Hit Box - We so S Tier1!

So is it even going to be possible to update the existing firmware on these newer boards without using the share button? Are they looking at a possible recall to enable a firmware update?

@Helwolfe
Sorry, the bootloader function wasn’t change via USB, it must to use a special writer

Anyone know approximately how much actuation force is on the default directional sanwa buttons that comes with the hitbox?

Looking for something a little more sensitive, thanks!

Force required=/=Sensitivity, and you’re not gonna find anything lighter or more sensitive than OBSF buttons for 24mm buttons at least.

I already have a Hitbox, but I can’t get it to work with my Dreamcast. Do you have an extra Akishop PS360+ PCB that has the second highest firmware [L+R=N, D+U=U, and has the Dreamcast functionality, etc…]? I’ve tried to update it and can’t get it to update.

Also, does the PS4 version work on Dreamcast?

Has anyone converted a vlx to a hitbox setup?

go to the Hori VLX thread

Yes. There are definitely panel replacements for it.

@sasquach

Aww really? Was hoping for something for a lil more options =/

I got my ps4 hitbox from hitboxarcade but windows says it doesn’t work on usb 3.0 ports, and my computer is only 3.0 ports. I tried searching for a legacy bios that might be disabled but no luck on that part. I ordered a 2.0 hub but if that doesn’t work am I shit out of luck?

answered on reddit

enjoy

can someone hook me up with a template with distances between buttons?
I’d like to cad from there and customize…all I can find is .psd templates

so convert, measurements are the same lol

no measure on these .psd

For those having issues with the triggers always being held, here’s some background and the fix:

For whatever reason, the breakout board used with the brook pcb inverts the signals for L2 and R2. I dunno if the resistors went bad or what but I ended up bypassing them and rewiring the 2 red wires to ground after I cut the trace to Vcc.

I applied this fix at AB7 so I don’t have the board in front of me anymore, but you can do what I did here (again, I don’t remember what’s what, so just do exactly as I did as well as cut the trace like I did).

I’m getting a URL signature expired on that last image Vicko.

Super excited to maybe have a working hitbox for weekly locals, if this saves me I’ll owe you big time!

Which wire is the trace to vcc?

Looking to purchase a Hitbox but wanted to know if post-June Hitboxes still have the 8min timeout problem. Asking here since the official site has had no update since July.

I’m going to assume yes on that one Mecha-Shiva, I bought a PS4 hitbox right at the end of june and was left waiting for firmware ever since.
