Title: Control Panel for SSFIV:AE
Post by: Generic Eric on December 29, 2013, 09:41:42 pm
Man...I thought 7 buttons was the future.  That doesn't work well at all for SSFIV:AE.  Can someone post pics of their control panel they use for Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition?

This game works well on my PC, so I could use some help.

Sorry what's the issue? SF4 is 6 buttons so im not sure what's the matter?

LP MP HP
LK MK HK

3k/3p are completely unnecessary, just learn to hit 3 buttons at once its not hard.

All the currently available PC fighters work with 6 buttons.
The extra buttons just post combos of the core 6.
I only ever map the main ones because it's more true to arcade gameplay.
Some require you to map 8 before allowing you to save your control mappings though, which is a slight PITA.

If building a cab specifically for PC fighters, I'd go with 8 and use an interface that shows up as an xbox 360 controller.
IMO, it's the only way to guarantee compatibility.
I don't really like the look of 8 buttons, but it would be more future-proof.  I'd definitely make the last two black or a color that blends into the background, with the core six a bright color that stands out.

But did you hang your own TV?

I was hung up on the shortcut buttons.  Thanks all
