please add shift 1.25 row 4 into base
i'm curious what is that for?
I assume a standard ISO layout that does split Lshift to jam the 1U NUBS key in there.

but there is not ISO in the base kit...
however, i'm looking to add a separate ISO kit instead.

If you’re troubleshooting this, I’d start by testing with the simplest setup possible - disconnect any extra peripherals or mods and see if the problem still happens. That usually helps narrow down whether it’s the board itself, a switch/socket, or something in the setup.

One thing I’d check first is whether the issue follows the switch/key itself or stays with the same PCB position. Swapping the switch with a known-good one is a quick way to narrow it down. If the problem stays in the same position, I’d look at the socket, solder joints, or PCB traces.

Tp4, what does the future look like.

Well,,, it's not all bad.... Basically all the old fotos you see floating around.

Obesity will solve itself, the health care industry will collapse. People will have to leave cities and go back to rural farming.

Alot more digging involved.

Women will probably have fewer rights, even if on paper they do, the energy system simply won't support the "freedom to act on that liberty".

I think maybe the confusion is stemming from me requesting "one" instead of just saying 1.5u supers implying two. I just want to be able to do a mac bottom row.

any chance at all of getting a 1.5u super for the alps kitting? I don't know much about the SP molds for alps so I don't know if they exist but if they'd do it would really cool.

a single 1.5u Super? what board/layout would you use it with? i dont think there will be enough demand to be honest. most people who will buy the Alps keyset are going to build standard TKLs, Full sizes, maybe WK/WKL 60s

Either an 8k TKL or a 60%, it would just be nice to have a super for mac users in the proper key spot. I really don't enjoy using a 1.25u based bottom row. I understand its probably not very popular and that is fine I would likely just op to pass and skip an alps build in the future because I don't really want to use vintage beige caps.

Can you please share a picture of the board/layout so I can see where the key would go?

Interest Checks / Re: [IC] GMK CYL Desert Nights | Considering PBT and Making Corresponding Renders

100% agree with swag. That understated, starry effect like on GMK Cosmos or Siege is essential for the theme's depth and intrigue, and other manus like PBTfans just haven't been able to nail that look. Really hoping you hold firm to the original GMK ABS sparkle as this project hopefully moves forward.

Ok, you brought me out of my hole -- I'm supposed to be a lurker only, but I've been following Desert Nights for some time now.

I just wanted to chime in that I'd much rather this stay as a GMK set. I see GMK's more subtle sparkle effect as a big draw -- not a drawback!

While the comparison with Vior make sense (especially since they're very similiar colorways), I don't personally like Vior's implementation of the sparkles. I was really hoping that Desert Nights would be more like a violet/indigo version of GMK Cosmos -- just with sandy colored legends/sparkle effects. I thought your initial renders captured this really well and I really think you should hold firm to that original design aesthetic. Yes, GMK costs more, take forever, and can be a huge pain to work with -- but they would be the ideal partner for this project.

This has the potential to be a really amazing set. I hope it turns out great and I'll be watching.

That's all I wanted to say -- talk to ya'all again in another 7 1/2 years
