Oh. screw that crap I want legit so ware.
Looks so much better than MD's, of course I think CC is closer to OG SoWare than N9.
Another possibility is doing the CMYK mods in CC and running that with the Alphas. Since a **** ton of people bought Hyperfuse, if someone wanted to do SoWare instead, they'd only really have to swap the Alphas. That restricts the number of boards you could use the set on, but makes for a cheaper set. Just an idea.
Keep in mind, guys. The current mockup for the alpha color is BEIGE (NOT GRAY). We actually like how the beige looks with the blue legends.
Of course, we are open to discussion :)

gross
just one question is when this will happen and how long last for?
you'll need another name if you're going with beige
I think CC is closer to OG SoWare than N9.
I look forward to this byker and Vesper.
No doubt you have my 100% support :)

Then why are you here? Not like this is legit soware either, what with it's beige caps.
I like how this is claimed to be real soware in two other places and here? "Oh we're open to doing original soware" If it's original soware, you don't need to be sold on it, it should be that way already.
EDIT: this isn't to say this is a bad set or whatever; it's actually kinda handsome in it's own way, but this isn't much closer to soware than MD's skolch (dolware?) is. Maybe call it beiware if you keep colors as they are.

This is simply inspired by SoWaRe, as GMK simply does not have the exact same colours of the original, so I'd say a beige or light Grey (I prefer light Grey) will have to be a suitable alternative.

That's great and fine. Don't call it and sell it as "real soware" if it's not. It'd be like if the classic beige set suddenly got gray alphas, but was still being claimed to be classic beige because it was inspired by classic beige.
Again, nice set. Still not soware, stop trying to hijack and sabotage other buys calling this real soware.

We just finished criticizing Massdrop's set because it was true SoWaRe and everyone wanted a legit replica, then this IC comes out and isn't a replica. Why is it called SoWaRe?
We originally wanted to start the interest check with two final mockups, one inspired set (beige), one replica set (grey). The only reason that we started the interest check before we have final mockups is to let people know our intentions of running it, as there is a massdrop group buy for a similar set. If poeple were buying that, then we wouldn't run this. However, from interest so far, it looks like people want a GMK Soware run by geekhackers. The other benefit of starting it early is that we can get feedback on what everyone wants to see in this set. And if you read the interest check, we aren't saying this is a beige set, it could be if people like it, or it could be replica soware, but unfortunately that is all we have the mockup for right now.
All we ask is that you let us know via the google form what you would prefer, so that we can change this set to best fit GH's wants!
I didn't read the OP, but I'm in.
After staring at my Wyse caps, Dolch caps, and pic of gmk colors, I think that 2B might be the best choice for mods and maybe 2M for alphas. GMK doesn't appear to have much in the way of light greys.
I apologize for misunderstanding your response.

Lol wat?
How many times did I say I liked the set? And exactly where in the op does it say anyone but me can say what they think about beige vs gray?
And either way rgb doesn't make soware.

Uh. These IC are usually a place to input your criticism so when it goes production a good percentage of people are happy. Most OPs encourage it. If not, they'd try to run the GB already.
After staring at my Wyse caps, Dolch caps, and pic of gmk colors, I think that 2B might be the best choice for mods and maybe 2M for alphas. GMK doesn't appear to have much in the way of light greys.
From what I can tell, CC for the modifiers and 2M for the alphas might be the closes match. This is pure speculation though... :blank:
I have a soware set and can tell you it uses the SP colors BBQ for the legends on the mods and BBJ for the legends on the alphas. GMK doesn't have colors like that so this would indeed be an "inspired" set if it uses UN6037. Nothing wrong with that, but UN6037 has much more green in it than those SP colors. The render looks awesome, but I don't think it accurately depicts UN6037. Even so, I still think this set would look good. I'm interested in seeing where it goes.
I didn't read the OP, but I'm in.
I'd be in for light grey. Keepin it OG.
Just spent some time comparing the colours, so we can hopefully end the discussion on UN6037 being too different for SoWaRe.

