The Streets of Rage Project


Materials
- 18mm MDF

Monitor

- 27" Acer LCD

Computer
- Intel Celeron G1610T 2.3ghz CPU
- 4GB RAM
- 120GB SSD
- AMD Radeon 5850 graphics card

Control Panel

- Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT joysticks
- Happ competition arcade buttons with D44X cherry switches (concave)
- Ipac2

Sound

- Pioneer 5.25" car speakers

Software

- Launchbox

Background

I have always wanted to build my own Arcade machine having seen the tail end of the Arcade era (1991 onwards).

Through the 90's I played mainly fighting game Arcade's such as:

- Street Fighter 2
- Mortal Kombat 1,2,3,
- Marvel vs Capcom,
- Tekken 2,
- Virtua Fighter
- King of the Fighters
- Killer Instinct

However I dabbled in other great titles such as Metal Slug, NAM 1975, Final Fight, Sega Rally, Daytona USA, etc.

Now, one of my favourite games of all time is 'Streets of Rage' made for the Sega Mega Drive. I know Streets of Rage was never an Arcade title but it can be played with Arcade controls as it's a side scrolling beat em up and also it's different, I don't recall seeing many Streets of Rage based themes. I may add other characters from other fighting games to the side art, time will tell, lot's to do before then.

I found this great site when doing research on how to build my own arcade. After reading through lots of great project build threads I was inspired the most by 'Pete's Slim Arcade' build, simply because of the design, I love the look. I hope Pete won't mind me using his plans he uploaded.

Pete's Slim Arcade Project - http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,121148.msg1284984.html#msg1284984

I will update the thread as I progress.

SOR2 is my favourite of the franchise too  :cheers:

1st - SOR2
2nd - SOR1
3rd - SOR3

Streets of Rage the Remake is fantastic, such a great project, it will definitely be on my arcade's playlist, it's a must.

No problem ;)

The arcade version of SOR2 was basically the same as the Genesis version but with all the 1ups removed and some extra guys thrown into the mix to beat you down a bit faster :p

I chose it as the fortnightly hi score comp game a few months ago actually lol

Control Panel Components

This box arrived today.



The project has begun.

I will open the box tomorrow to show what's inside as it's been a long day for me.

Great choice. I have seen lot's of Neo-Geo stand up restorations and projects but not many (if any) bartops.

Look forward to seeing some pictures.

I love Streets of Rage!  Check out the Beat Em Up/Hack N Slash gamelist in the link in my signature.  Give Violent Storm a try.  It's no SOR, but has it's own crazy vibe.

Not a huge Violent storm guy... it's not enough Street Fighter and too final fight. I dig Crime Fighters myself.

SOR2 was my all time favourite scrolling brawler.  SORR was an amazing tribute to the franchise, and like you I constantly hope Sega will do something amazing with the franchise again.

It makes me nervous though - when I see a company as great as Capcom completely bugger up Final Fight Streetwise, I think I'd rather never see SOR4 than see something as terrible as that happen.

Control Panel Components Part-2

Finally found some free time this weekend to open the delivery from Arcade World UK.





I am going for a 8 button layout so I can also play modern games like Street Fighter 4 & 5.

I will be playing a lot of 'The King of Fighters' so the top 4 buttons will be Neo Geo colours with the bottom 4 buttons coloured white.

I originally wanted Sanwa buttons but I discovered that mounting them in a 18mm MDF control panel can be tricky as Sanwa buttons are not very deep.

I still wanted decent quality buttons so went with Happ's competition buttons which will protrude a 18mm MDF control panel without issue for an easy install.



Cherry D44X switches for every button



Sanwa JLF joysticks



Ipac2

Coin Door

Time to open more parcels.



The coin door has some light scuffs and could do with a touch of paint in places but I managed to win it cheap on ebay.

I would have preferred a twin coin door but I couldnt resist the bargain.





The coin door will be for aesthetics only.

Yeah just ordered a amp and speakers ;)

Why not connect up your coin door? Makes for a cool feature and you can still have credit buttons for free play.

I'm trying to build this Arcade on a budget but if I have some spare cash I will definitely add a coin mech so the cabinet can accept coins.

I really was not going to add a coin mech but you have swayed me, just thinking about it, having a working coin mech would add to the realism.

Anything that brings nostaligia I am up for.

I was so close to buying a amp & speakers from ArcadeWorldUk, I went with a cheap 2.1 setup I found on eBay, it works great but really wishing I went with the amp and speakers, ah well.

