Title: Bliss box for Arcade cabs
Post by: syntax_x on May 10, 2017, 11:47:01 am

After much thought and effort the developer of Blissbox has made a matched arcade mode.

Now you can hack a PS2 or Wii Classic controller (or use a PS2 or Wii-Classic fighting stick) connect it up to Blissbox and have the freedom to play your favourite classics on universal maps.
If you use a PS2 the analog button will send X/Y to D-pad.
If you use a Wii-Classic the home button will report as HID

If you prefer using X and []  as your primary buttons instead of O and X when playing 2 button games simply press all face buttons and start. This will rotate the face buttons until you unplug the controller.
To enter Arcade mode hold X-[]-Start and d-pad Left.
To save Arcade mode hold X-[]-Start for 3 seconds.


Things that differ from regular mode:-

-4 face button controllers rotated to match 6 button controllers.
-6 button controllers remapped to flow onto R1 R2
-Sega Saturn shoulders now report as L1 L2, this gives the Saturn more uses as a 6 button controller.

-All D-pads now report as HID inputs.

Here are a few examples of the new controller HID maps.

Question: How many Bliss Boxes have been sold?

Short answer, 100% more units than KADE miniConsole+ lolz

But seriously, how the hell should I know?

Pretty stupid question to be asking a tester. What's your motive?

Blissbox also seem to be a porn site so don't go googling it the just reflexively clicking on the first link in public.

I did exactly the same thing when I first heard about it :laugh2:

I think I typed bliss box 4 play into Google and was a little shocked by the results.

The actual website is http://skunx7.wixsite.com/bliss-box (http://skunx7.wixsite.com/bliss-box)

Hmm...what is my motive...to find out how many of the Bliss Boxes have been sold perhaps?  A simple I don't know would have sufficed, but kids today have no manners.  ::)
