Hello,

Thanks for the e-mail.

We have heard problems with the pad using the XBOX-USB adaptor because
Microsoft has not made an drivers for it yet so it is not noticable. You can
use it wi ...

ok, just a redo for all of those not keeping up with both threads.

Red Octane Ignition Dual Platform pad (apparently all dual platform pads will not work with a simple USB cable made from scratch ...

I thought about that, but the problem is that I'm using a soft pad... it's an Ignition 2.0

I'm not really comfortable tearing the thing open and wiring up extra crap to it if it's working perfectly ...

well I popped an e-mail off to red octane to see if they have any ideas on why an adapter doesn't seem to work with the dual platform pads.

*sigh*
I've successfully installed drivers to get my gamepad working... and it works perfectly.
If it's faulty, then it wouldn't work...

Regardless, I found out that the problem is my pad. I've ...

if the device doesn't show up to the computer, all the drivers in the world aren't going to fix it.

well, it isn't exactly rocket science to make an xbox adapter.. take one of the breakaway ends off a dead controller (or buy a spare breakaway for $5), chop off the end, and wire it into a USB cable. ...

well, like an idiot, I posted in the console forum without looking here first... since that'll be locked fairly soon I imagine, I'll just paste it here.

I wasn't really sure where to put this one, so I figured this was the best fit. Feel free to move it as needed.

Anyway, I finally decided to make an Xbox to USB cable for the sole use of playing ...

thanks, you saved me the trouble of digging up my old electronics books and trying to whip up a circuit myself.

Now that I've got some ideas for how to do this.. I just need the money to buy the ma ...

I've actually seen aftermarket xbox controllers with EL wire ran around the inside of it. That stuff has a fairly low power drain... hmm.. I think I just got an idea

hmm.. what about using microswitches to mimmick the action of the custom switches? I'm not sure how well they'd hold up to the stress though.

what do the arcade pads use?

I don't see why anyone could possibly be offended by this sort of stereotype. I mean, honestly... Asians are better coordinated and better at math! Wow.. that's so mean! And black men have enormous. ...

well, I'm still working out the design I'm going to use, but so far I do have one thing figured out for sure. The board is going under the center square. That way, all the wireing to the buttons wil ...

the same thing happens to me when I do a lot of hiking. Your body breaks down fat for energy, so it doesn't need outside sources as much. After a while, you just start to use what you put into your ...

yeah, it's for the xbox live headset. Mine didn't fit though, I had to shave the rubber off one side to get it to plug in all the way. Just a heads up.

why not spray some sort of clear coat over it? a couple layers of polyurethane should keep it shiney.

holy crap those are huge contacts. Well, I know what I'm using to power my metal pad when I make it. Wow.
