Title: Need Soul Calibur Button Layout URGENT
Post by: Hellfromabove on March 13, 2003, 11:41:17 am

Hey does anyone have a button layout of SC. I finished two arcade sticks and will up the pictures once I get ahold of a camera. I am starting a new project that is based on the new SC2 game that is going to be hitting systems in Japan this month. I am going to have this arcade stick be a dual sided with the a, b, k, g start and select buttons and an Ult. 360 on each side only. It is very easy to do but I have one main problem... I need the SC button layout. If you play the arcade game you know that the button mapping is really weird like 4 buttons in a smal curve like a frown. I was wondering if anyone here had a layout of it or if someone could make me one. I am in dier (think that's how you spell it) need of it. Thanks in advance to whoever can help out. Thanx.

-See Ya!!!

EDIT: Had to edit cause I made spelling mistakes, I am so sleepy.

Accurate Button Placement
The buttons on the RedOctane Arcade Stick have been laid out exactly as they appear on the actual Namco Soul Calibur 2 arcade machines. No other controller on the market delivers as authentic a Soul Caliber experience as our arcade stick.

Hard to tell from that pic, is the layout any different than the NEO GEO control panels?

The button layout for the Soul Calibur 2 is very different from the Neo-Geo layouts. Also thanks for the pic of the the SC2 controller generic_eric but that isn't really helpful. I can't look at it right now cause I am in school and they blocked off the site. Is there a place that I can order the button layout from. If possible I need a layout that has the button layout and also the joystick layout next to it. Example:

    _________
   |                  |
   |      ___      |                      
   |     (___)    |                  x    x
   |                  |             x             x
   |_________|

I think that's how the layout is. It is almost like that except without so much of a curve. Thanx.

-See Ya!!!

Why don't you do a search for a Soul Calibur control panel overlay.  That way the layout and graphics would be authentic.  Maybe some else can give you a good resource besides Ebay.  I did a custom CP graphic so I'm afraid I can't help you much, but I know others might be able to chime in.