Two 4" drivers/speakers in a bartop should be amazing!

For what it's worth - the coin novelty lasts for the first couple games for me and then it just gets in the way.

You should be able to mod something up so that when a coin is inserted, it triggers a switch and adds a credit. I can't imagine it would be too hard.

Yeah if you are not worried about coin types or whatever you can just right up a wire microswitch behind the coin entry. The coin falls through, trips the switch,  and a credit is added. You should see my half assed way of doing it on my ball buster build

There is a visceral feeling for some people (me) when coins plunk down into the coin box. For other people it just gets in the way. I have three machines they all take coins. My friends have little kids and they love shoving quarters into the machines.

Ime the same, I just like the sound and the motion of pumping coins into the machine LOL

I do have a shifted input key for inserting credits as well though for when I have no change lol

27" Monitor

I won this 27" Acer monitor on eBay for £21!

The only issue it has is that there is a small crack to the bezel seen in the bottom right hand corner, that's it! The crack will be covered up by a bezel and won't be seen.

I was planning to go for a 24" monitor but I just wanted to go a little bigger without going to 32".



I have placed the monitor next to my 22" desktop monitor for size comparison.





The all important VESA mounting points, this should make the process of mounting this monitor a lot easier.

This is a great idea, simple but effective. Struggling to find a micro switch with a long wire like the picture you uploaded unfortunately  :-[, I will keep searching.

I will definitely be doing the same Titch.

Great to see so many Streets of Rage fans!

I am in the early stages of planning my artwork/cp/marquee so I am open to opinions and advice, feel free to pitch in.

I am a beginner with Photoshop and I have never been good with art or very creative but I am going to give it my best shot.

I put in some time last night on Photoshop creating a marquee, I have come up with a quick marquee that needs more work but with time I think I can get it right, finding high quality Streets of Rage images is proving hard, loads of high res Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat images but not so much for SOR.

What I do know is that I want the marquee and control panel to be Streets of Rage based, however I want the side art to be a mix of Streets of Rage and my favourite fighting games:

- Street Fighter
- Mortal Kombat
- King of Fighters
- Killer Instinct

Only 1 or 2 characters from each game though, I don't want to over complicate the image/side art.

 :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:


The music is way ahead of it's time, it still sounds great today and better then any game music produced today  8)

I originally wanted to go for some 5.25" drivers but a great deal came up on eBay for a Logitech x-230 speaker set - £15 so I grabbed it.

I tested it yesterday night and it sounds great, more than enough for a arcade cabinet and the sub sounds great on SOR, I will post a video up soon, hopefully my phone can capture the audio well.

I regret not getting some 5.25" speakers and a amp, I will have to settle with the Logitech x-230 for now, mounting 5.25" speakers and a amp sure would have been easier than the Logitech setup.

I will take your advice and upload a clip of the  'Never Return Alive' track on the Logitech x-230 setup to see what you guys think.

PS to everyone, please feel free to chip in with ideas and thoughts as nothing is set in stone with my build.

I'm hoping to use your help to make this cabinet the best it can be.

There are lots of good art guys on here.

Have you looked at streets of rage online? They used to have loads of good fan art.

Actually there was a Arcade version of Streets of Rage ;)

Anyways Hi Five my man!
I am also a die hard SOR lover (2 being my fave game ever!)

I look forward to seeing this come alive!

Same here... 2 was the best! Although I really really really like the Streets of Rage Remake.

Personally I think the first one was the best but I am glad to see someone making a cabinet on this! I remember playing for over an hour the first time and picking the wrong answer on the last level. FACEPALM....

Who wanted to be the right hand man lol

Also there was a project that was being worked on sadly it was cancelled



Intrested in seeing your design I came across one online but to me this one looks a little busy

Oh don't get me wrong I probably have more hours in Streets of Rage than the sequel. I got it packaged with my Sega CD and it was the only game worth playing nonstop from that system.

Here is another Streets of Rage sequel that looks a bit rough but at least it's a 2D side scroller. I can't ever get behind a 3D Streets of Rage, 2D for life!

I have a feeling you are too new to be aware of his previous commissioned pieces.....

On the modern SOR remake topic, The TakeOver on steam is pretty damn good, but is an early access game and the author didn't deliver his previous kick starter game.  Personally I think it had a lot to do with the publisher he brought on board, but that's a discussion for another thread.

