Who posted the Star Wars Yoke Overlay on the Matrix Reloaded vector library?

I LUB YOU, MAN!!!!

It's well done and it's just what my Star Wars/1UP dualstrike hack needed! I want to thank all the guys that have gone so far with this vector artwork. You've taken this project on like a rabid dog!!! Someone mentions some artwork and a week later it shows up!!! You guys rock!!!!

Group hug!

I believe Tim of CAGA (http://www.arcadecollecting.com/caga/) did that one.  He, as I understand, did most if not all the stuff on CAGA, which has been around for quite some time.  If you compare the vector library to CAGA, you'll see more a few items came from there.  I don't know who uploaded them, let's hope he got Tim's permission and that he doesn't mind.

Does anyone happen to know where I can find the "Mametrix" stuff mentioned above?

I am working on a Matrix Themed cabinet, and I'd love to take a look at the vector files.

Thanks Zorg =) Awesome site there.

I guess I misunderstood the original post. . . . I thought there was "Mametrix" Vector files running around. Maybe the stuff from this machine: http://www.the-mametrix.com/index2.htm

Since I know nothing about Illustrator, I guess its time for me to see if I can create Matrix code in Photoshop, and hope that the printers can make it look okay.  /gulp

Thanks again for the site, I'm sure I'll use it plenty in the future.

I'm sure you'll be abble to find on the net some "matrix code" floatting around, in a resolution suficient for your purpose.

regarding Illustrator, it's not so hard to use, there are really good tutorials on the web. second if your used to work with photoshop, PS is perfectly able to import he illustrator files, you will just loose the availability to scale it as you want, as PS convert it to bitmap.
