U360 Button Wiring
« on: October 03, 2011, 04:05:22 pm »

What are the pros/cons of wiring buttons directly to the stick vs wiring them to an encoder?
I plan on wiring the stick to USB so I can load mappings on a per game basis.
Finally, with the stick connected via USB well, I run into any other weird cases (ie. should the stick itself also be wired to an encoder, for emulators that may not see it correctly as a USB device? )

Pro: harness cheaper than an encoder(well at least the ones I would get)

If not using an encoder, windows sees the joystick as a gamepad.  Some new PC games I wish this weren't true.
