Buy an empty shell

I see alot of custom services in the megathread but i already have my own hardware and don't need someone to make me artwork, i'm looking to buy the box only.

I have seen some clear acrylic boxes on Aliexpress but does anyone have additional box/case suppliers and what are the search terms i'm looking for?

Nevermind it's a fightstick enclosure or fightstick chassis.

I'll just google some.

Audio cues for blocking or parrying

So i'm trying to get into fighting games and one thing that every fighting game video never seems to mention is the way blocking and cues are designed. It's super obvious and yes sneer at me all you want for not seeing it immediately. But it would help as an absolute beginner to know that in these skill based games everything is designed to be telegraphed to some degree when you're in nuetral.

In the context of DBFZ but also some generic vids they will say stuff like "An overhead has more startup frames and you need to stand up to block it".

Like yeah. Ok.

But maybe mention that everything has a visual and audio warning before it happens?

Vanishing has a big visual effect and a loud shriek when it happens.

Supers that bypass a front block often have the character yell something specific as they do it.

Overheads don't have a sound but because they float the character before the hit comes they're generously telegraphed.

Like, i'm playing in the dojo with Picollo now and just trying to blick him randomly using jabs, sweeps, overheads, vanishes and supers. At least i can lab reactions now and have a chance at defense because god knows I get my ass comboed to death as soon they hit confirm.

The irony of it is i picked up reacting to audio over animations from the E33 subreddit.
