Got me TE yesterday, played for a few hours and it works fine so far.
Question: anyone have an S mounting plate for the LS32 01?
Question: anyone have an S mounting plate for the LS32 01?
Here's something odd that I was hoping you guys could help out with.
I just got my TE SFIV stick this week (MarkMan, it's a thing of beauty) for PS3. I also have my old ASCII PS2 stick that I have been using with a TAC USB adaptor with no problems. When I plug in my TE AND the ASCII, my PS3 freezes. When I use just my TE, it's fine. When I use just my ASCII, it's fine too. It's when I plug in both that I run into problems. Any ideas as to what is causing this?
Thx

Woohoo! Finally got my LL order today. Ordered a JLF on 2/23, switched it to a LS-32-01 and LL threw in an orange bubbletop for my troubles. Dopeness.
Just some FYI for those putting a LS-32 into the SE stick like I did--make sure you have a really good Philips. The holes Madcatz drilled, at least in my stick, were not entirely circular and more oval so it was a real pain to get the screws in (less so when I switched to a better Philips). I actually only bothered to put 2 screws--one in the middle hole of each side. Much easier then trying the four corners considering how tough it was to get them down and it was still very snug and secure when I was done.
And make sure to take out the PCB before mounting as it's much easier to do so with it off.
Now my only beef is that I ordered my Sanwa screw-in's on 2/26 and LL isn't yet up to that date in their endless quest to fill all back-orders.
Cannot wait. Guile will be much, much less of a chore. Right now I can't even reliably whip out basic b&b 2-in-1's with him in IV--though that has more to do with the different timing in IV. I still have the timing of old school Guile, or even Remy--and it just does not translate.

All the more reason to use Akihabarashop.jp Those guys are on the ball and extremely courteous. My violet buttons are on the way and I just ordered a bat-top and start buttons. My HORI real arcade pro will soon be a light blue and violet beacon of joy.

So several days ago I received my sanwa buttons and LS-32-01 seimetsu joy stick.
When installing them onto my Se fightstick, I notice how had to remove the moutning plate adn rotate it. Furthermore, it seems only two of the four screws are useable when finally mounting it to the fighstick unit. Is this normal?

i just finished adding my art to the hrap3
This morning, not sure if they closed again yet >_< And that's an awesome design. I'm still trying to figure out what designs I should have on my stick. I want some sorta Chun Li one since it's who I main.

Not sure it's it normal, but that's how I installed it, too. I turned it horizontal and only used 2 screws.C- Warrior said:

Sorry if this has been answered already, but the thread's getting long: is there a particular brand of bat-top joystick handle that can replace the ball top on the TE Fightstick? I see several sizes online including Sanwa "adapters" for some bat tops on some stick shafts.

Sanwa LB-30-N Joystick Bat Top and Sanwa Joystick Adapter.Kaijima said:
The LB-30-N is made for the wider-shafted JLW if I'm not mistaken, but works fine with the JLF in the TE stick when you install the adapter.

That's some pretty crazy/unique artwork, what's it from? Is it original?zewone said:
Did you paint the shaft cover and dust washer?
It was originally done by Shintaro Kago. It was actually one the cover of a Vice magazine which is where I originally found out about his work._dementia said:
Yeah, I painted the shaft cover and dust washer. I also painted the red bezel. Here's a scan of the original cover art:

What's with people and Octagonal gates? If you think the stick feels American afterwards it's a purely mental thing. I used one a while back and abhored it.

Its not I want it to feel american..._dementia said:
I just can't do any type of shoto move like a hadoken or el fuerte dash consistently on this Square gate no matter how hard i try..
I then begin to flail in frustration. I think it will be easier for a former pad player to go to a octo gate then a square gate as well personally.

Thats a beautiful custom.Jables said:
Good call on the Japanese button layout despite using Happ parts. I think the Japanese layout feels more natural because fingers are different lengths. I always found the "straight six" American style uncomfortable.

My parts arrived from Akihabarashop today and I was able to finish up my second Wii stick mod. This stick has white/green Sanwa buttons I made by combining the parts of a set of both white and green buttons, using green plungers and white, erm, rims. Sanwa doesn't make this color stock and I thought it would look unique, so I cobbled them together myself.
I also put Taito sleeves on the quick disconnects to finish up the look. The one button you see that is a screw-in is such because I accidentally went too far grinding that button hole and consequently the snap-in button was a bit loose. The screw-in remedies that loose issue.
This stick has got the clear bottom I posted a ways back. I think it turned out nicely and is a nice counterpoint to the Seimitsu-outfitted Wii stick I made previously.

Wow, looks great Baron!
What are (and where did you buy) the button connectors and the nice wire? Was that stuff from Akihabara? I think I'll probably clean up my first ghetto mod I did a few months back on my SFIV stick (below) and make it professional like yours...and I'm anticipating having to do it again for the upcoming Death Smiles.
