Undamned's USB Decoders (USB to JAMMA, etc.)!

[ERR0RMACR0]

Is there any hope of Xbox One or PS4 arcade stick support from the UD-USB?

Yeah, I’d really like to get to that this year.

That would be awesome–I’d definitely pick up a couple for creating Quad Mod converters.

Where can I purchase a plastic case like that?

[FattyWinnarz]

It came out very well and I’m shipping it to Broly tomorrow.

I did have a couple of questions though:
-Is it possible to change when the triggers will activate if i’m using a normal controller? they have to be pretty well pushed down for them to activate. it’d be nice if i could fine tune that.
-do you think a flash update to support xbox one or ps4 controller support is possible? i had a lot of interest from people who want to use their favorite controller for this type of mod.

Thanks!

that is just beautifully simple. Great word dude.

i can ship you one if you like, just PM me. If you have any friends with a 3d printer, i can just send you the file too and you can get it done locally.

Thanks man
A lot of thought went into it. I actually had a lot of interest in this mod from my local scene. i’m going to make a quad mod with the xbox and sony mkx pads for my friend tattoo chris. that should be a fun one. also had a friend that plays a lot of ps2 games and wants to use his stick on modern consoles, so i’m going to use Laugh’s PSX to JAMMA board on that one. Laugh’s board doesn’t support the guide button so i’m going to have to mount that externally.

I tested the pdp MKX ps4/ps3 pad with the decoder. It recognized the pad in ps3 mode.

Good to know!

@undamned I also tested the Hori Hrap 4 kai and Hori Kuro VLX. When they are set to ps3 mode they are also recognized by the decoder.

just bought 4 of these bad boys for a top secret project.

You might also look into Toodles’ FGW (Fighting Game Widget) Converter. It’s a $15 DIY kit and can decode Playstation 1/2 as well as Sega Saturn. Purchase/info: http://godlikecontrols.com/

You forgot SNES.

So… Jasen is MIA and I was wondering if anyone around here knows if the pinout of the DB15 version of the UD USB Decoder is compatible with the JCC SuperGun… He wires the DB15 so they can use a Neo Geo controller or his Panser line of joysticks. I tried my best to find the pinouts for these devices online to no avail. This pic on thesupergun.com is the only lead I have on the JCC SuperGun pinout. Is it the same for the UD? I read of someone frying one because it was wired incorrectly. I don’t wanna repeat that mistake. Any help appreciated! Thanks!

Not MIA, just deployed with limited access; being MIA is actually a very scary thing for me being on a military deployment…

My SuperGuns are all wired (if you bought it from me direct) to match the NEO-GEO Pinout (exactly like you linked above, that graphic was borrowed from Laugh at ettoki.com and reposted on my thesupergun.com website for quick reference) with the additional button 5/6 pins. The UD-USB DB15 pinout should mate up with ease. When UD and I discussed it last, they were compatible pinouts; i doubt he would change it.

//OT

I have revamped the MK30 ADCAP to have an interchangeable front panel so that the end user can use DB15s, Wireless via Morpheus, or UD-USB (thanks UD for collaborating on it!) as well as a few other fun updates to make builds faster.

Hey UD, Would it be possible to post a link to the manual PDF in the first post? I had to refresh my brain on the player LED jumper config when I got the Screw terminal version by digging into an email I got a year ago.

Good call. I’ve not been good about keep that stuff easily found! Now under “Resources” in the OP! I also have a manual specifically for the 15 Pin version that I need to put up.

I’d love to know if this will work with a 360 Hori Fighting Edge. For all intents and purposes I don’t see why it wouldn’t but I am curious.

[Gummo]

It does

[triple_lei]

Heya, so I bought two of these on a whim, one of which is reserved for a Hori Fighting Commander 4 pad hack.

The other one, I’m still undecided on what to use it for. Would I be able to pair the decoder with an AXISDapter from Toodles and use my FightStick on PSP games via PSPgo or PlayStation TV? (which I guess is more of an AXISDapter question than a decoder question, but…)

Other ideas I had floating around was pairing the decoder with that old Mad Catz Dreamcast controller that I had for proper VMU support (I don’t like playing on the 2P side!), or pairing it with a Genesis controller so I could use my stick on an Atari 2600.

Any reason why any of those ideas wouldn’t work?

2 Caveats to remember for any of these applications are:

1. You need 5V to power the Decoder. On older systems like the Genesis, you probably already have 5V at the gamepad, but for other systems you will need to find another 5V source.
2. Different systems have different Pull Up voltages on the button/direction signals, for example, the Genesis is probably a 5V pull up and PS3 is a 3V pull up. The UD-USB Decoder Screw Terminal version has a Jumper that must be changed to match the desired Pull Up voltage.

• As far as the PSPgo/PSTV, Provided the PS3 controller can connect to the PSPgo or PSTV via Bluetooth and you have a 5V power source for the decoder, yeah, I don’t see why not. I don’t know anything about controls on PSPgo or PSTV.

• I don’t know if the Dreamcast has 5V available anywhere, so you may have to have an external 5V source (cell phone charger would probably work fine).

• Regarding the Genesis controller, if that already works on Atari 2600, then sure!

[FourStringL0B0]
