new stick I'm probably using some kind of Dodonpachi art.

It's pretty inexpensive to swap art around as long as your parts colors look nice with other things