I was thinking earlier of a idea for side art for you. Not sure what you think but thought I would run it past you.

Imagine the underground train level on MK3 with the street above it that you could uppercut your opponent through.

You could have Axel delivering a grand upper to a MK character sending him up to the street while a street fighter character is taking on someone else up top.

You get the idea anyways.

Could also do something similar with the construction site level from SOR3.

That would be a great looking piece of sideart! I would love to do something like that.

The problem is finding High resolution Streets of Rage images, they are pretty much non existent.

I can find images large enough for a marquee or control panel, but none large enough for side art.

I have two options I believe, pay a artist to do some high resolution art for me, or wait until SORonline is back up and running as I believe they have lots of high resolution images there.

I have been messing around in photoshop today (2-3hrs), just getting a feel for the software and I came up with the following draft that is by no means anywhere near finished.

The picture of Axel still has a watermark on it! I have asked the artist on Deviantart if I could use his/her artwork, waiting for a reply.

Don't forget to google Bare Knuckle... I googled Bare Knuckle Arcade Wallpaper and a few hi res pretty cool images popped up. Also search Streets of Rage Wallpaper. Usually desktop wallpaper is hires. There are some pretty cool pieces of art out there..


You could also hire Snaake... that man can totally create something out of thin air as well.

Food for thought.

I like the idea of the city back drop for the marquee but I would loose the little enemies.
 
Make the logo bigger and try just using the top half of Axel & Blaze see how that looks.

Great theme for a cab.

Have you considered using a larger screen and orientating it vertically in the cab thus keeping the form-factor of a traditional arcade cab and also having the ability to have vertical games in the correct screen size whilst also being able to play horizontal games??

I have definitely thought about it but my need to play modern fighting games which use 16:9 stopped me from going ahead with that idea.

If it was not for wanting to play the modern fighting games then I would have gone with the vertical screen like you suggested for it's obvious benefits.

Made a few adjustments to the marquee following the suggestions.

1. Increased size of the 'Streets of Rage' logo
2. Removed small stage bosses
3. Added Adam!

Let me know what you think.



PS. Received some Photoshop tips from a good friend so I will be tackling the Control panel soon.  :)

Thanks mafiafan123.

I totally agree, that cab looks too busy for me, especially the front of the cab.

I plan to keep the front of my cabinet simple, simple marquee, simple control panel, a plain black lower panel with the addition of a silver chequered kick plate like edekoning's great looking Magneto cab.

Defo getting there, think it needs a little more work tho....

Maybe Mr X looking over the SOR logo like he does in the intro to SOR2?

Think you should use a different image of Axel also it doesn't quite fit in my mind, and maybe make blaze bigger.

To me it's too Anime... I would cut the characters out completely. Revisit it of course for the control panel or side art. But with Marquees (and art) less is more. I would like to see the city background and the logo. Get creative with the side art or the control panel.

I agree with the others the Anime thing does not really fit with the grizzly ness of SOR.
Though I know its hardx to find traditional style high res images!

But try something like this, I just knocked it together in 5 mins so its rough....

Fans, USB Front Input, Power Extension

All suggestions taken onboard  :), I will make some adjustments to the marquee when I get some spare time. I'm a anime fan, hence the anime like characters but I will keep working at it.

I received some more parts for the build.



I purchased two large 140mm fans for cooling the cabinet, I plan to mount one at the top of the cabinet and one at the bottom.



Twin USB faceplate for the front of the cabinet.



8-way surge protected power strip.

I might go ahead with the anime theme but I am willing to try other looks like suggested, I don't want to be narrow minded with my approach.

Lot's of time before I print my artwork so will try lots of different looks.

8 way leads a bit excessive aint it? LOL

Fans are good but you may find twin 140mm a bit noisy!
I would test it before installing them.
I know they say silent run but they still make noise lol

As for the Anime thing, its your cab so go with what you feel dude.
But I would keep it all anime and not mix it with the 16bit stuff as it will look odd.

Will test them on my PC over the next few days to see how loud they are. Hopefully they are quiet.

I like Titchgamer's mockup personally.

Anyway, I run them fans in a cabinet (not a arcade) just a cupboard and they sound like a whirlwind when they get going. I don't think they are a bad fan but if you're after silent then these are not that.

gl with the build.
I'm on my last life, best not try anything stupid

So far so good.

