Title: Atari System 1 Sidearts - new version
Post by: Wurstkopp on May 07, 2015, 10:22:08 AM: I built new sidearts for System 1 cabinets, the older ones were crap (see the pic and compare all the errors!). The new ones should fit 100%, I scanned a complete side of an original. ;)

Download the new ones (left + right sides) in 300 dpi here:

by the way, this is so simple art, you should make it in vectors, not raster (assuming it is as you state "300 DPI")

Post by: Wurstkopp on May 07, 2015, 11:59:15 AM: It's a Zip-file with 2 Pdfs, works fine here.

I'm not into Illustrator, only Photoshop. Feel free to modify it. :)

All the logos I found on the net are different.

Post by: Wurstkopp on May 08, 2015, 04:25:45 PM: I used "SF Atarian System", not a 100% match, but pretty close. Maybe "whatthefont" can help?

Finally this has been done, the old version was just a joke and unusable if you ask me.
Very well done, Sir.

Schön dass das auch mal wer erledigt hat, das war ja echt ein Witz. Ich hab das ja oft gesehen im Internet da ich selber 2 Sys1 habe aber das war ja unbrauchbar selbst wenn man beide Augen und die Hühneraugen dazu zudrückt.

Ist das abfallend platziert? Mit den Outlines ist das ja immer so eine Sache. Deswegen mache ich das jetzt anders (vorallem auch für Sidepanel-Frästeile), ich lege den Automaten auf eine Papierfläche, zeichne ihn ohne T-Molding nach, lasse das scannen, importiere es ins Solidworks und gebe dann ein Kernmaß ein. Auf die Art bekomme ich 100% akurate Formen/Outlines. Ich kann mit solchen Outlines gerne aushelfen.
Hier ist ein Seitenteil dass mittels dieser Technik entstanden ist:
