SWGOH - Conquest weak Wookiees, win with Tarfful and the right DDs - Sifu
I'm just putting this up here, for a guild mate, to show that under a Tarfful lead, even a couple of under-geared Wookiees are enough to get the win feat. I ditched the PTW DD that comes with the premium pass and went with the similar one I nabbed during the event, leaving 4 points to spend. Add in a couple of extra weak Wookiees, 4 points worth of extra DDs and pit them against an easier match than Sector 2 MM, and it's a lot more achievable than you might think.

2023 and im still waiting for someone to actually CNC an aluminium version. 3d printing is just not good enough for this application....
Aluminium simply wouldn't work. The clamp component has to be able to flex, frequently and to a large extent (1-2mm at a guess). I don't profess to be a metallurgist but I can't see how that might work. But I agree that 3D printed materials are probably not robust enough for this application. Solid nylon or even rubber would work much better in my opinion. The liklihood of 3Drap making such a part is unlikely as their name suggests they're a 3D printing company. Likewise, I consider it unlikely that a production company capable of making the part would do so, as it would be a '4th party' component and not economically viable...
@@Sifu_Steve You don't need the flexible part, if you do, a thin slice of metal leaf spring would work better than 3d prints. I'd prefer magnets instead. below the mechanism its possible to replace the springs so the shifter doesn't bounce back and forth. It should be possible to create a whole kit.
tubular man
Shame you no longer post vids, good to know you're still active :) Cheers.
Those are kind words dude. Thank you. The truth is that I put a few videos up for folks on the SWGOH forums. I kept those going but as the game grew, so did the budgets of other content creators (they weren't even called that back then). I couldn't really compete. Moreover, my niche was building squads to beat the current meta. CG has the meta locked down now, behind a pay wall, so as much as I'd love to get back to those anti-meta teams, it's just not viable. That said, I'm having big success in Conquest, so I hope to put up a few vids detailing my various strategies and teams. Keep an eye out...
Just wondering, 2-3 years later how is the clamp holding up? does it still work or did it start showing signs of stress or wear?
Sadly, I don't get anywhere near as much time on my rig nowadays. But it's held up just fine for about 1000 hours of racing. I make sure to keep it greased, which has helped. It *may* have lost some clamping force, but I haven't noticed it.
Good job 3dwrap! <3
I got the transformers crossover Hulk & I wanna swap out the head, it's on a ball joint but I don't know what head would fit. I don't really care to paint him as I like the green & gold, I just want to give him a less Hulk looking head. Any suggestions?
You're limited in size and shape as the head has to fit within the transformation. The Kreo head I used here is probably still easy to find. Likewise, you could pick up a DOTM Guzzle although it would be tiny. I would google 'Transformers with faceplates' and see what comes up. Cosmos is a contender, as is Goldfire with antennae clipped off. Note that for this Guzzle, I removed the entire ball joint and replaced it with another so I had both the ball and cup to match.
I've been looking for that nismo shift knob, it looks amazing! If you could drop a link to where I could get one that would be great. Also how did you mount it to the shifter?
I found it on eBay: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UKNEST-Racing-Black-Resin-Gear-Knob-Shifter-5-6-Speed-For-Nissan-/312778815747 You then need a cheap adaptor: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gear-Shifter-knob-thread-adapter-M12x1-25-fits-Logitech-G27-G29-G920-Mod-Sim-/255386093768 To take the existing one off, pry off the plastic top piece and there's a screw underneath. I seem to recall you use that screw to attach the adaptor and the knob just screws on. In case the links don't work, the search terms are: Nismo gear knob Logitech gear knob adaptor Hope that helps!
What gear shift platform base did you switch to for the required force increase?
This one, from eBay: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kit-Shifter-Holder-L-R-x-Logitech-g29-g920-to-Playseat-Challenge-/143605257641?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m2548.l6249&mkrid=724-127637-2357-0 If the link doesn't work, search for 'Kit Shifter Holder Logitech' and look for an Italian seller called 'maraimo'. It required resetting about every couple of hours and a lot of torque on the clamps. Eventually, because I wasn't using it on an actual Playseat, the join between the two wood parts started to fail, so I switch to the platform that came with my wheel stand. The position is now wrong but stability isn't an issue at least. Eventually, I'll get around to fixing it as it's an easy fix but my rig is stored at the moment...
Where can I buy this ?
Search 3Drap and you'll find it easy enough.
@@Sifu_Steve I meant in the US lol
Honestly, I don't think the advice changes. Pretty sure that if you type '3Drap' into Google anywhere in the world (except maybe China, Russia and North Korea), you'll get their website... To my knowledge, they don't have 3rd party sellers anywhere, so you have to order from their site. I'm in the UK and I seem to recall they have a few production centres. Mine came from Germany.
@@Sifu_Steve the problem is when I go to the Paige the price is in pounds. Also idk how delivery would work . But tnx for the info
@@GamerDadschannel That's interesting because when I bought it, I paid in Euros, ha! One of the perks of 3D printing is that you can electronically send the design anywhere in the world to have it printed locally. I have no doubt you'll be able to order. It could possibly be that you landed on their new 3Drap UK site, not their main site. That's probably why you saw the price in GBP. Good luck!
what is the name of this mod i want to buy it cant find it on there website
Mod Cambio v3.5 H-Shifter

Press down on the stick and put it in 6th.
Great info! Just ordered their h pattern, not sure if its the latest version.
Hi, you sell the mod or the bp?
Hey, i ordered this mod a few weeks ago, so it should be v3.5, but i have the one that snapped for you, not the nylon one. Is that normal ???
If you look closely on the piece itself, you can see what version it is. It should be at least V3.4. If it's anything less than that, it's an error by their picker. If you drop them a line, they'll almost certainly send you a replacement. I'd be interested to know which version you got. You can just take the top plate off and then take a photo with the flash to see it - no need to uninstall it completely.
@@Sifu_Steve indeed v3.3... Thanks a lot for your answer, i'll contact them so they could send me the most recent ones ! Thanks again
@@Sifu_Steve i'm not sure that they are really honest with me... Take a look at their answer : "Hello, the latest version of the slider is v3.3 and is made of plastic. The nylon version has been replaced by the plastic one you received a few months ago. We apologize for the lack of clarity." So v3.3 is the most recent version and plastic replaced the nylon ones. I hate when i'm being fooled, not gonna lie, i'm pretty pissed.
Yeah, that's bullshit. Someone at their office doesn't know what they're talking about. The actual company themselves has commented on here. Reply to them with that response and see what they have to say publicly. If they've reverted to the old V3.3, then I'll edit this video to say it's trash and shouldn't be bought.
@@Sifu_Steve it's confirmed... They went back to 3.3 "Hello, we apologize if there has been a misunderstanding. I inform you that we do not produce any medical pieces, but exclusively sim racing products from the beginning of our business. The mod that was sent to you is V3.5, but on the plastic slider the code is V3.3, and it is our latest version of the slider. We took the nylon part with code V3.4 out of production as it had problems and went back to the plastic one V3.3. It is not in our ethics to make fun of the customer. Sorry if you thought so. We remain available."
Hi, thanks for the video. May I kindly ask you a long term feedback?
Certainly. It's still working with only a slightly noticeable drop in clamping force. I think this new material is not only more flexible but more hard-wearing too. I do have a good routine for maintaining a decent amount of grease which is probably a big factor.
Idk why this was recommended to me but it was a nice nostalgia trip, cool to see how different just one battle was back then compared to now
... and your comment has, in turn, sent me on a nostalgia trip to a simpler time - before GLs, before ruthless monetisation, before 'the meta'. Thank you. 😊
You can't drive a plastic car like it's a real car.
Correct. You definitely earned yourself a biscuit with that insight.
For less tension I just eased up the tightness of the long screw to bolts
This looks like a cool product but for it to last all moving parts need to be metal for it to hold up.
It simply wouldn't work - you wouldn't be able to select a gear. The video I made before this one showed the problems that happen if the centre piece isn't flexible. There has to be enough clamping force to hold the shifter in gear, but enough flexibility for the gear shaft to be able to move through it without it snapping. What it definitely does need is constant applications of grease. But even without that, the piece is expected to wear out eventually (which is why you can buy just that piece separately).
I got a 3Drap and it broke immediately! However 3Drap who I emailed straight away sent me another one and a spare so of you get one and it breaks email them. The mod itself improves racing especially rally driving brilliantly

Some great plays Sifu Steve!
Cheers bud. I'll make sure you're in the next set...
I have PS4 and g923 i want to connect 2 shifters (Logitech)on the wheel.One for shifter and the other for handbrake.Can I fix these on the wheel or on PS4??? Thanks a lot!!!
Not easily. There is only a single port for the shifter and therefore, it can only recognise 1 shifter at a time. I play with a wired pad connected which helps when I'm switching between menus/map etc. It allows you to use both wheel and pad together. My plan was to plug a USB handbrake in but it turns out that once you start a race, it 'commits' you to only use one controller input and the pad gets disconnected. There are ways of doing it but it involves soldering the handbrake wires to one of the buttons on the wheel... and that is way beyond me atm. You can look that up elsewhere on UA-cam if you're interested.
I had this same issue, contacted 3DRap and they promised to send me a couple replacements of different varieties. Tired of waiting I opted for a solution from Custom Sim Shop with a replacement ball bearing spring and simply removed the broken slider only. I still use the gate with stainless, without the slider and it's amazing. In my opinion it's way better than anything 3DRap can come up with alone.
Where did you get the clamp
Ebay. If the link doesn't work, the seller's name is maraimo: www.ebay.it/itm/143626207493
Mines annoying me, the space between each gears is so small, quick shifting can easily screw you over if youre not careful, also idk if anyone else has this problem but I can be in either 2nd or 3rd and it'll think its in neutral until I shake it a tiny bit, also the things that lock in place don't lock in place anymore, I think I just got a shitty one lol
By the looks of the broken slider when installed compared with the directions, there's a little nub on the top of the slider that is oriented towards the front. In your video it's reversed and could be the cause of your breakage.
If you'd watched the video you would know that I explained, at length, the reason for that (1.54 onwards). TL,DW: It was initially installed the correct way but after the break, I switched it around so that if I was only going to get clamping force at one end, it was going to be in the top range.
While I find it cool you can do this, why does it matter that you can underdog with empire?
Sorry, I didn't see this come in. You've probably worked it out by now but it was one of the requirements in that particular Galactic Challenge- to win with an undersized squad.
@@Sifu_Steve right but the fun/easy part of those challenges is that you can underdog with any squad you want. You don’t have to do it with the same faction the challenge is for.
@@Valnoir_ That's fair, I suppose. But with this squad you can get the max payout in one match... What could be easier than that? 😉
Mine broke exactly the same way. Same exact place on the middle piece and same gates. I didn't reach yet tho
Guess we all need to make videos of our broken 3drap
Exactly the same thing happened to me. The whole top plate cracked in addition to other issues.
The internals made shifting way too hard. Completely unrealistic. I removed them and only use the gate now, which I actually needed to modify as well. Wasn't going into 2nd properly and had to grind away some material. The gate definitely improves shifting accuracy for me now. Poor quality overall though and not worth what I paid. 3d rap also never gave me a tracking number and were a bit rude when I politely asked for it.
Same shits happening to me, going from 1st to second isn't a straight shot and sometimes it thinks its in neutral, i feel if youre really delicate and gentle with it it'll work better, but who tf wants to drive around a racing game like a grandma 24/7 lmfao
Just an update for my case. I ordered the latest slider version (3.5) and i installed it. It s a quite hard slider (time will tell), but the 2 round parts that go into the red cylinders are too thin (the 3.3 version was ok). That makes the slider’s horizontal movement very very difficult - even with enough lubricant. 3drap needs to take that into consideration..(i just used a tool to trim the two holes a little bit!!)
Yeah, I spotted that too and mentioned it in the video. If you look early in the vid when I first hold the 3.4 part up, you can see on one angle, the hole's not quite round. I was lucky enough to have a circular file to fix it but it's something they really should have addressed for 3.5.
@@Sifu_Steve the round parts of my samples (3.5) were too tight. I had to use a scissor to widen them. Now they are perfect. I hope they will fix the issue in the nearest future
How much is this? I am debating on this upgrade or theres a $10 spring upgrade that solves the bland feeling shifts as well. This spring was just released a few months ago so I might do that.
It's currently on sale on their site: www.3drap.it/logi-mods/ The main mod component is €23 and the steel top plate is €10. They've since released an aluminium version of the plate for the same price. It's down to your budget obviously but if you're going with this setup, don't skip the plate - it was one of the factors I identified in the first video. I have a friend who installed something that used a rubber band. I've not used it, but he's used mine and says it's way better... but mine did cost 3 times as much. The main selling point with 3Drap's solution is the clamping force when in gear. If the spring you've found does that as well, then it may do a good job. Personally I can't see how any spring setup could, but I've not seen it. Good luck! I find with these sort of things, I either buy nice or buy twice. (",)
How can you get into reverse gear
push the stick downward and then into 6th is R on this one
Have you got steel or aluminium top plate? What's the difference between those?
At the time I put this video up, they were only offering the basic plastic (+sticker) or a steel top plate. There was no aluminium option. I do say in this video that the steel plate adds a lot of weight which can mess with your shifter mount, causing it to slip. I would assume that the aluminium plate has been made to address that issue and will be considerably lighter.
@@Sifu_Steve does the slider still works ok (in terms of durability)? Is it still hard? Do y have any update after so many days? I would be interested to know
Yeah, still no problems with the slider. I'd actually hoped it might have loosened a teeny bit by now. I do keep it really well greased though.
@@Sifu_Steve that s good news..i will buy the latest version then! Thanks!
Nice Video :)
What about the durability of your new v3.4 slider? Does it stand until now? Is it broke? I m interested to know as i do own the 3.3 version which - after some time - it lost the initial feeling..
I'm happy to report it's still holding up as well as when I first installed it. We're over a month in and the nylon filament is clearly a much better solution than hard plastic. If I'm honest, I was kinda hoping it would have loosened up a bit because the additional force needed to shift can move my mount after an hour or so, meaning I have to loosen it, revolve it back into place and then tighten again... but that's just my own pedantry. The extra flex also seems to reduce the amount of friction and subsequent wear. As an aside, they've sent me V3.5 but as the screw holes are starting to look a dangerously close to threading (after several removals of the case), I probably won't install that unless this V3.4 fails.
I had exactly the same issue: 1st and 2nd notch broke almost imediatelly. I guess 3drap should remove those sharp “edges” on the notches of the plastic plate and make them more roundish. Fortunatelly i did buy the metal plate too. I also had 2 broken “sliding parts”. 3drap communicated with me and kindly sent me new parts - telling me it was due to a manufacturing error. I did get the 3.3 v and not the 3.4 but it s ok with it :) I really hope 3.4 is a better product!✌️
It is! I made a follow-up to this vid reviewing V3.4. Problem solved. Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/3pX8iC-t5UY/v-deo.html (N.B. I have no vested interest in promoting 3Drap or my own channel, but after they fixed this in such short order I figured credit was due).

@@bogus_ody Same for me: they ve sent me the 3.3 but i think the 3.4 was not manufactured at that time. I guess they do have some 3.3 in stock before they start sending the new ones..

Hello 3DRap, i ordered the mod cambio 3.5 a few weeks ago and received 3.3 plastic piece instead of the nylon one. Contacted you on your email and received this answer : "Hello, the latest version of the slider is v3.3 and is made of plastic. The nylon version has been replaced by the plastic one you received a few months ago. We apologize for the lack of clarity." So plastic one replaced the nylon... Is that somekind of joke ? Wanted to order the aluminum top plate, i'll pass...
hi, unfortunately you have mounted the mod upside down (not respecting the direction of the arrow). This compromised the functionality of the mod. In any case we have launched a new version of the mod reinforced and made with the most innovative 3d printing technology in the world: SLS (selective laser sintering) and soon we will send you a sample hoping that you will talk about it in your yt channel. thank you.
For anybody who lands here, here's the final word: I initially installed it correctly but after the snap, switched it so I had better clamping force across the forward range. I didn't mentioned that in the video. But... 3Drap sent me their latest version (V3.4) as a replacement and I'm happy to say, they have addressed both issues I faced here with a metal top plate and nylon-based clamp. At their request, I put a video together to highlight the improvements: ua-cam.com/video/3pX8iC-t5UY/v-deo.html P.S. It's not cool to reply to every comment. No need guys. You won me over.
Thats it man! Great explained. After they Send me 2 New pieces, i put one back. now the New piece struggeling when i Wanne slide from left side to the right side..... The shifter doesent come back to the middel when i put it in neutral N I have ordered this Metall plate.... So sharp edges. My shifter had now so many scratches. Bad quality. Its very sad, i spent such of money for nothing 🥲
Cheers for commenting bud. I noticed there was a lot of excess filament in lots of the screw holes. My guess is that your left-to-right problem is because you've got excess filament in one of the holes that the red runners go through. Cheers for mentioning it because when I get my replacement parts, I'm going to file down those holes when I file down the inside clamping surface. I also plan to glue some small pieces of metal wire on the underside of those partitions to give them some more strength. But dude, we really shouldn't need to be doing any of this. 3Drap should sort their product out rather than riding high on all the positive 'initial experience' reviews they've had...
@@Sifu_Steve hi, unfortunately you have mounted the mod upside down (not respecting the direction of the arrow). This compromised the functionality of the mod. In any case we have launched a new version of the mod reinforced and made with the most innovative 3d printing technology in the world: SLS (selective laser sintering) and soon we will send you a sample hoping that you will talk about it in your yt channel. thank you.

Update: 3Drap got back to me. There may have been a language barrier but despite my lengthy complaint, all I got was 'We will send you replacement parts'. There was no response to my suggestion of filament change or anything to do with the fault itself. In fact, there wasn't even an apology. I'm rapidly become unconvinced with the idea that 3Drap are the premium solution.

Still working.. amazing.
That TD thing is one of those weird mechanics that seem to sit outside the normal rules of play (you know, the mechanics they stick on every new paywall toon now). This was a particularly bad run - usually Engineer survives a bit longer and Scav is the last man (jawa) standing. I've put this team against Shaak Ti and OR relic teams and even if they don't win, they completely cripple them. Not bad for a team I built for the AAT's release...
Nice
Nute>Droidika?
Nice 😁
i´m glad you came back!
I'm glad Grievous came back too! Hope you've been well this last year. d-(",)-b
Awesome job. Makes me wish Hasbro would do this. :)
What mods did you use on your team?? I personally want to run a separatist deck despite everyone saying I shouldn’t, so any help is greatly appreciated!! Awesome video btw
