How do I build my own ps to pc adapter?
jonno:
Hi
Im new to this board, and I browsed through it a lot noticing a lot of ppl talking about this.
Yet everyone keeps saying buy an adapter.. well thats all good but I want to try and make it myself just for the fun og it :D
I want to try and use a DB25 pin plug to do this, I know this works becouse I have seen adapters u can buy with that plug.
I just have absolutely no clue how to do it ???
Now I checked The tutorial by mike (http://narx.net/~mike/projects/psxadaptor)
But that goes into powersupplies etc. I dont think I need all that.
So if anyone knows how to do this can You just inform me in here :P I think if we get a good tutorial in here it would be good for general public so id sticky it.
Anyways thanks guys
Later
Jonno

Seconded. Those are the plans I used for mine. I've never done anything of the sort, and was very surprised when it worked perfectly the first time I tried it :)

YEs, it works (i have 3 and they are working form 4 years ago, with pads driving whells and dance mats), but if you look carefully you could find similar plans to make adapters for 4 or more ps pads to one parallel port

you can find a 5 player wiring schematic here:

ppjoy supports up to 8 depending on which wiring setup you choose:
