I just bought the stick at my local gamestop.
Luckly, I haven’t opened it. And I have 28 days left if I want to return it.
I’m deciding wether to keep it, sell it or return it.
My questions (if you guys can help out) are,
How easy is it to mod? Is the same as the DOA stick?
Just bought this stick and having problems on trying to get it to work on MAME. Windows recognizes the stick and installs the proper drivers. When going to Control Panel-> Game controllers, the buttons/stick register and whatnot. However, it will not work on MAME.
Any help regarding this issue?
EDIT: NM. Got it to work. JoyToKey works perfectly :wgrin:
All the stores in the Boston area had no clue what I was talking about I will have to call again tomorrow. I really want one of these for Hyper Fighting.
For some reason, its showing the joystick as the hat switch, but the x and y axises are not show in the control panel. When going to a game, say AB, the game doesn’t read the hat switch and continues to scroll upwards because of the missing axises. If there was something to map the hat switch to the x and y axises, that will solve the problem most of us have.
XBCD drivers will not work for the stick. The computer recoginzes the stick at the Fighting Stick EX2 and forces the download of the microsoft drivers. But when you try to install the XBCD drivers, it won’t let you.
Just tried that, it won’t work for this stick because it identifies it as the Fighting Stick EX2, and not the DOA4 stick or a xbox 360 controller. The drivers just won’t match.
Just bought one of these and modded it with a real Sanwa JFL. It was a total pain in the ass. #1 you have to used a dremel to make it fit. #2 the Sanwa is to tall on the inside for the hori case so I had to dremel the end of the Sanwa shaft about 1/8" (sparks everywhere ) and slightly ballpin hammer the metal cover so the Sanwa wouldn’t rub the base plate. #3 you can’t used one common ground for the joystick which means you have to cut the connections from the Sanwa PCB for each ground and solder a separate ground for each direction. #4 I didn’t even try to replace the buttons because the hori PCB is directly soldered on top of the buttons with out any wires making it no fun to rewire.
Anyway… happy modding!
