>Why is recreating that artwork considered a nightmare?

I may have been thinking of a different game, but until Aaron's 2006 video rewrite happened
the artwork support prior to the video rendering rewrite was sparse before 2006.

I see what Mr. Do was mentioning. I wasn't aware that a layout was done for Space Tactics.

It should be doable, but control panels need to be scanned assuming some spare control panels can be found or someone willing to carefully take apart their Space Tactics cab
which might also be needed for the surrounding interior design shroud that Mr. Do mentions.

In the past, it usually meant Mr. Do having to find pieces or (someone taking a cab piece) to his place so parts can be photographed/scanned. *bezels wanting to drop by for a visit in another part of soCal.....none of them bezels practice wearing a mask, but they promise not to cough or breathe.*
