The Official Street Fighter IV TE/SE Fighstick Template Thread

How about you use your fucking brain instead of asking us to hold your hand through it?

People these days, I swear.

Man thats the sexiest Chun Li picture I’ve seen! Great taste man! Man everyone on here has mad artistic skills! I’m so jealous… I have ordered all the sanwa parts and just waiting to mod my stick. I don’t have the graphics design skill to do what you all have been doing :shake:

MAD PROPS to the SFIV Community!!!

dont u think if i could use my brain i wouldnt have to ask for help or are u 2 dumb to realize that? OR are ur internet pantys caught up in an internet bundle… it amazes me how many ppl take time out of their day just to type non helpful bullshit… if ur not gonna help the cause pass it up or has the adult in u not flourished yet?

Wow.

I don’t even know what to say to this.

You type like you’ve got downs and then ask me if I’m an adult.

You even spell ‘flourished’ correctly, after a million grammar errors before that.

I don’t even know what to say.

I’m at a loss for words.

But yeah, I’m not going to help you. If you can’t look and find the thread on ‘How To: Apply Art to your SE Fightstick’ (THATS THE THREAD TITLE I SWEAR GUYS) then you’re blind.

Let by gones be by gones and battle it out on SFIV!

I would use a comic book version of the Joker if your going to use that color scheme.

Anybody know where it might be possible to get high-res pics of the stages themselves? I was thinking of using the Pitch-black jungle stage as a backdrop for a TE stick. Thanks…

I absolutely adore how you did the miniature Chun-Li sprites to show which button it was. Very creative, very sleek. Emphasis on adore.

Skitso buddy I’m gonna help you out cause today not only did I get custom art for the TE that I posted but I also got custom art done for my brothers SE. I’m not sure which one you are rocking, but I’ll tell you what worked for us and what could probably be better. Save your template without the the template holes on them, because if something is slightly off it will be highly noticable. Take you template to kinkos. Tell them you want a print on 32 or 28 pound paper, standard 8.5x11. (I asked for 32 but they only had 28 and 60, you can try 60 if you are feeling brave.) Tell them not to scale it at all. Make sure they do this because the first one they printed up for me was way too small because they scaled it down, I don’t think the guy knew what he was doing. Then once you got it printed tell them you want it lami-labeled. It’s a laminate that is adhesive on the back and pretty much makes you art a giant sticker. Don’t be afraid to make them print it over a few times if it gets a bunch of air bubbles in it. After that open your stick and remove the original art off the metal plate so that you can take the metal plate off. Stick the art on the metal plate and flip it over and cut the holes for the stick, the buttons, the turbo control panel, and the screw holes using the metal plate itself with an x-acto or hobby knife, this way it’s all lined up perfect and you wont have any mishaps with button holes not being lined up and what not. Then put it all back together.

For TE they gave me a regular piece of paper. They tried to print it on the matte side of a single sided thick gloss paper but their laminator was messed up so it didn’t work, it was just their machine though, you might be able to get it done at your local store. But for mine it was regular stock paper and a regular laminate. They don’t make lami-label for 17X11 so I had to buy some double sided scoth tape. Take the metal plate out and remove the original art. cover the metal plate with the double sided tape and stick the art to it and trace the holes using the plate just like with the SE.

That’s how we got our two done. They both turned out good save for some minor cutting errors and unaligned button holes that were purely our fault. The art looks great and it holds up under the pressure of using the controller. I might get a vinyl print like likkuid in the future just because I’m a big fan of vinyl and I think it would look ever better, but for this $4-5 method you really can’t beat it for either stick. Hope this helps.

dude that was fning hilarious … lmao… thanks

Hell yeah I love the stick with directions "forward flip etc.’

The black white is still a little off though, try scaling it a little bigger.

The old Capcom thinks looked like more like Marble or those old School notebooks than TV Fuzz.

SFII:CE b

Ok almost.

The capcom style looked between the two versions you have.

The scaling on the marble look was not as small as your first one, but not as big as your new version.

Something in the middle would be freakin perfect!
:tup:

Definitely more like the first one.

I disagree.

Reasons to turn off the non-art layers of the template before printing:

-The standard template’s button circles are too big so you would end up with white circles around the buttons
-Having the art slightly larger than the actual metal plate allows you to move it around as you see fit and also makes cutting easier
-Flattening the .psd results in a smaller file size, which will load faster on the printer’s computer

I’m gonna have to agree with getting rid of the white holes in the template. Just print it without any holes then if you really really have to have a guide other than the hole in the metal plate, I’m sure you can buy plastic circles with specified diameters. That way it’s impossible to get the white circles around the buttons.

IMO it’s always better to have too much since you can always take away, you can’t add.

Where did you get the Vinyl label done at?

Maven please don’t quote images, especially when they don’t highly relate to your question.

Not sure where Hak got his done, but I ordered my vinyl fromMAME Marquees and their service has been excellent so far.

That’s a nice design you’ve got going there. Where’d you get the Chun art from?