Hmm I just remembered that GMK Hyperfuse also uses UN6037 on CC for the mods. I haven't seen a picture of that set yet, but they should look almost exactly like the soware mods given how closely UN6037 mimics BBQ.
Another possibility is doing the RGBY mods in CC and running that with the Alphas. Since a **** ton of people bought Hyperfuse, if someone wanted to do SoWare instead, they'd only really have to swap the Alphas. That restricts the number of boards you could use the set on, but makes for a cheaper set. Just an idea.

U9 is light grey?? or other is light grey??
which one is the light grey? :-X :-X :-X :-X
Another +1 for, if you're going to call it SoWaRe to use the right colors...
No problem w/ the colors you selected...(I wouldn't get it with beige not that my opinion should matter) but don't call it SoWaRe...call it something else..
Render looks amazing with beige so that's what I voted for, it reminds me of a PS1 controller. I hope there can be a second 2.25" shift included or in a kit so FC660 owners wouldn't have to buy two full sets :'(Show Image(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/PSone-Console-Set-NoLCD.jpg)

Note that GMK renders are notoriously colour-inaccurate. The colours in the render do not reflect what the set would actually look like.
Everybody seems to be getting pretty worked up over this. I think both options, replica and inspired, look great and would consider buying either.
Why is everyone getting so bent out of shape over the matter though? Was SoWaRe some sort of iconic set? If so why are you guys getting so agitated? If you don't own one of the original sets, this set won't be the original either. If it's purism to keep the name of a colour set true to its meaning within the community I get it, but I don't see why anyone would be getting antsy about a similar set being made with beige in the place of grey.
Am I missing something? Was SoWaRe a prestigious set?

The community takes its colorways seriously. There are people out there that have spent a lot of time and effort developing their own colorways such as Matteo and Bunny. There is sort of a code of respect that says first of all you should respect the original designers wishes surrounding the sets and do not tamper with other people's designs.
SoWaRe is pretty close to legendary as it is a relatively old set and there is not much of it around
I'm fairly new though so I might miss out on some other reasons though
I'm definitely a fan of the beige. If the gray looks anything like the version on MD, that would be unfortunate.
I'm also not a big fan of the icons. Would prefer old school text, or text + icons.
Yeah I know about the passion for design around here. Just wasn't sure why everyone was getting so intense about this set in particular.
I can see it though, it's a damn nice set and I want some of it too (SoWaRe that is). Will be interested to see how this plan turns out.
Thank you everyone for you interest so far. We currently have had 110 people submit their interest via the google form. Although we are not replying to everyone individually, VesperSAINT and I have a list of everyone's concerns or thoughts and we will go through them before any final mockups are made.Seems like things are moving. Just hope that it can stay as OG as possible(I'm aware things will be a little different with GMK of course). If want to do something different (color), as well just name it something else since it's not exactly a replica in that case. Just my 2 cent.

DCS has just kinda been there throughout. Much maligned ("Cherry or BUST!"), it's been the default for all small scale or low cost productions.
I guess I left it out because DCS usually isn't looked at as a selling point of a set. Sooo, yeah I'm claiming Artistic license! :rolleyes:

There's really no reason GMK caps need to cost what they cost, other than the fact that they're being made in EU instead of Asia. That is to say, it's totally possible for JT caps to be just as good for much less money.

