I am not sure about x360ce (or any other kind of XInput wrapper) causing any noticeable lag, but it doesn’t sound like SF5 is going to have native DirectInput support on release, no. MadCatz recent tweets indicate that they’re trying to get a firmware update going for their SF5 sticks to give them an XInput mode, and Capcom may have DirectInput support in the works but neither sound like things that are happening by the 16th.
Just use x360ce my friend. That’s what I used
No one ever answered this for me, but my X1 Hitbox arrived today so I figured I’d answer it myself in case others were curious about the definitive answer:
- The Hitbox is recognized as an Controller (XBOX One for Windows) in W10
- LT and RT seem to register as full axis travel on the triggers when pressed
- In USF4 on Steam, the controller is recognized as a default controller (360/X1 icons) and all 8 face buttons register normally
- Side note, but the 3 menu buttons (Start/Back/Xbox) on this stick are much stiffer buttons compared to the other two Hitboxes I own (which use Sanwas that aren’t any stiffer than the 24mm ones on the face). I work on mechanical keyboards and these feel very much like ~45g actuation buttons (they are basically MX Blue switches in force required). I actually like this, but it just wasn’t something I was expecting, and I’m not sure Sanwa even makes a switch this stiff. Maybe they do and I’m ignorant to it.
Dort the artwork is attached to the plexi so you need a new plexi piece
Just to make sure, this is the Brooks Converter (http://www.focusattack.com/brook-ps3-ps4-fight-board-pcba/)?
Or would you recommend the Universal converter: http://www.paradisearcadeshop.com/home/1658-brook-universal-fighting-board-ps3-ps4-xbox-360-xbox-one-pc-.html
Do both of these work with regular arcade sticks as well?
yes and yes
basically a drop in replacement for ps360+ (ufb or PS4 FB with breakout board)
I’ve been having issues running the Hitbox on PC. Doing a straight plug ‘n’ play does not work, the device is not detected. Only when holding the Select(?) button does the device register as a P4 gamepad, but this is where the major issues start. It is not detected in any games at all, running it in x360ce works fine HOWEVER a lot of the buttons are switched around, as well as having a LONG delay when pressing the buttons. I’ve uploaded a short video demonstrating this issue. I should mention that it works flawlessly on the PS3/PS4 with no apparent issues.
What exactly speaks against doing the dp shortcut with df df? I’ve been practicing for a week now and I’m not that consistent with doing dps quickly on both sides yet. But I realized why not just quickly press both buttons at once (df df) for a dp? The chance of missing that ever should be pretty slim. Is there a downside?
For shortcuts on DP, I usually just hold forward, tap down and then either punch or kick.
Download anti micro. I’ve been playing with hitbox on every PC beta so far with literally zero problems. The last one, I just had to run anti micro as admin and it worked. IMO, anti micro is the best free 3rd party software for getting your stick to work with PC. Super easy to use. You just click on the key and map it to the button on the stick.
I’m getting the new madcatz tes+ though, so if anyone knows someone that wants a hitbox, pm me. I’m trying to sell it now.
trading a ps3/xbox 360 hitbox for someone to buy me this http://www.amazon.com/Real-Arcade-Pro-3-SA-Playstation-3/dp/B002FL0T8U . The $118 used one. i cant use amazon and paypal so i figured this would be an easy way to do it. message me for deets.
I mean, I hate to be that guy, but this isn’t the trading post and I would appreciate it if you guys didn’t post sell requests in this thread.
sorry bout that, i posted in the trading post as well but i figured someone browsing this thread may want it.
JohnGrimm is right, selling is prohibited in Tech Talk
It doesn’t take very long to get used to. The main problem is that you were probably just overthinking the inputs while playing. I had that issue initially, and kept screwing up down/back constantly. Took about two weeks for it to become second nature. I still can’t do 360 motions with buttons though. I know they are technically “faster”, but it never, ever feels natural. It feels more like doing Tekken inputs for moves that are circular by nature. I was all excited when Capcom (lied!) said that 360 motions would not exist in SF5, and Zangief yet again still has them. It probably won’t remain exclusive to him either, and it will suck if Alex has them too. It would be one thing to practice enough to reliably get a single 360 down, but a 720? Yeah right.
I placed an order for an Xbox One version 3 days ago
I have yet to receive a tracking number
Does it usually take this long for the package to dispatch? My order number is #3824
It can take a bit. Just be patient.
OMG!
last night i was trying for hours to get my hitBOX working on street fighter v on pc. i tried xpadder (even paid for it lol), x360ce and joytokey… . nothing worked, or at least not with my second controller plugged in at the same time.
so now im just browsing randomly through this tech section and the third thing i read is: “hm, yeah…just hold the y-button while plugging the hitBOX in, it will register as xbox 360 controller…”. i didnt find this anywhere else on google.
that solved the problem immediately for me!!! i cant remember that there was a paper with the hitBOX in the box when i bought it where it had listed this kind of commands (i assume there are more).
well, thanks anyway for the hint (omg)
You could have just googled the ps360+ manual
it seems that “ps360+” is the hardware/software that runs in my hitBOX. well…as a normal consumer i dont know that kind of things. im living in germany and just wanted an arcade controller with buttons instead of a lever (sry, i dont know the correct term, but i think you know what i mean).
there is no way to buy such things in germany or europe as far as i know, so i imported it from the USA. all things that sold the hitBOX to me were “compatible with xbox360, ps3, pc” (and the buttons of course).
anyway…
i didnt want to complain. i was just very suprised that the solution to my problem which i spent hours on trying to solve was in the end so simple 
Anyone have a hitbox arcade template ?