For future ref your best cutting both together so they are identical.
Also something to consider when you do controls, your CP comes to quite a sharp point.
1) that could hurt so make sure you round them edges ;)
2) dont mount the controls to near the front else they wont have enough depth.

Any suggestions for cabinet width?

It's a 2-player cab and the monitor is 65cm in width so that is the smallest it can be.

I was thinking 70-75cm wide.

Sounds about right.  My cab came out to 32" to allow enough room for the monitor to rotate.  I think it would look better if it were only 28" wide, which comes out to 71cm.

28" is about as wide as it gets if you plan on getting it through a doorway.

I read somewhere (found it: http://www.arcadecab.com/CabinetPlans2/CabinetPlans2_Cutting_Side_Two.html) that suggested doing a rough cut of side two and then using a router to make it identical to side one. Any opinions on the effectiveness of that technique?

That's how I did the sides for my Half-Shell cabinet. Just make sure your boards are very tightly clamped together so the boards don't slip (it happened to me once or twice.) A flush trim bit will make a perfect duplicate (except for inside corners.)

For future ref your best cutting both together so they are identical.

I read somewhere (found it: http://www.arcadecab.com/CabinetPlans2/CabinetPlans2_Cutting_Side_Two.html) that suggested doing a rough cut of side two and then using a router to make it identical to side one. Any opinions on the effectiveness of that technique?


Like Rom shark says that will work fine but you have to be careful they dont move :p

Thanks, fellas.

Romshark, your method of using the flush trim router bit for both sides was interesting. I might try that.

I screwed the sides of mine together, then used the flush bit.  It's only a few small holes to patch.

28" is about as wide as it gets if you plan on getting it through a doorway.
It's a slim cab.  Just turn it sideways.
.....unless of course it has an aircraft carrier hanging off the front.

Yes your right. My cab is 75cm wide but only 60cm deep so sideways it fits through a standard size door fine.

Tested this last night.

Thanks Badmouth.

PS. No aircraft carrier hanging off the front.  :)

That's a good idea. Some Bondo is a small price to pay for a perfect cut. I'll remember that on my next project.

Great idea. If finishing with laminate, you probably wouldn't need to do more than sand the holes smooth.

Making the Control Panel

Started work on the control panel today.





So far so good.



Button fitting test.



I like the feel of the Happ competition buttons.

I will be cutting slots in the side panels and control panel for the t-moulding next, this will be done next weekend.

Hopefully I will also be able to cut and fit some more panels also (front, top & back).

Bracing

I have made a small amount of progression with the build.

The lower compartment will be for the power strip and subwoofer. The upper compartment will be for the PC.



Next I positioned the monitor to determine the correct height to mount it.





I plan to start painting the panels this weekend.

Any tips for paint prep?

I was planning to sand the mdf then prime, sand again then paint.

Is that particle board or MDF? I can give you tips on particle board if you were unfortunate enough to have to use it. I made that mistake :-(

If you're looking for a mirror finish, check out Ond's videos:

To get is super smooth, I use an oil-based primer and paint, sanding with finer paper between each coat. Using oil products takes longer though since the dry time takes forever.

Big monitors are impressive at a distance, but for actual play isn't it optimal to have the whole screen fit within your field of view? With your head only an arm's length from the screen, 27" is huge. I'm going with a 24" in mine. I don't want to have to turn my head to look across the screen.

(Also, a 24" 16:9 ends up just a touch taller than a 19" 4:3. 19" was a fairly common monitor size for classic arcade games as far as I can tell.)

I think what Jim might be alluding to is the fact that the cabinet size makes that monitor look small. In a lot of ways, you would have been better served designing the cabinet around the monitor and not vice versa.

The monitor is 65cm wide, the arcade cabinet is 70cm wide.

I am happy with it and looks fine to me. Let's just wait and see what it looks like once it's together.  :)

I did consider vinyl wrapping as I have seen that a few people have had great success with it, however I already had some oil primer and paint so went with that option.

Cheers for the suggestion.

Each to their own, if you are happy with 24" then go for it  :), I understand your logic and it makes sense.

I wanted something bigger then 24" but smaller than 32"

27" it is for me. :)

I think the issue is that the monitor is just sitting on a desk with 1 side of the machine propped up and it appears that the desk is the width of the cab.

Ah I see, that would make sense Malenko.

The cabinet definitely will not be the size of the table.

70cm width.

Good observation.

My apologies N-J, I was unclear. I didn't mean that 27" was too big. I meant that it was plenty big enough, and certainly not small enough to be "cheap." The "turn my head" bit was in contrast to the really big screens I've seen used by some.

