[taking orders!] Double shot replacements ROUND FOUR!
« Reply #400 on: Sun, 21 August 2011, 07:18:15 »
so for equipping a whole german layout keyboard (105, ISO Enter) i have to type this:

ROUND3/STD/WHITE/BLACK (All caps, centered, standard kit 109 keys, white on black)
ROUND3/DE/WHITE/BLACK (All caps, centered, german kit 22 keys, white on black)

Am I right?

Although I would have leftovers then from the STD kit...ah and no space obviously o.O

exactly.

And:  
- you need to state numbers in your order, like "ROUND3/STD/WHITE/BLACK 1"
- you need to add your emailadress like "EMAIL e-mail@address"

this leaves 3 questions:
A) Which Spacebar fits Filcos?
B) Which is Standard Color Scheme for ROUND3, as it is not stated in the wiki
and especially:
C) As the prices depend heavily on order-numbers: It is possible to get statistics with ordering numbers for the most ordered sets?

Are there media keys in the round3 style available? Volume, prev, next, and play/pause specifically.

Bonus points for Exposé, Dashboard, Sleep, and Display Off (but I wouldn't be surprised if nobody wants those, so... yeah)

I would like them. Indeed I proposed the idea some months ago. Unfortunately I'm unable to create the needed SVGs.

Well, for Round 3 style text-only would fit better. But yeah, some icons for the other styles would probably be good.

is it even possible for the ROUND3 kit to choose any different colours besides those that have already been posted in the forum, I mean those white on grey ALP kit and white on black MOD kit...Seems as if those are ROUND3/STD in default colours, I might be wrong though.

I have some questions hope you can bear with me as I'm new here!

So are the bianco and round3's both CAPS + CENTRED?
And can you explain what the GE/GX color scheme is for the Round3's? (looks like I will probably go the bianco's because of the color options)
What sites can you order direct from as alternatives to qtan and ebay? Especially unique and cool designs. I am after clear keycaps for FUNCTION keys.

Quote from: litster;401888
7bit, does the DOLCH kit come with spacebar, or do we need to order them separately?  Thanks.

 
I would say separately, because not everybody uses it on a Filco/Ducky etc.

ROUND3/SPACE/GREY should do the trick.

Do I have to add DE anywhere like so:

So how should I order gamer kit?

BIANCO/GAMER/WHITE/RED 1?

Do the round3 keycaps have different profile from BIANCO set?

And I ordered this:
BIANCO/STD87/RED 1
BIANCO/SPACE/RED 1

But I want the space to be white... So I suppose, I should order BIANCO/SPACE 1 only, right?

Round3: CAPS + CENTRED, Dolch-scheme (what we had in Round 3)
Bianco: Caps + Centered, black on white
Retro:Caps + Off-Center, lightblue on white or lightgrey, modifers on dark grey
Dark:Caps + Off-Center, guess ...
SPH:CAPS + CENTRED, black on white, modifiers white on dark-grey, numbers, cursors etc, white on black
ALPS:Caps + Centered or Off-Center (not yet decided)

These colors are only the default color schmees. Other colors might be available...

http://deskthority.net/wiki/Doubleshot_Replacements_Round_4

Clear caps will be also available ...
...
OK, I added BIANCO/BLANK*/CLEAR and SPH/BLANK*/CLEAR

There are only 2 families available. DCS cylindrical key caps, what we had in Round1-3 and SA spherical, which is tghe key family for the SPH style.


BIANCO/SPACE/WHITE or just BIANCO/SPACE

Just one or two clarifications... In the wiki there's the GAMER kit included in the RETRO set, but in ROUND3 the GAMER kit had letters centered. Does this mean that in ROUND4 it will be off-center?

And second question... The text description of BIANCO set says that it is BLACK on WHITE with addon kits in different colour. So I thought that if I order BIANCO/STD/RED I get A-Z keys in BLACK on WHITE and for example Capslock, Alts and Shifts will be in red on white... But in the picture "Layout sample: BIANCO/STD/RED/WHITE (short: BIANCO/STD/RED)" I see all key caps in red on white.

All those kits are style-specific. ROUND3/GAMER comes in centered, all-caps,  BIANCO/GAMER comes in CamelCase centered, etc.

BIANCO/STD
BIANCO/STD
BIANCO/SPACE

or you have to order
BIANCO/FUN
BIANCO/ALP
BIANCO/PUN
BIANCO/CUR
BIANCO/NOP
BIANCO/NUM
BIANCO/MOD/RED
BIANCO/SPACE

Maybe I will make some other color-schemes available, depending on demand ...

Looking at the Round 3 photo thread, it appears there were some media keys with text labels (but not exposé/dashboard/sleep) included in the FUNCTION set. Will those keys still be in the current FUNCTION set? If so, any chance of splitting that set up a little? I don't really have a use for a F23. (can that kit be described somewhere?

