wolfy62 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 The ROMS are available for sale HERE This is about the boxes not the game itself. A lot of us have the game and instructions,we just want the finishing touch! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Steve Jones Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) Thinking of making myself one for Hockey since apparently nobody else is going to, currently researching printers that can print on heavy cardstock, I know they will not be as good as having them printed professionally but if I am happy with results I may print more for AA members, will update in a couple of weeks.

m-crew Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 If anyone that has produced boxes for homebrews could share the template with us that would be much appreciated.. Thanks in Advance.. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Steve Jones Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 This is one I made myself for Robot Rubble, Though I think I need to use a higher resolution, its not quite as sharp as I would like, Im hoping to add the internal cart retention stuff too, I have some others I have bought to use as a template for that, I think Alexs had it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, thanks for sharing. Im not sure how and what is needed for making and printing of boxes. I have contacts in the graphic arts industry that have contacts for their printing and making of boxes.. If I had the pdf or template I would pass to them to see what it would cost to produce.. Going out to Party with Judas Priest tonight so I hope we can get something official on these boxes..

+Steve Jones Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) Sure if you want to ask them, Im not looking to spend a ton of money for printing, aside from the $300 printer Im looking at. I took that Robot Rubble file and a few others I made to a printing place last year and had them printed, still on a computer printer albeit a huge one, the thickest stock they had still isnt as thick as what real game boxes are printed on. I will send you the file when I get home, that pic (from my phone) is super fuzzy, the original is way better than that.

Eric7100 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) I love how no reasons are given. I hope efforts aren't being put into other projects, instead of these, which we would rather have.

GroovyBee Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I hope efforts aren't being put into other projects, instead of these, which we would rather have. Rev is allowed to pick and chose what projects he spends his time and money on. If he no longer wishes to go ahead with this project then you either live with that or you find an alternative solution. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers G Here`s the full resolution to try printing, if they print on 13x9 stock with the image as close to the left as possible we can cut the card retention stuff from the blank space left on the right side. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Steve Jones Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 He doesn't seem to want to, I have asked him a couple of times, he never really replies. He never actually designed one for Hockey yet anyway. The design will be the easy part, fairly routine photoshop job, printing seems trickier.

+Steve Jones Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Thanks, Mark, that is what I based it on, with a screenshot from the manual too. Finished a first attempt, will upload shortly if anyone else wants to try printing in the meantime, I won't be able to for at least a couple more weeks. Can't upload from work, maybe file too big, will try later from home. If you're going to try making boxes, I'd be happy to provide the art I did for the box mockup on my website. Maybe more. PM me.

mthompson Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Thanks, Mark, that is what I based it on, with a screenshot from the manual too. OK, if you've got a PDF of the manual, you can get high resolution versions of the cover text. Here's a game screen with a "Super Pro Blue" TV border and without the arrows, in case it's useful.

+Steve Jones Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) oh that's better than the scan of the manual I used, I will put it in, thanks. I don't have a pdf, I just used that front cover pic you had online, if you want to give me a pdf I think it will improve the resolution of the box design.
