Hey Haruman first time post here - interested in purchasing 2 hacked Xbox 360 controllers to be shipped to the UK can you send me a PM with estimated price?

Do you do PS3 Controller Hacks?  Don't see any mention of them.  I'm planning to build a Showcase cab this spring with my modded PS3.  Do you hack the controllers or do people use something else for PS3 controls?

People typically use the toodles axisdapter with a PS3 sixaxis controller.  I can buy the kits and make them for you, and assemble the whole deal if you like.

Hello GinsuVictim saw a topic on gamefaqs about nes controllers that could play on an original xbox and he said your the man to talk to. I am just wondering what kinds of controllers can you do for the xbox to play with emulators?  Thanks

You want the analog joystick or the D-pad?  I can do both.  Most DC games just use the D-pad.

You can send me an email...  it's my username here, all lowercase, @gmail.com

Oh grand master of controller hacks, tell me, is there a wireless xbox controller - not 360 - which you hack and have on hand or can get?  I didn't read through all 5 pages of thread to find out if this question has been asked already.  I want to play around with a cheap xbox and this "newfangled" coinop thing that I'm reading about.  Many thanks oh wise and great solderer.

Hi HaRuMaN
I have just read through the post, and you look like exactly what I need. However I need to understand why you say you dont hack analogue?

Is it because they are separatable from the main PCB and can be placed where I want already?

I need an xbox style USB controller hacking. Something like:

But I want access to both of the analogue pots to attach to a steering wheel and a gearstick and I also want both the analogue triggers intact to move elsewhere.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but yeah I want a hacked controller for the digital bits but I also want to move the analogue bits about 16 inches apart. Does this sound feasible or does the analogue bits become redundant on your hacked controllers?

Cheers,
Lins.

Hmmm this is a learning game isnt it. I think the rabbit hole goes much deeper heheh.

I think I now know the answer to my above question. Am I right in thinking the analog stuff (triggers and joypads) are fixed to the PCB and you cant remove it because of the complications involved with variable signals and return positions etc?

If that is the case, how about replacing the analogues with something like this:
http://www.sparkfun.com/products/9032
Is it possible to link that in to say the above controller of mine and run it through the same USB interface? Or am I then going to hit major problems with the drivers for a PC?

Hmmmm, Sorry if I am hijacking your thread, please let me know and I'll stop asking on this one for advice.
Cheers,

L

As far as I know, no one has ever successfully connected a steering wheel or analog joystick to the pots.

You could relocate the analog sticks...  probably not the triggers, though.  I do hack the triggers so that they are digital.

Aaah sorry heheh. Location added.

So I think I could put up with digital triggers, but would you be able to help me relocate the analogue sticks? Put them onto 20cm or 30cm wires so I can place them where I need to?


Cheers,

Superb! Thank you so much for your help.
Because I am wanting to use the Raspberry Pi for this due to my size restrictions I just want to wait a couple more weeks until it comes out so I can confirm what joypads have support for it immediately then I will be putting in an order.


Cheers again,

Lins.

Excellent. May have some business with you as well, then.

While we're on the subject of controls, does anybody know how the windows driver handles the hacked triggers. Does it still try to treat them as one axis?

Hello, I'm new here, so I can't pm yet. 
I'm making a MAME/ xbox 360 arcade cab.  I would like to know how much you are asking for 2 of the wired madcatz controller hacks.  Shipping would be to Ontario, Canada.  I don't have the controllers to send you, so please include them in the price.   ( I'm assuming the madcatz controllers work on pc with the drivers installed, like an official controller?)
Thanks.

Heya Haruman

Just received my new Vewlix L...keen to get some custom work done (similar to your recent pic) - 2 wired 360 controllers with vewlix connectors and maybe some other bits and pieces (would love it if you were interested in working up some sort of switching solution as well, so that i could make my cabinet more non-fuss-multifunctional in future) - to be sent to Australia.

Not sure how many posts I need to make before I can PM? I don't seem able to click on profiles.

cheers

Hi HaRuMaN,

I was wondering if you've ever hacked a TG16 TurboStick, or if you know of anywhere that has instructions on how to hack them.

Thanks

I have not hacked that stick, but I have hacked a couple of TG16 pads.  I have never seen the insides of the TurboStick.

First off, I would like to say that I am amazed by your work.  Your posts have inspired me to finally attempt a Dualshock 3 padhack I've been considering for a few months.

I am a little bit lost, however, as to how to get started, and I have a few questions regarding how you personally perform your padhacks.  If you wouldn't mind my picking your brain, please PM me.

If the guts are like these:



Then I wouldn't touch it.  PCB is flakey and triggers are a pain (need transistors & resistor to get them working).

I honestly don't know, though, I have never seen one in person.

Anyone one the fence about ordering might want to do so soon.  My wife and I are expecting our second child at the end of September, and that's going to slow me down considerably.
