is there a list of Rys usb adaptor compatible joysticks/game pads around?
Hi
I have 2 Rys II Usb to 9 oin adaptors. The one plugged into the mouse port works without a hitch and I can use whatever usb mouse I want on my A1200. The one plugged into the joystick port does not. It refuses to recognise any of the usb joysticks I have tried. (Which is so far a xbox contoller and Saltek joystick). Does anyone know if there is a list of compatible usb joysticks/gamepads available for the Rys II? The blurb suggests that they should just work after you press buttons 9 and 10, which is not my experiance at all. I know that the joystick port on the Amiga is working as it accepts a 9pin Zipstick. Thanks in advance. |

Yep, the manufacturer has a list on this page. Apparently wireless 360 controllers don't work, but I don't know about wired ones. And there's a Saitek listed as compatible so I'd expect that to work.
Bear in mind however that Zipsticks and other standard joysticks don't need a +5V power supply, so they'll work fine even if the +5V supply to the port has failed, whereas "intelligent" things like the Rys need +5V. So that's a possibility. Have you tried the controller as player 2 on something in the mouse socket? Or tried a mouse in the other port? Have you swapped over the two Rys adaptors? I've seen the +5V supply fail due to a failed protection resistor on the A1200, so it's a distinct possibility. |

Ive swapped the adaptors around so know both work, and plugged the mouse into the joy port where the Rys recognised it so I have 5 volts there. I guess its just a compatibility issue. I had no idea that so few josticks and pads were compatible. |

XBox360 controllers have issues as they are primarily XInput. So until such a driver is written not going to happen. As for Saitek never used one so can't comment

Hi, all! I have the Rys MKII adapter and I'm trying to connect through it my Thrustmaster Dual Power 3 gamepad. It doesn't works. However usb-mouse works fine. So, I'm looking for supported devices list (mostly gamepads) for this adapter.
Unfortunately, there are no more such a list on the original site (I've tried to find it by the link above). May be anyone has it? |

Highly recommend the iBuffalo, it's cheap yet good quality. My go-to pad for gaming on real Amiga and emulators.

Rys also works fine with a real SNES pad+USB adapter.

I can't confirm the Mayflash or Raphnet USB adapter (don't have them) but the one from Tomee works perfectly fine for me.

Rys MKII + 8Bitdo usb wireless + 8bitdo controller?
Anyone tried the following combination? If so, did it work?
Rys MKii on an Amiga joystick port. 8bitdo usb wireless adapter (https://shop.8bitdo.com/products/8bi...c-raspberry-pi) in the Rys USB port Control the Amiga with an 8bitdo wireless controller. I have 2 8bitdo controllers and 2 Rys MKIIs, so wondering whether to get me these wireless adapters. Wired they work! So connecting the controller with a USB cable to the Rys Mkii. Guess I'm gonna take the plunge and buy 1 wireless adapter and if it works a second one Last edited by spudje; 09 February 2021 at 14:50. |

Update. I can confirm the 8bitdo wireless adapters work. At least on my CD32 (I read somewhere the CD32 has more power on the db9 than regular Amigas). I tried it with a 8Bitdo SN30Pro (not the plus) and a PS4 dual shock. Both work great but the button mapping is very weird. I'm not the only one noticing this: http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...1&postcount=15
So it would be cool if @spidi / 7-bit hardware could update the firmware. Or maybe allow custom button mapping, maybe with hex editing a firmware? I realise now I have another option as well. I have a Brook PS2 adapter, which I can also use on a PC via USB instead of PS2 connector. So maybe also on the Rys. So that's the next test project https://www.brookaccessory.com/detail/44237976/ Last edited by spudje; 17 February 2021 at 11:30. |

Mmm, the brook adapter works button wise, but not D-Pad wise. I assume it requires too much power, not being provided by the CD32/Rys MkII.

I have the Retrobit Sega Saturn pad in the 2.4ght version, unfortunately it doesn't work on the Rys II. Is there a current list of controllers that run in CD32 mode somewhere? Would be very helpful for me.