AFAIK GMK can do pad-printing, but not custom doubleshot legends.
If SP would be able to make thick Cherry profile keys we would be in business too.
Thick keys, custom legends and much more colors. GMK would probably disappear from the custom scene overnight.
Quality control is on of the main differences between an excellent product and an ok product.If SP would be able to make thick Cherry profile keys we would be in business too.
Thick keys, custom legends and much more colors. GMK would probably disappear from the custom scene overnight.
I used to like SP a lot, but I started hating their keycaps now
GMK also has consistency, SP just randomly chooses font sizes, font weights with every keycap, they have no standard at all
Check their 2u, 1.75u shifts for example, all have different sizing, only the Dolch set has consistent shift sizing, while on the Dolch set the 1.75 Control keycap uses a much smaller font for some reason, this is just easily noticeable stuff, apart from this, their SA "Enter" font is much thinner than their regular SA font-weight for example, the sets are filled with issues like these
I had like 10 DSA sets, but I couldn't gather 1 consistent set to support my layout using them, while with GMK's, it's possible with just Dolch+CMYW+1-2 Extras
TL;DR: screw SP for screwing with fonts
Maybe JTKeycaps could end GMK's reign, but on the other hand, it seems GMK has some things brewing too

Repping that soware badge of honour. :)
Anyways, what is the goal for the launch time? I hope not too soon, Classic beige is going to empty my wallet a bit + many of the wonderful things coming into the works around GH..

Probably won't be any time soon. If you're worried about Classic Beige, I wouldn't worry at all :D
..... Who knew that purchasing keycaps could be such an emotional roller coaster?!?!?!
So you bannering it because we're going with SoWaRe replica (which the beige is not)?+1 on JT
GMK SoWaRe replica...in
Would love to see if JT can do this...
I bring input from OTD
Rough translation incoming
"I think GMK SoWaRe goes against the original spirit. While this iteration of SoWaRe being GMK is a problem in itself, the original SoWaRe was based off Wyse sets, and should not use cherry legends at all."
I don't think he's pleased with this.
I'd much prefer an SP DCS version with correct colors and legend sizes for authenticity's sake.
I will not buy a GMK SoWaRe.

But lets wait and see how the Debut set is first.
I'd prefer a GMK SoWare with Cherry legends.
If this is going to be made by SP again then I will be sitting this one out.
Seen it, touched it. Feels pretty good overall. But it was a sample set, so can't really say much yet.So you bannering it because we're going with SoWaRe replica (which the beige is not)?+1 on JT

Please keep in mind, this is an INTEREST CHECK. NOT A GROUP BUY.
There is nothing in motion right now except just gathering interest.
There is no guarantee this will happen, or not happen, for a long time from now.
THIS GB WILL NEVER HAPPEN WITHOUT THE BLESSING/CONSENT OF THE ORIGINAL MAKERS.
If they do not want this to happen, a REPLICA will not happen from us. Period.
However, this does not mean something else inspired, or just something different, might not happen.
Please also note, in the case this set ENDS UP NOT BEING A REPLICA, IT WILL NOT BE CALLED SOWARE.
We have no plans on doing SP at this point in time.
We really do appreciate the feedback and interest. Thank you ~

Can someone link me to some history on the original SoWaRe set? I know nothing about it, and I'm quite interested.http://keypuller.com/soware/
Can someone link me to some history on the original SoWaRe set? I know nothing about it, and I'm quite interested.Long story short, it was intended to be a Wyse replica set. Somewhere along the way legend colors were chosen incorrectly and SoWaRe was born. Now, this is moslty heresay from some respectable members, but I trust it is correct. It explains many of the inconsistencies within the set.
Gmk mockups are to different from what the set will actually look like. Can you post some pictures of the original set?(http://i.imgur.com/CQGr0vS.jpg)
will the legend color made in standard gmk color or custom color?
This is one of the reasons I hope JT will be considered, if possible.will the legend color made in standard gmk color or custom color?
I assume only stock colors will be used because MOQ for custom colors is too high.

pls never bars
I'd rather get my set of JT caps and make a judgement on their quality before we decide to have JT manufacture them.I've stated before, of course I'd like to get my JT set before forming if they are what I'd like. But as is and with everything we've seen, I'm leaning towards them. But, if anything should change and JTK turns out to be lower quality or something, then I'll have a different opinion.

