works great!!

now i got to figure out how to switch the "Triangle" and "X" function.

I've got one of those PSX>USB adapters, and since its driver is DirectX based, there is no problem at all with WinUAE or any other game! Force Feedback works as well (though you need an external power supply of course, otherwise you could cause damage to your mainboard!). No latency/timing problems at all

I think I'm in love with Toni

External power supply? Damage the Mainboard?

:eek :hoo

you got me worried now. I was playing Silent Hill 2 *pc* it supports the rumble and shock mode. I didnt realize I could fry my mobo. Not sure if its DirectX biased but I know it uses the "Human Interface Device"

Works like a charm with WinUAE. Didnt realize there was force feedback in amiga games. If thats what you were refering to above.

No, I mean, the force feedback for the psx controller needs about ~400ma or something, and you can't take that from the mainboard. There for you need an external power supply (I use one 10v 0.5A from a SNES

). I can't get force feedback from Amiga games (but would it be possible to implent? like rumble some when two sprites collide?

), but i get it in about every other game that supports force feedback

And yes, your is directx based

Well, I use a digital PC Quickshot stick that is 100% the same like the Amiga version Quickshot, but with a PC gameport connector

So no doggy control like with a analogue shitstick, but accurate control with tiny ways in each direction

But fortunately I only have to play on the emu just for testing games.
If I really want to play a game then I use a real miggy with a Amiga joystick, ofcoz

I have a 380W PSU.
Am I safe now?

Or you suggest I avoid using the 'Force Feedback'?

Fackamato · 03 November 2003, 14:35

heeh, your psu doesn't matter in this case, you need an external power supply to your psx>usb pad anyway

(if you would try to take that power from the mainboard, it would break immediatley)

devilstar · 03 November 2003, 23:14

I got an USB converter and a playstation joypad. It works perfect with winuae and i didnt have to do anything at all. works even as a cd32 joypad with the extra button!! go ahead and buy one!! its worth it!!

devilstar · 03 November 2003, 23:18

by the way...

Force feedback works perfect for me without extra psu!! and i got only a standard psu @160watts....

my usb converter comes from Rockbridge.

Fackamato · 03 November 2003, 23:38

Ah I was thinking back in the old days when you made your own psx>lpt-adapter ( i made one

), then you couldn't take any power from the parallell port. but now it's usb, so i guess that's where your controller gets its power from. (my RockFire still needs external battery eliminator)