I see there are blank kits on the wiki page now. I'm wondering about some things...

Should I still specify a base kit? BLANK/BLANKSTD/WHITE sounds silly, but is this needed for the key profile?

I see there's a blank J return, what about iso shift? Or is that shape included in BLANKSTD? ...BLANK/SHIFT125/WHITE?
And... I have to make sure, haha. A J-shaped return looks like an L rotated 180 degrees? I don't get the name. :s

@7Bit: I'm looking for the same kit as well (filco majestouch german layout) plus 2 sets of arrow keys, a puller and a red ESC key.

Is this correct or is there something missing (MOD Kit ?) ?
I assume that the keys (STD and DE) are black with white letters. It is possible to get grey caps with black letters (I think this is only available for RGB kits isn't it) ? Sorry for the stupid questions but it's my first time (group buy). Thank you.

The Round 3 kits will be new stuff.

Your order should look like this:
ROUND3/STD
ROUND3/DE
ROUND3/SPACE
or
ROUND3/SPACE/BLACK


ok since ROUND3 does not offer a black background (ALP, NUM) I decided to go with the RETRO instead. Ok I really read the wiki very carefully and I think this would be possible:

RETRO/DE/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/ALP/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/PUN/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/NUM/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/CUR/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/MOD/BLUE/BLACK
RETRO/FUN/BLUE/BLACK
RETRO/NOP/BLUE/BLACK
RETRO/SPACE/BLACK

at least the wiki says those colour combinations are possible. Do I have to buy an extra ISO Enter or is that included in the german kit? the exact content of the german kit is not shown here.

Is my RETRO setup possible so far? Should fit a whole Filco Keyboard with german layout and ISO Enter. Have I forgotten anything? Except my email address :P

Some questions:
Because Retro and Bianco Blanks would be more or less the same there are just Bianco ones? Having to chose a basic style for blank key caps confuses me.
And BLANKSTD + BLANKJRET (and a space bar I suppose) is enough for a 105 iso board, or is a 1.25 shift etc. needed?
The normal Space fits on keyboards with two stabilizers and a switch between them? "4 keymounts" - confusing again. :P
Thanks!

No, I don't think a "VIM for Caps Lock" thread would be useful.

I will add the VIMCONTROL, or VIMCTRL, or VIMCAPS to the list.

The current FUNCTION kit will not contain F1-F24. These are available separately.

I will upload a list as soon as possible to the wiki. However, it will be a text only kit, but there could be a SYMBOLS kit or so ...

ps: anybody in need for keys up to F30 or F32?

I see there are blank kits on the wiki page now. I'm wondering about some things...

Should I still specify a base kit? BLANK/BLANKSTD/WHITE sounds silly, but is this needed for the key profile?

I see there's a blank J return, what about iso shift? Or is that shape included in BLANKSTD? ...BLANK/SHIFT125/WHITE?
And... I have to make sure, haha. A J-shaped return looks like an L rotated 180 degrees? I don't get the name. :s

 
Sounds silly, but isn't!

The different styles have different colors, for example the blue in the BIANCO style is BE while it is BDH in the SPH style. If you want the blue which is present in the BIANCO style, you order BIANCO/BLANK*/BLUE, where * is one of the blank kits:

BLANKFULL    120    75   blank Full kit (supports all keyboards)
BLANKSTD    109   55   blank Standard kit
BLANKSTD87    92   45   blank Standard kit without numpad
BLANKFUN    16   7   blank function keys
BLANKALP    37   12   blank function keys
BLANKMOD    19   18   blank modifier keys
BLANKJRET    1   1   blank J-shape Return (ISO)
BLANKLRET    1   1   blank L-shape Return (big-ASS)

I will upload pictures of all the available CR/FF/Return/Enter/Datenfreigabe keys.

ok since ROUND3 does not offer a black background (ALP, NUM) I decided to go with the RETRO instead. Ok I really read the wiki very carefully and I think this would be possible:

RETRO/DE/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/ALP/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/PUN/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/NUM/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/CUR/WHITE/BLACK
RETRO/MOD/BLUE/BLACK
RETRO/FUN/BLUE/BLACK
RETRO/NOP/BLUE/BLACK
RETRO/SPACE/BLACK

at least the wiki says those colour combinations are possible. Do I have to buy an extra ISO Enter or is that included in the german kit? the exact content of the german kit is not shown here.

Is my RETRO setup possible so far? Should fit a whole Filco Keyboard with german layout and ISO Enter. Have I forgotten anything? Except my email address :P

 
There is no blue on black for the Retro kit!

However, if there is a high demand, I might change my mind.

