Official 'Kitty' class boards thread

Oh god. This thread gives me such a raging brainer.

I cannot wait to get mah grubby mits on one of these.

Literally installed my ChImp last week :sweat:

Wouldn’t be able to cop durring the beta phase, but I’m all over this once the full release happens.

Sorry - I think my browser must be broken. This thread has only had 42 views since it’s creation?!? It should be into the hundreds…

any pics of the kitty?

Production models are red. :slight_smile:

I really wish I had an immediate use for these, just to play around with it :frowning:
Maybe if I buy a VLX? (Unlikely lol)

Ooooh red is purrrrrty!!!

I need a VLX one now!

ooohhh purrty. will be ordering once chad gets a hold of em. thanks toodles, win once again.

“Ultima Ratio Regum”? The last arugment of Kings?

When this is available to the masses; dual modder’s income will plummet!

This is pure win!

Well, I’m glad I haven’t used my MC Cthulu yet.

Now I can just buy one of these babies and save my Cthulu for a project box or something. :smiley:

Nope. In the end, people still hate messing with wires.

Good shit Toodles. I wish I’d known about this sooner. Gummo showed me one this weekend and I thought I was either going to drool or cream my pants. Possibly both. If I can help in any way, please let me know.

Well, for TE’s, I think people unsure of their ability (people without ‘the knack’) may want a tech to do it, but once I get the guide up, they’ll have a much better idea of what it will take. The really nice thing as got to be FOR the techs that do installs. It has GOT to make the install time way short, especially if they have spare TE pcbs ready ahead of time. Hook up the ribbons and the Kitty->TE USB wires so all you need to do to mod someone stick is cut the USB wire, unplug the existing ribbons, screw down/solder the four USB wires, plug and done.

Now the VLX one, nah, you dont even need the knack for that. They’ve been field tested with 4 out of 5 autistic chimpanzee’s getting it first try, and that fifth chimpanzee was busy in training mode for Dark Phoenix combos. Stupid simple install.

Speaking of which, its a good sign when your first install of all production parts goes swimmingly. I just put one into a MvC2 TE, taking pictures all of the way, so I have pictures to go with the instructions for the install guide I’m writing. Doing the same for the VLX will be like 5 minutes, tops, taking pictures all of the way.

hrm… TE kitty work in an SE?
i mean i think the round 1 TEs and SEs probably have the same or similar ribbon cables/connections…

they have the exact same pcb.

Is it possible to remove a 360 PCB from a 360 SE, put it in a PS3 TE and have it daisy chain with a Kitty TE?

Everything will work fine, but you’re probably going to want the LED daughterboard from the SE as well, so you’d end up having the white plastic LED/Guide/Turbo section on the black TE case.

Well, that’s if you can remove the daughterboard cover from the SE. I’m not 100% on that part but I think you can.

Toodles. Is there a way to tell if the FW has been updated w/o trying it in another machine? I went over to a buddies and tried installing the new FW with no avail.
