An Ultrastik with the correct mapping and connected digitally (via an iPac) gives exactly the same control as a dedicated 45 degrees rotates 4 way stick. --- End quote --- Assuming you like the feel of an ultrastik. That's a compromise in itself. |

Works like a charm with a square restrictor and mame config-ed right. good day. |

If you hook up both the Ultrastik 360 USB output (gamepad) AND the output to the IPAC (keyboard) - they're supposed to work (output) at the same time. SO a button press = gamepad button + keyboard output. I can see this causing problems in newer (Windows) based games.... |

He did. I emailed him last night. It outputs both at the same time - so you really have to choose one or the other and unplug the one you don't plan on using. |
