Something has to be wrong with the DC adaptor itself I guess, even though it sends a signal maybe its not sending a switch signal. Also, why would you remove the side buttons and use those to rewire the stick? Just use the original 4 that they give you.
Some of the wiring wasn’t exactly long enough. So I used to extra wire on the connects that require to wires to be crimped onto one microswitch.
I guess something must be wrong with the DC Adapter. As it works fine with the xbox.
Though they say that their sticks are indestructible, the quality of their adapters suck. On mine the Serial cable part of the adapter gets disconnected even if it’s pushed down slightly or if it’s at an angle.
When it does that does the RED Light on it turn off to signal that its disconnecting or does it stay red all the time?
If it’s disconnected the power gets disconnected too so yeah.
Interesting. My Red light remains on but the Joystick remains unresponsive. Maybe I should give X-Arcade an email.
Emailed X-Arcade. They sent me a replacement adapter and told me to tell them what happens. The new one works fine. So I guess it was a problem with the adapter.
Alright, good thing it was just an adapter problem. Also, I live right outside of philly, we should get some games on.

Does the IL Eurostick swap in with no extra work besides switching to .25" QDs? I already replaced the buttons on mine, but I was thinking of swapping the sticks down the line and maybe closing up the two bottom buttons.
The IL Eurostick swaps right in. Just remove the stock X-Arcade Sticks and put in the IL Euro Sticks. You have to rewire though. The IL Euro uses 22 Gauge Quick Disconnects while the stock X-Arcade use smaller connects. So after installing the stick you have to cut the ends of the wires off and replace the connects with the new connects.
So after unplugging the wires from the X-Arcade sticks and removing them. I cut off the ends and used a wire crimper for the 22 Gauge Quick Disconnects. Put in the IL Euro’s, connect the switches and boom you’re done.
The Happs buttons and IL Euro’s are a lot better. There really is not going back.
I live in Newtown which is in Buckscounty.
does it hgave the default xarcade pcb in it? If so, then swap it out for a ps1 pad and use a converter as xarcades do all kinds of weird shit and lag a lot.
Hmmm…
I never really have experienced ANY lag with my X-arcade on my dreamcast. I admit that there is a little on the Playstation especially with MVC2. The Side Buttons Toggle between the D-Pad and Joystick on the controller with the adapter for dreamcast.

I got family who live in Newtown. Lot of big houses around there, not much else.
I only live 30 minutes away from you.
Well what else would you find in Suburbia 
Not bad. Maybe over summer or something we could catch some games.
Here was my collection last summer its expanded a lot more since.
Haha sweet, You’re pretty much into both franchises, but I’m more a SF guy. But CVS2 will solve that problem.
Yes wierd crap does happen and its annoying. I do want to swap out the PCB but I’m a nervous noob about doing so. X-Arcade has been my test guinea pig for stick building as it affords you tons of errors. Its basically my learning experience. But since its a dual wouldn’t I need two PCB’s? I’m really nervous about soldering or whatever I have to do. But after I complete it I probably will delve into make a lot of sticks. I wish there was someone in my area that could do this for me or give me hands on step by step help. Just reading guides and following them is nerve racking some of the time because you get no immediate feed back 
I’d also like to put some artwork on the it. But what can you get to fit the entire front of this big thing? and how does one get the wholes through the clear plastic sheets? I imagine some tool or something. Essentially meaning something I have no access too. I wish I could just ship this off and have someone else do it
Oh and I’m looking at the custom stick thread. I see people with most of their sticks having PS1 cables. But I also seen sticks that have those computer cables in the back with the metal connector that has the ends twist things. Essentially I need to know the best options and I’m searching for an X-Arcade Mod thread now.
