Just Finished Custom Vewlix! *artwork files updated 8-6*

@goldenaustin: How is the joystick looking, any pics? Hope you go thru with the Vewlix.

Its Snow Leopard on the Mac, I been in love with mac for 3 years now. I knew more about mac in 1 year then i did windows in probably 8 years lol. One of those things certain things just click with people.

cobra awesome job man… I honestly wish i could make that… Im not really handy with woodworking lol. Awesome stuff though. Very jealous. :slight_smile: Ill just play on a 50" Tv instead :wink:

Unfortunately, no. I have a TE and an Arcade in a Box for the Xbox360 and they wouldn’t look right together. I also don’t really want to buy another TE for $100-$150 right now. So, I’m going to do the next best thing. I’ll be using my two Virtua Stick High Grades and designing a control panel around those. :slight_smile:

@tokerblue: Craigslist is your friend, I got my 2nd TE for $50. If you wanted to do the TE’s just keep checking your area and you would be surprised what pops up. Are you gonna mod the virtua sticks or are you gonna build the cab according to those?

  • LOL. I think I just want to avoid owning so many joysticks. Plus, what will I do with my Arcade in a Box? :frowning:

I’m actually going to build the cab around the VSHG’s. A plus is that I do like the 6 button layout better and I like how all of the buttons are on the face (Start, Select). I’m going to build another tray to actually hold the VSHG since they are a little shorter than the TE’s. The good thing though is that I built the cabinet around the TE height, so using those wouldn’t be an issue.

Finally, I don’t use the VSHG’s for anything right now since I don’t usually play fighting games on the PS3. Almost all of my friends are on the 360, so that’s the version I usually buy.

After looking for the last 4 days for stools or whatever was “similar” to vewlix seating I went with these:

It has a cushion and is black and metal lol so close enough. they are comfy too been playing on them last few hours.

Can you perhaps upload a RAR of all the files for the stickers and such for me if you still have them? The link on Donovan’s site leads to a error page, and I can’t seem to find them. Would appreciate it.

Thanks!

i was woundering where did you dl your mame emulater at?

  • Just wanted to check. Were these the stools that you ended up with? It looks like them in the last picture. How are they holding up?

Yep I got those, they work fine. had a bunch of friends over and we all been playing sitting getting up. Plus i try and play every day lol and so far they been fine. Your Cab is looking great BTW

Thank you for the art, its going to help a lot of us. Where did you get it? Do you rememeber how we can get it printed at kinkos? Size of paper and stuff?

those custom viewlix pictures are awsome!

My friend at kinkos printed directly from those files i shared. He laminated them also. Not sure if you go into the kinkos if they will give you trouble on copyright issues. Your best bet is if you know someone who has access at work with printing and laminating.

Just finished a custom bezel for all my mame 4:3 ratio games, It looks great in action on the cab.