IMO, bars/scoops should be extras as in, if you're doing scoops, bars should be extras. It is so critical to the feel of the keyboard and they're keys you can't get around...
The cost of two 1u keys should be 1$ eachAh, so you're fine with comping it for my set? That's nice of you :)pls never bars

Haha, you do realize you're in the minority, right? A minority, yet a very, very vocal minority. I'd be down if you were serious. That would be like what? $2 x 2, $4?

Who is in the minority? The people that prefer bars? I think you'd be wrong in that...Most normal users I've had try my old cherry keyboards don't like the scoops at all. Why would they? It is completely different than the keyboards they use today...instead if you're slightly off center you feel the key in an oddball way...
It is like saying most users prefer 55g Topre....People on here will gush about them but the fact is, 45g is far more popular...that's not opinion, that is fact.

then again so is gmk
It's been so long since I've used bars that I don't even know what they feel like anymore...no bueno
The argument that the average person prefers bars, due to the mere-exposure effect, should not and does not concern the keyboard enthusiast community at all.
I would argue that their opinions and thoughts are of zero value, due to the fact that they are:
1) Not part of the keyboard enthusiast community.
2) Not going to shell out $100+ for a keyset, specifically, this keyset.
If you want to push the argument further, I would like to bring up the question:
Why do you even care why the masses like bars? Like I mentioned already, that is merely due to the mere-exposure effect, since most OEM computer manufacturers have included bars on the keyboards bundled with their computers.
Why does it matter that the masses like bars; people here are enthusiasts, can think for themselves, and have most likely already formed their own opinions through experience (and owning a bunch of different keyboards).
I would prefer if people quit using the preference of the masses as an argument, because it is completely irrelevant.
Our community is the one that will buy this keyset, and the majority of the community (read: community, not some average joe using his office's Dell keyboard with bars) prefer scoops, since that's what Cherry/GMK keycaps are all about.
plenty of active users here actually do prefer bars
But going back to forming your own opinion...plenty of active users here actually do prefer bars, stop trying to push your position on them.

Scoops is not what GMK is all about. Get an inferior set with scoops and no one wants them. Get the same quality without scoops and people would still want them. See BSP/IMSTO as an example. There is nothing superior about scoops, they're just not the norm so people think they're something special.
A majority of the users on here don't even have GMK...the most active of users do but there are tons of users that do not. You keep saying the majority prefer them, no, the vocal users with a stronger opinion prefer them. There is absolutely nothing to indicate users actually prefer them. There is only the vocal users that show that. Same with 55g Topre. You'd think they're the most popular or the most preferred with Topre when factually, they're not.
But going back to forming your own opinion...plenty of active users here actually do prefer bars, stop trying to push your position on them. I see plenty of people follow the leader here without forming their own opinion....but why do you prefer scoops? What makes them better? They're certainly not better from an off center strike position. I'd like to see why others are "wrong".

How many people in this thread prefer bars, two people?
Hey guys - debating scoops vs bars is kinda cool, but since we seem to be having the same discussion across multiple ICs right now. Perhaps we could make a specific thread for this discussion? Just an idea :)pls
Oh boy, Giorgio brought this Scoop vs Bars **** to every interest check.I was thinking the same thing. No need to defile every single IC with that debate.
It's getting annoying...plenty of active users here actually do prefer bars
That's just a bold statement without any evidence. Can you back that up somehow?
If anything most people might be indifferent, but among the enthusiasts most prefer scoops.

@Giorgio & Polymer: Please move this discussion to a separate thread.
Did we get anywhere with the creators of SoWaRe?
Not that I need another set but I'm really looking forward to seeing this made...
This is the set I'm currently waiting for, skipping all other GBs until this goes live cause I simple can't miss out!Shamelessly going in for classic beige even though I just went in for LeandreN's buy and will probably be going in for this as well. RIP wallet.
I think people are sleeping on how good beige alphas would look. It'll look good either way, gray or beige, as long as the mods stay N9. I'll be in for a set.
I suggest the OP to add the option to vote for nipples, bars, or scooped FJ keys. I'd prefer scoops; because, they are a Cherry design characteristic, as far as I know, bars could be found everywhere and nipples are also available somewhere else. Besides, they feel awesome while typing.Are we doing this again?

