Also just realized, I need to double check that SP will have 2.25/2.75 convex molds. Right now I think they only have concave. I don't believe they have convex but it may be in the works.

While personally I do prefer convex bars on my Alice like boards, the DCS concave bars are actually pretty comfy. I got them with my Sleeper set & thought it might bother me, but it doesn't at all. Can't say this will be true for everyone, just want to put it out there.

Was there any thought to making the R3 Control legend red? As an R3 Control user I really appreciated with DSS Late Harvest took that route with the RGB mods there.

This is a good idea, I'll forward it along and see if it's possible.

By the way, for people who prefer Discord for questions or updates, you can join mine here: https://discord.com/invite/pjdyjS5

I'll be posting updates to GH first, as I have with my past projects.

Update on this, it's doable and we're making new renders to reflect the change. Thanks for your feedback.

Also, at this point I don't think we'll be adding any more accent keys. I did some research and I think it would neither help nor hurt sales numbers, but would add some cost, which I don't like.

Insanely busy this week, but I have updated renders with red R3 control (Thanks to justinhigley for suggesting it) and concave spacebars instead of convex that I'll upload post when I get some time.

Here's the new base kit render to hold you over, apologies for the extra white space.

way too many 40's with split bar layouts to name (although looking at all the bottom row layouts that omnibus supports could be a start reference), hotswap-only arisu derivatives

Do any of these layouts also use 2u shift? SP doesn't have convex bars so technically it's already supported. Adding a 2u blank feels redundant to me.

yeah, forgot about the convex bar situation. 2u shift could be used I suppose, but seeing a flipped mod-colored shift on one bar and an alpha-colored blank bar on the other is also kind of a scuffed look; I'd just end up using two split shifts to retain a uniform look. maybe it's within the realm of acceptable scuff for consumers who'd put this on a split bar board to tolerate (esp for dcs), maybe not, idk man. que sera sera

The set has no 2u shift - there is a single R4 2u key, and that's numpad 0. Which isn't super awful, since at least it's alpha-coloured. But it won't match the other shift you use.

Oop, you're right, it's a 1.75 and a 2.25 there, but no 2, since that's just for those weird 60-with-arrows layouts. Regardless, it'll work.

I remember you talked about liking Soware a lot and wanting every set plus how great DCS is so I am glad to see you did your own. Especially since I can pick one up since I wasn't in the hobby back then. GLWIC and can't wait to see this ran!

Thanks, I'm really excited to finally be able to run something Soware inspired.

DCS doesn't offer scoops. Bars and nubbins only. I prefer bars so that's what I went with.

I personally think the colours are perfect, although barred-homing keys is a turn-off for me.

As I explained above, SP doesn't offer scoops in DCS. You're welcome to lobby SP to add them.

I personally really hate that look, but if GB numbers start picking up, I can add those to something in the future. Right now, the kit for this is locked in.

I'll be posting the GB thread shortly.
