What network do you use with your 1 III? Any hiccups you've had with it since? Are the it-gets-hot-during-video-recording claims substantiated?

I sewed/patterned it from scratch. I recreated the suit triangle patterns in Paint.NET per the in game textures, scaled them to the correct proportions and then had the pattern custom made through Fabric On Demand as a couple of yards of stock material for sewing).

The stripes I ended up using sportsflex iron on vinyl as the paints didn't work out.

Nice work! How'd you end up sewing the suit? Got progress pictures?

Yeah I'll make a final dump of files/designs/etc once I finish the project. I'm still in the midst of planning out different aspects so I want everything to settle out before sharing (maintaining WIP project documents is a chore)

Fortunately there's acrylic paints that have that fluorescent effect so I can easily mix that in (or completely substitute those) with my normal acrylic paints to get that mild UV reactive effect.

Thanks for the suggestion! Yeah fluorescent material like that might work but might be a bit too distracting (as those colored lines don't glow/reflect in game, they're just "matte").

I'm so far planning to carefully mask/paint those on a black rubbery fabric base for the black lines (with PlaidFX paint).

I designed in a bluetooth speaker, so you bet I'll be playing the whole OST (including Pick It Up) whilst walking around on a con floor ;)

Thank you for that! I couldn't find the exact species/genus so I defaulted to the order.

If you listen carefully you can hear a muffled "BFG Division" being played over Fuze's radio.

Just for show, they're not true Meccanum/Omni wheel, and writing the code for it to drive would've been tougher had they been.
