GaryMcT's 2-player generic control panel layout

Pages: << < (69/70) > >>

GaryMcT:

LizardLick small ball top on U360 good. :)  With the U360 bottom-mounted with no routing even better. :)

Going to have to order some more small ball tops.

PsychoAU:

Just found this thread, but if you want to see my panel which uses only 23.75" of usuable width, then check out my CP walkthrough video:



I fit two players, 7 buttons each, a trackball, and a spinner all in that width.  I have the Visio layout file if you want it.

Nice!

Looks like you have the benefit of not having anything in the way on the left and right side of the panel.  If I put my controls that close to the edge, I'd be hitting the edge of the panel. :(


PsychoAU:

Yes, but you also won't have a trackball in the middle, so you could move things closer together (away from the edge).  I just wanted to show that you can get creative with smaller panels and still fit everything you want without it seeming crowded or uncomfortable.

Cool. . thanks!

I think I'm almost there with the design.  The last one that I put up looks like it's nearly good.  I still hit the player two button with my right hand when playing Robotron or anything else that uses the player 2 stick with the right hand.
