If I do decide to sell, I'll post in the FS forum. |

I voted OTHER -- combination keyboard hack with my own gameport mod. The gameport mod I made using 8 resistors and 4 microchip relays. No drivers required, it is the default 2-joystick configuration in Windows, which is two 8-way joysticks plus 2 buttons each joystick. I use the keyboard hack to round out the other 4 buttons each per player, and other misc buttons like P1, P2, etc. Total cost <$10, mostly for the relays. I'll post a pic from my cab once I get them ready, it works great and you don't have to worry about any ghosting issues from the keyboard hack. it DID take awhile to get working though! ;D |

IPAC4. Great support, enough inputs, saves the custom config files, no problems with linux. |

Keyboard hack. At the time, I was trying to do the cabinet as cheap as possible, and I had an old keyboard with a 2" trackball, so I hacked both the KB and trackball. The keyboard, however, was an older style with actual switches rather than a small encoder board attached to a membrane, so I was soldering to the backs of the switches on the motherboard. I cut a hole in the keyboard case to run the wires out of and stuck the whole keyboard in my cabinet... it became both my encoder and my maintenance keyboard. :) My more recent keyboard hack is more standard, and I use a USB keyboard for maintenance. I'm thinking of building a cocktail cabinet now; if I do, I'll move the KB hack to it and put an IPac in the main cabinet. --Chris |
