**Austin Thread MVC2**

Yeah, what Chris said. :slight_smile:
I played lots of Omega and lots of Spiral and I did lots of losing. And I’m trying to forget the few times I selected Iron Man.

An avatar in the works. Hopefully it turns out good.:slight_smile:

I played at LL yesterday and the 1st player side is now completely screwed. I kicked it tryin to break it but I failed. I will bring a hacksaw with me next time and cut the damn thing off. They will have to replace it then right?

I finally sat down last night and fixed my joystick. I tightened all the connections, secured wires, secured the board, and everything else. I think it is good to go except for one of the switches is kinda sketchy. I got online and ordered all new buttons(convex)and a bunch of replacement switches and a new joystick. So maybe the next time I put in a bag it won’t fuck up on me. Home get togethers can be possible when I get this all straightened out. Hopefully soon cuz LL is fucked!!!

PS Kung lao rulez minh! great avatar.

is there any place to buy controller stuff in austin or do we have to order it from happ?

Well, we fucked up on the next control we tried…<sigh> we tried to take a shortcut by soldering straight on the jigsaw wire where the buttons go and cutting off the ground before that so that having solder on both sides wouldn’t matter. We tried it out on the board we messed up before this and it worked, so we did the same to this one expecting this one to work also, but of course it didn’t.

Took pictures too if anyone wants to see.

There is a place in cedar park on 1431 towards jonestown called PinballWizard. They work out of a couple of self-storage garages. They have some stuff but when I went they didn’t have the convex buttons. They gave me a new joystick for 10 bucks and since I wanted the convex buttons and they didn’t have them the guy gave me 7 used buttons and some cherry switch replacements for free. You should call them and see what they have. I am not sure of the brand name of my stick but it works great. They also have some used cabinets, boards, and pins for sale for pretty cheap. I am thinkin of gettin one of the pins they have once they refurbish it. They had MK2 there for cheap too and it was real hard not for me not to write the check and take that sucka home right then. That was a game!

Did. You. Say. PINS?? For Sale?! CHEAP!?!
Dude, you would probably never see me again were I to fill up my garage with some pinball machines. I’ve always wanted to buy some. Unfortunately, I just bought a digital piano, and I’m all out of mad money…

My stick seems to be better than ever. I’ve also got a happ competition joystick and a bunch of convex buttons that I’ll probably never use. I dunno if I’ll ever get around to making a second controler. Bring on the get togethers…

brad has a super joystick a SUPER!! hes joystick is super!!

If we start having home get togethers, those of you with sticks will share with those that don’t have the know how to make one, right? :smiley:

no!!

:eek: :eek: :eek:
:frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

I hear ya on that one Kevin…:frowning: :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

well it tooks us 3 controllers but my friend Ben and I finally got our stick done right.

PinWIzard eh? I might go there tomorrow. I’ll give em a call.

yea… of course!.. was thinking of putting a fat buhda/monk but kung lao is too cool…:smiley:

Avatar

hey im into makin avatars, but i dont have anyone that knows me well enough to ask me for one, so if you need an avatar, or just want a badass avatar, then ask me. do any of you live near, or play at lakeline, that is the closest place to me and very few people have been coming lately. well lata i guess

Hey kid, I want an avatar of eitherr the PBR sign(pabst blue ribbon), the StPauli girl, schlitz malt liquor bull or maybe Billy D williams drinkin a colt45. If you don’t mind that is. I don’t have any idea where to get images for this so if can’t find them don’t worry about it.
Noone goes to LL lately because of the 1st player side. It doesn’t block low sometimes and half circles are very iffy. When they replace or repair it ppl will come back I guess. After all there is no where else to play.

My name is brad by the way AKA Incredible Hulk.

hey kid can u make me something with Captain Commando in the middle, u can add watever u think is nice around it…i just need something clean.

This sucks, we really don’t have a place to play for a while. I’m going to LL to check out the sticks and complain to them if they’re bad, if people come I’ll play on the 1st player side because I don’t know why, but as long as I stand slanted I can play on those sticks alright. They’re not as good as the 2nd player side for sure but they work for some people. If anyone going to come, post up I’ll probably be there at 3, staying until around 6.

Even if you complain i doubt that they’ll fix it :mad: Maybe if we broke MvC2 like the 3s machine they might fix it :evil: lol but then the game would suck even more. neh ill think of something eventually

Oh yea Kid, do you think you can make me one with a Yingyang in the back ground with Yun and Yang standing side by side or something of that sort? thanks any way

hey, btw my names doug. if you dont feel like callin me kid then call me doug. yea, well im startin on the avs, and i did find pics of a pabst blue ribbon, st. pauli girl and the schiltz malt liquor bull or whatever that was. and the capcom thing will be easy. i am still in the process of finding yun/yang pics but that shouldnt be too hard. well i am gonna go, i am on a really tight scedule this week. pool then to freestyle to work, really sux. but i think that at my freestyle job i can get the avs in while tryin new stuff in the graphic art programs. o, and soon you will be able to see all of the work i do on my web site, http://www.sk8.to it will be cool once i get it all up and running but it really isnt done yet. and dont break the mvc2 machine it will suk after that, the strong button might break like on 3s, lata all
