Hit Box - We so S Tier1!

Hi @JohnGrimm

(2) What kind device of the Xbox One Hit Box play on PC windows? like as USB keyboard or gamepad ??
Thanks…

been had asking for a PCB pic since before it came out lol
Please give the people what they want!

Hi Everyone!

Just wanted to give a shout-out, as the first Hitbox user in Nigeria. B)

I’m a PC gamer & I’ve always used the keyboard for fighting games. Got my PS3/Xbox360/PC Hitbox through a friend that came in from the US on March 2015. Took me about 3-4 months or so to get comfortable. Probably took me this long because I had to change config from “triple Heavy medium light” to “light medium heavy triple”. Had to re-learn how to use Blanka because the input for Electricity changed. Also, had to get used to releasing back when charging “back-forward” inputs, because you didn’t have to release back on keyboard. But hey, I gained new shortcuts like the walking ultra tech and ease of doing instant air attacks. Lol

It has been a fun experience altogether. I don’t regret the decision. I now play competitively, more than ever. Don’t have to be going places with my laptop just to play SF or MK with my friends. Lol

Suggestions

  1. It would be nice to see the next generation of hitboxes come with headphone/microphone jacks.
  2. Producers should welcome artistic customization requests from buyers, even if it’ll come at a cost.
  3. future hitboxes should have a soft bump on the down button and on the light kick**(A)** or light punch**(X)** button, similar to how the keyboard has a bump on letters F & J. Took me a while to stop missing the finger placement/position on the hitbox after I just got it.
  4. an LED indication to show it’s connected and working. Or better still, back-lit buttons? B)

Questions

  1. will my current hitbox work with the xbox1 if I use a cronusmax/titan one with it (without any time out limitations)?
  2. will the xbox1 hitbox work with a ps4 if I use a cronusmax/titan one with it (without any time out limitations)?
  3. does the xbox1 hitbox work on PC?

Thanks

As far as your suggestions, they’ve heard all that a million times and it will come as a significant cost increase to include any additional ports, features, etc.

For your questions, 1, 2 are dependant on the converter. There is only a timeout on the ps4 and that is dependant on the converter itself.
3. Yes, you need the M$ drivers.

This is assuming the Hit Box does not use a MS made Xbox One game pad PCB but a 3rd party PCB

Sort of. It will work, but the RT and LT buttons will not respond. As based off every other 3rd party Xbox One Arcade controller.
This is not the Fault of the people at Hit Box but how Microsoft does their drivers for Xbox One controllers. And Microsoft refuses to fix this issue saying its not their concern.

Unless you are a HUGE Xbox One player I would not get a Xbox One version of the Hit Box (or any arcade controller).
If you want PC compatibility stick with PS3 or PS4 controllers. The PCB that Hitbox been using for the PS3 only version of their controller is PC compatible. This is the same with their PS3/Xbox 360 version of their controller.

If you are looking for a converter for use with the PS4 console I have to recommend the Brook converter. So far they are the only ones that manage to almost impress me.
Keep in mind the last PS4 firmware update has broken Brook converter compatibility, but Brook quickly responded with a firmware fix for their own adapters. I wouldn’t touch the Titan One or Cronusmax with a 11 foot pole.

Actually the MKX pad LT and RT buttons work on PC in X1 mode. Other ones do not work (MCZ TE2, etc.)

Thanks for the reply guys.

Congrats on the PS4 hitbox guys

Can we please get some pics and specs of the PCBs you’re using in the PS4 and XB1 Hitboxes?

Sorry for the lack of fanfare for this one, I wasn’t home to drum up a picture and a sales pitch.

More information will be coming for the PS4 Hit Box in the coming months.

Yay, just pre-ordered my PS4 hitbox. I hope they come in black though. Black is more sexy :slight_smile:

Far out…ordering one next paycheck

what PCB is it using?

+1

Our own.

U=lp
I=mp
O=hp
J=lk
K=mk
L=hk

Any reason why you deliberately won’t post pics of it or provide further details? I’ve asked like 5 times in here.

Danke.

Because we don’t want to go into it. Maybe in the future we’ll go over them, but for now they’re created by us for our product and we’re not so ready to tell everyone about it.

I mean it’s not like your secrets will be exposed as all MS PCBs need a security chip; not asking for code or costs or whatever, just a picture and whether or not it’s common ground

Not like I can’t just get a hold of one from a customer and post in tech talk myself. Would just be nice to have one and at least have that one question answered beforehand.

There’s a snapshot in the other thread vicko.

It’s the same design style that some of the chinese boards have for 360 that you guys have come across. Main board with little board that actually does the security/USB.

Dollars to donuts it’s identical to the PS variant PCB.

It also appears to be CG.
