Okay, lets vector this one:
To begin, i have a question.. ( i think i know the answer ::) )
I have done a preliminary setup in AI of this and have the following conclusion:
the original is not exactly centered...

i have done some positioning and made a detail shot :

Question is , do you want it to be an exact copy of the NOS , or do you want a perfect positioned repro ?
I think the answer must be the second, but its not my machine where this repro is going to be, so let me know what you guys want please 8)

I have created the guidelines, and the rounded guides for the corners..

Last step... find the best way to print it ;)
One again, thanks for this great work, and for sharing the result to the Arcade Community!
Made In Europe guys... Hell yeah! ;D
-
:spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace: to Etienne !!!
Indeed the best thing about this is that Europe now has it's own vector-god ;D ;D ;D
Best place to print, no doubt in my mind: www.thisoldgame.com
Reminds me...are you 100% sure about the holes now Etienne ? I must have that SW yoke cover repro somewhere that you could match it to...but WHERE?!?!?!
O wait....Rich made those, so he probably has the correct sizes to cut the cover and the holes ! It's probably a die...not sure...
-
Looking at those holes, I'm 99% sure they're too big...

-
Not bad Etienne ;D ;D ;D
-
I took the holes from the scan and they are 9 mm in diameter on the scan..
but yes, if rich can print it, he can also ajust the file, its not protected.
also the colors i have picked from the scan since that was my only source..
Ps, thanks for the headline Bruno !
it was an Honer to bring it back from the dark side :P
please do feel free to print it on regular paper and make a physical comparation on the actual Yoke.
let me know if there are any errors so i can adjust the file, thats easy enough 8)
-
Just got some info that the Atari logo should be white....not black... ;D ;D
-
Yeah , youre right !, i forgot to change that back :oops:
and also the text in the bottom... will correct that soon ;)
-
and soon is now ::)
