I have looked in the repository, but couldn't find anything.

Is there any decent "Rocky Horror" artwork available anywhere?

Cheers.

there's an incredible dx somewhere

No, you won't find the Rocky Horror flyer at the Repository, I've just checked my hard drive and couldn't find it, I must have deleted it after finishing the DX's.

The one I had came from Pook, I think he's the only person to have a copy, though it's not a very good flyer tbh, it's big, but the quality is poor, with the colours being way off what the actual machine would have looked like, if you locate the original DX by Harvey, (which was based on the flyer but stretched to a wide format), you'll see what I'm getting at!

I've just been digging through my psd files for Rocky Horror, and found one that contained a layered section from the original flyer, I've pasted it above my redrawn version, as you can see if you decide to do a full screen version of it, and get hold of the complete flyer from Pook that it's going to be a big job, the flyer itself is just not good enough to use for anything other than a base to work from.

Thanks guys.

Yeah, there's a few versions out there, but there doesn't seem to be a fullscreen version available.

Mike, I am amazed that your versions are redrawn.
I have been playing your version for weeks now.
Excellent work.

The only reason that I want to do a fullscreenDX for it is that it will eventually be played through my MAME CAB (which after months of planning, I started building today ), and although it will have a very large monitor, I would still like to make it as easy to see as possible.

I'll see if I can get a copy of the flyer from Pook, and start from there.

Cheers.

Well, you're more than welcome to have bitmap copies of the artwork if you want them, though going off your last DX I think you'd like to have a go yourself from scratch, but if you are interested just let me know.

[Smiley]

Bitmaps of your artwork would be most welcome, thanks.
And if I can get a hold of the flyer from Pook as well, it will give me a good headstart.

Thanks for that. :eusa_dan:

Okay, I've gone one better and zipped up a psd file, I've just included the top and bottom glass, removed the background and cabinet.

The top and bottom glass are in two seperate layer sets, and within each set are the layered components of the glasses so you can either flatten them or leave them layered for easier lamping.

Have fun!

Seeing as how my old Cluedo SWP looks like it isn't going to work [I'll take it entirely to bits, rebuild it, and then nothing more], I'll have a spare cabinet with a 14" ish monitor. I'm looking to do a Mame project too....will it be possible to use the monitor [I think it is branded Hantarex?] with a PC, using some kind of VGA port adaptor?

Also, as it has a working coin mech + sorter, is there a kit anyone knows of to use those from a normal PC motherboard?