RETRO    *   RED/BLACK

^^^ Did I enter these lines?

I really should buy that Round 4 for Dummies book....

the Round 4 wiki says for RETRO (Retro style for Cherry MX):

 - RETRO    *   BLUE/BLACK
 -                    *: everything not listed in lines above.

the placeholder * is for the kits and the MOD, FUN and NOP kit are not mentioned in the chart so for me this means they can be chosen in the colours with placeholders. That is so weird.....

If you mean the mentioned colours in the chart are not available then a " *: currently unavailable" would be much better understandable than "*: everything not listed in lines above." Otherwise it might be gotten wrong.

You are right!

These colors are necessary for the RGB keys anyway, so everything is fine :-)

So, would anyone be interested in an Arch Linux key? I'd really love one, but I'm not sure anyone besides me would be interested, and I'm also not really sure how to get a new key into the group buy.

BIANCO/BLANKMOD/WHITE  (will be white (WA))
RETRO/BLANKMOD/WHITE  (will be white ore light grey noit yet decided)
DARK/BLANKMOD (very dark grey (GX) is as close to white as it could in the DARK style)
ROUND3/BLANKMOD/GREY  (compared to Retro, this comes much closer to white)
SPH/BLANKMOD/WHITE (WA white again, but this time as spherical key caps)

Everything with Linux is always welcome!

How should it look like? If it is an image, you need to make an SVG graphic.

So my first assumption is correct and my order would be possible including the blue/black mod, fun and nop kit?

Looking to get in on this group buy since I was so happy with round 3 (and by the time i get round 4 keys, my current ones will be worn to the stem).   :)

Somebody asked earlier in this thread about the round 3 labels for some of the modifiers (how some are larger text size/don't match), will this be the same on these keys? Will the off-centered font styles be all the same text size on modifiers? Will it say Delete or Del? I would like some clear up on things like this.

As far as color schemes, will the F-keys all be the same color on all kits, or will they be like the Round 3 and be 2toned with f1-f4 being gray and f5-f8 being dark gray, etc?

The dark kits are the only sets with every key the same color? What are chances on other font colors besides orange? I would love a blue/lightblue/green font on dark gray over the orange.

Round 3 keys are gray with dark gray modifiers? the sc2 keys (protoss f-key) are black? If this is correct what is the gray color going to be for "RETRO keys in lightblue on white or light grey, Modifiers in lightblue on dark grey." Does that mean they gray will be lighter than the Round3 gray?

I think that is all for now, I am sure I will have tons more questions. Looking forward to this group buy more than round3.

Edit: oh yeah, forgot about the space bars for filco... i would love to have a 'less sharp' version this round. That is one of my only real complaints on the keys.

Also, what colors will be available for blank keys?

The current FUNCTION kit will not contain F1-F24. These are available separately.

I will upload a list as soon as possible to the wiki. However, it will be a text only kit, but there could be a SYMBOLS kit or so ...
Excellent, text-only is exactly what I want.

Okay, thanks 7bit. Still wondering about a blank iso shift though. ;)

The different styles have different colors

Ah, okay. I don't want solar flare white, so I think I'll go with retro white then.

So... something like

RETRO/BLANKSTD/WHITE 1
RETRO/BLANKJRET/WHITE 1
RETRO/SPACE/WHITE 1

I guess. Only thing now is that shift.

and a pink... pink spacebar... @_@  nah... i may be able to resist that.

I suppose while I'm making requests, could a backspace sized "DELETE" key and a delete sized "FORWARD DELETE" or "⌦" key be added to the APPLE kit? (I'd use the text for the round3 style, and either the text or symbol for the others. If you need a SVG, if someone points me in the right direction for how to make one, I suppose I could try)

Looks like the round3 style used "RETURN" instead of enter, so hopefully the round3 style in round4 will too, but a return key could be added to the APPLE set for other styles. Assuming the other styles will be using enter. (numpad enter should still be enter, btw)

BIANCO blue on white vs. RETRO blue on white/dark grey

Spacebar and Windows Key questions

Just a couple of questions:

What spacebar do I order for a Filco Tenkeyless/104 (Retro)?

I see a Windows kit described in the Wiki-how to order (also in Retro)?

Thanks

Okay, another verification post (I haven't purchased Round 4 for Dummies yet).

So, I want the standard 87 light blue Bianco kit w/ RGB modifiers, and white on lightblue WASD. I also want the Starcraft keys, and 2 Cherry red escapes.

My order looks like this:

BIANCO/STD87/LIGHTBLUE 1
BIANCO/GAMER/WHITE/LIGHTBLUE 1
BIANCO/RGB104 1
SCWIN 1
SCESC 1
CHERRYREDESC 2

All I have to do is add my email now?

Thanks, guys.