Keep in mind that if the primer/paint is gumming up on your sandpaper, it isn't dry. Patience is key with oil-based products.

I have based my button positioning on the X-Arcade dual-stick. I play on a X-Arcade dual-stick frequently and find it very comfortable having space to rest my wrist and forearm.



Ignoring the two lower offset buttons, you can see that the stick has plenty of space between the buttons and the bottom of the control panel.

I measured the distance between the bottom 3 buttons and the bottom of the control panel and copied this when making my control panel.

I messed up with the admin buttons, got my measurements wrong.

They are very close to the edge, closer then I would like, however as the mdf is 18mm the structure around the button is still very strong.

I'm going to roll with it and see how it goes.

It's not that hard to cut a plug for the hole, fill in the gaps with sawdust & wood glue mixture, then redrill them where you want.
MDF is basically sawdust and glue anyway.

(hole all the way to the right was filled in and redrilled lower.....it was actually correct the first time, but that's beside the point  :-[ )


EDIT:
Since you have the player start buttons close to where I do, here is mine for reference:
(not that it's standard or anything)

Since your cabinet isn't as wide, you might consider arranging them something more like this, but up higher inline with the select button:

Nigel... you don't have to sand MDF. I would use a high quality primer and top coat. Thats all you need brother.

Applied primer to the cabinet.





After letting the primer dry I began painting with a oil based paint.









The next day I worked on the front kick panel, routing a space for the coin door.

This router is slowly becoming my favourite power tool thanks to this site, I had never even heard of a router before arcadecontrols.com





Electronics finally being installed.

So originally I had decided to go with a 2.1 PC speaker setup, however I went cold on this idea and purchased some 5.25 drivers with an amplifier instead.

On the weekend I began working on the speaker panel.




I marked the area to be routed.



The end result.



Then chamfered the edge.



Saw dust from the chamfering.



I tackled mounting the Sanwa JLF joysitcks next.

I had to dismantle the joystick so that I could use the mounting plate as a template.



Using the router I cut out a square for the joystick to sit in to.

Next I needed to route out some of the control panel to allow the metal mounting plate to sit just below the surface.



The end result.

Hopefully now with 2mm Plexiglass on top of the control panel surface I should get the correct mounting height for a Sanwa JLF joystick.

Cabinet with the control panel in place and monitor mounted.



Speaker panel and admin button panel mounted.





Applied primer to the new panels. (Excuse the front door panel, going to re-do it all as i'm not happy with it).

Are you wearing a good dust mask or respirator? That MDF dust is toxic.

You are making good progress.

Thanks Ian & Mike A.

Mike A, I'm wearing a dust mask when cutting the MDF, thanks all the same for the advice.

I didn't know that MDF dust was toxic prior to reading through ArcadeControls.com threads.  :-\

I'm anxiously watching this project! Streets of Rage (specifically 2) is my favorite! I was looking into doing similar artwork on my next project. Grats on a good choice
First Build: Multicade
Second Build: Nintendo Bartop

Looking great man, PLEASE tell me you are going with hidden hinges on that front panel. I literally cringed when I saw those 3 gate hinges.....

Don't worry the gate hinges will be removed soon.  :)

Speakers fitted.



Amplifier arrived.





Amplifier fitted to the cabinet, sounds great too.



Time to work on the Control Panel Polycarbonate sheet.



I created a template Control Panel so that I could sandwhich the Polycarbonate between the real control panel and the template in preparation for cutting.



Polycarbonate placed between the real CP and template CP to prevent the sheet from flexing while I drill out the button holes.

From what I have read the flexing of plexi/lexan/polycarbonate when cutting or drilling is what causes the material to crack.



Holes drilled through the Polycarbonate.



Just need to drill out the joystick holes now.



The end result. The angles at the bottom of the CP was cut with a jigsaw using a plastic cutting blade.



Spray painted the Control Panel black, I noticed that most real arcade machines have a simple Control Panel, so I followed suit.




Nice shiny control panel.





Added buttons and ball tops.



Ipac2 mounted and ready for wiring.

Photobucket did that to everyone. Its why everyone says to host the images on this website.
If you're replying to a troll you are part of the problem.
I also need to follow this advice. Ignore or report, don't reply.

The pictures are back though. With a nice Photobucket water mark. I hope no-one paid 400 dollar for that.
