A few wiring quesitons

Pages: << < (2/3) > >>

Rawker:

so do you guys think 2 db25 cables is enough for the control panel?

and can i double wire the 1st player joystick and buttons? so that i don't have to switch any wires, just power up the dreamcast.

My bad... I thought that was your site obviously...  :-X  my bad.  ;)

Negativecreep0:

two DC controls would fit in a DB 25 cable right?           you have 11 contact for each controller, plus one ground for both? so a total of 23 wires.    Is that right?

Rawker:

yeah i think that would work out with 2 dc controllers on one db25 cable.

so does anyone know if i can double wire the joysticks

Would that work. I have a hacked dc pad, but I wasn't sure if I could do that.