I would broke my promise to not buy more keyboard stuff in the rest of the year, because this set deserves to be in our inventories.

Fair enough. You may put one in your sig if you wish, however right now we are just working out the logistics, we have enough interest to continue. Also, there is no rush as there are so many gmk buys recently.

Did we get anywhere with the creators of SoWaRe?
Not that I need another set but I'm really looking forward to seeing this made...
We located, and sent a message to the creators over on OTD. Just waiting upon a response. The response we get will dictate the future of this group buy.
Hmm, after the next JTK set is produced and received, maybe you guys can consider JTK as the producer for this set? We have seen a few issues with the purple set, that are being resolved but the general reaction is that it is quite good.Good idea ^
With the compatibility of JTK sets and the lower prices and further, maybe more accurate colour choices it could be a better choice?
If by the time the second run is produced and all of the issues are ironed out, maybe just maybe? ^-^ :-*
That is of course if we get the OK by the original designers and everything is all good to go.

Whether it's beige or grey, I'd be picking up a set 100%.
Hey everyone, just wanted to post a quick update. We are just as excited as you guys are about GMK SoWaRe, however we have to put this group buy on hold for now. We hope to start it up in the future when we have more time and resources!
Much love, byker and vesperSAINT

Yep, it was quite ugly. I think that reaching the moq could be quite easy. A change of strategy is much needed. A minimal ansi and ISO set should cost less than $90, as TA have showed, plus you can have an add-on with all the special layout keys.
It is absolutely possible to bring the price down to $90. You should at least try. And it's 75 days to Christmas :-)Skidata+ is the last GMK set I'm joining this year.

I'm guessing it'll land at about the $115-$120 range. GMK sets seem to hover about there.It is absolutely possible to bring the price down to $90. You should at least try. And it's 75 days to Christmas :-)Skidata+ is the last GMK set I'm joining this year.
I wonder how much will it cost...
honestly I don't think Skidata+ would meet the moq, it's a awesome set, but there are just so many gmk set this year.I'm guessing it'll land at about the $115-$120 range.

It doesn't help that the new JTK set is somewhat similar to Skidata+ and comes in at a much cheaper price.honestly I don't think Skidata+ would meet the moq, it's a awesome set, but there are just so many gmk set this year.I'm guessing it'll land at about the $115-$120 range.

Just my opinion, I think that JTK keycaps cannot replace gmk set right now. Its true the prices are much lower, but the legends on gmk set are much better

I have not seen any information confirming what you have said about the legends, but the opposite. Pictures show a very nice and smooth double shot key caps.

The color and texture seems very nice. But I have seen the e key in most pictues look skinner than other legends. also the legends on modifier keys and function row just look strange to me
Most of the things i' ve noticed is abt consistency of the legends. Anyway i heard rnd 2 is fixing a few things (though no idea what they are) anyway. But overall i like how the 1st one turned out considering they are new and how much they cost.
Edit: forgot to attach. Disregard on the color my phone seems to have changed the top right key.

Is there any hope for this GMK Soware set to happen? I'm still holding out hope as it's definitely one of my favorite color combinations of legends and keycaps.

It's being put on the backburner for now, but OP hopes to come back to it soon.

If you have not checked the SNES set, I think you should, it is similar to this one, but has great colors.

Oh, thanks for the info, that is pretty slick! I hope they offer some kind of add-on to allow users the option to use non purple colors for the top row.
Totally down for a replica, gotta fill out that form now :D

Don't bother, this thread is dead, the OP stated he cannot run this GB.
