redferatu Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Here is my next project, thanks again to @borgattard , champion. This came I got 2 out of the 5 locks open without drilling. But I just couldn't get to the others from inside. This thing is covered in coke, inside and out. Literally like someone poured a 2l bottle on it. As you can imagine everything is sticky to the point of not working. But the board and chassis are clean as. Monitor needs a degauss, eventual chassis refurbish. Kick harness repair. I'm replacing all the switches, sticks, and cleaning up the buttons and everything else. I'll make an NAC topper and add some of the art work I want. I'll probably give it a respray too as the paint is pretty bad Plan is to go a mister + jpac combo. Jotego is hitting cps1 hard and beta out this month, so fingers crossed we'll get cps 1+2 with accuracy. Otherwise I'll enjoy SF2hyper for a while. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonjo Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Nice project! Looking forward to hearing how you go @redferatu , particularly keen to hear your experience with mister/jpac. Keep us posted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redferatu Posted February 25, 2020 Author Share Posted February 25, 2020 I'm going to make two new panels also, single player and two player. I don't want to screw into the original and if I make one, might as well make two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redferatu Posted February 27, 2020 Author Share Posted February 27, 2020 One new panel. It is flipped over for no reason. I am hoping to have this up and running over the weekend. Not complete, but keen to play. @namastepat I'll put some Sanwa obsf in this time. Sanwa sticks, I'll change them to ball tops when I buy more buttons. I am using repro art work for a 1p and a 2p panel, sides, etc. I made an instruction card that I'll share and I'll make a marquee. They will be for SF2: hyper fighting, using original graphics, just cleaned up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redferatu Posted February 28, 2020 Author Share Posted February 28, 2020 Here is the art I'm going with. Full size available if you would like pm me I might clean up the card. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redferatu Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 I gave it a really good clean but there is just too much paint missing. So I took a photo before I forgot. These things are really great to pull apart. I have changed the way I spray so I am thinking six light coats and it should be ready to reassemble. I think I'll make my own marquee holder, just trying to work out what to use. Might use some thicker perspex, but stick onto, rather than sandwich.

redferatu Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Respray. just waiting on the art and mister now. Deguassing fixed the colour in the top left. Coming a long nicely. I broke the tube, the seal was old so removing it was the end of it. Likely replace with led.

dzhay1981 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Let me know how the Mister goes. Considering getting one myself. It's really the whole 'how does this play in a cab' that is holding me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dzhay1981 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 They're the best looking of the more modern candies imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redferatu Posted March 31, 2020 Author Share Posted March 31, 2020 I like the NAC, but I'm not that picky. I am not a big fan of the egret for playing to be honest. Played a bunch in Japan, the ergonomics I found to be better on sega cabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redferatu Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 Art applied to the control panel and I made the marquee from scratch. Looking good. Just need a new move list. I 3D printed a coin slot and a new coin mech internally. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonjo Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Marquee looks awesome @redferatu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redferatu Posted May 25, 2020 Author Share Posted May 25, 2020 Yeah, I am really happy with it. Not really original. Little more tapered than normal, and the whole thing. But, looks good and how it should be. The image was so low res to begin with, I pushed it I think getting it that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonjo Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 I like how it’s the full size of the marquee holder. That looks great. Solid colour! Is it a sticker mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redferatu Posted May 26, 2020 Author Share Posted May 26, 2020 So yeah, I cut out the marquee out of acrylic, then vinyl applied on top of that. This is the original image I mucked around with https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/95/Street_Fighter_II_Dash_Turbo_%28flyer%29.PNG/220px-Street_Fighter_II_Dash_Turbo_%28flyer%29.PNG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
