Best Ultimate Tech Talk Hang Out Loud Edition Season V

if the price is right

So, I’ve just skimmed by gameongrafix since I’m seriously considering dual modding my SE.
can anyone explain exactly how do i order artwork for an SE?

Kicking myself for letting my most expensive CPS2 board suicide. Easy to forget when you don’t have to change the batteries out every year.

I wish i could actually tell you… I’m in the middle of a conversation with their help desk, going pretty slowly. The guy said they already have a template for a TE, none for an SE yet. I suggested that they put up either of those two for regular options, because they’d be very popular, no response back yet.

who the hell is oldschoolfool and why did he just pm this

that actually seems like a really sad life.

Cant believe u had someone pm u like that lol.

so true very sad life indeed.

So, anybody with alot of money wanna plunk a load of cash on this?
Sega Twin Stick + BUILT-IN Super Gun + NEO GEO MVS BIOS - eBay (item 270637817544 end time Oct-20-10 09:52:15 PDT)

HSS-0130 with a built in NEO-GEO MVS. I drooled.

For $700? No way in hell.
The power cord looks to be foreign and hardwired.
The built in supergun has no support for kick harness (i.e. Street Fighter) games.
Why have eight buttons per player if the harness can handle at most four?
P2 stick is bolted through the CP instead of to a mounting bracket.
Come with a MVS with a home burned Unibios. Not that exciting.
No internal pics.

i spent the whole night and morning trying to dual mod my chun li stick. the dual mod works but the hex inverter didnt work. it turns out that my ground wire is clipped off. too tired to resolder everything and i need sleep.

and one other thing, i’m kicking my own ass since i didnt buy another set or two of the madcatz clear shaft cover. shit is NICE. if

anyone going to order from their store anytime soon?

Before I got to the part where you wrote HSS-0130, I was thinking “What does Virtual-On have to do with Neo Geo?”

When I ordered the art for my custom I just sent the .pdf of the template and trimmed it once it came back. As long as teh borders and bleed area are turned on, it shouldn’t be too hard to cut it out.

So I suddenly had the idea of wiring up a stick with a USB drive so that plugging it in to a PC launches an emulator running some fighting games (likely MAME or FBA).

You can set it up so that the emulator was on the list of selectable actions when plugged in, but only on XP and possibly Vista. I know on Win7 they removed that feature.
U3 drives might be a different story, but I’ve never worked with those.

I might probably just write an autorun for it. Still need to wait for the actual stick. Might end up doing this with the HSS-0136 since it’s a nice, compact case (that I’m practically stealing from the guy).

I’m just going to wait until I find out what type of cp overlay I’m going to use. And not waste money on buttons that don’t match for some reason.

If anyone in TO wanted their hands on some old shit like Saturn Pads, or old consoles, hit up play n trade, stuff is slightly priced more than what they’re worth, but never the less they have stuff. Saw 2 original Saturn pads model 1 and 2, didnt realize they were so valued by people on SRK.

Sorry. I’ve been traveling/busy lately :frowning:
