Hey! Thanks for the great tutorial. I’ve been modding for the past couple of days and it seems to have gone smoothly. Everything went relatively smoothy and we started putting the case back together and hot glued all the components together. Once we started playing with the fight stick, it would randomly switch between it’s actual function (lk,lp,mp,fw,fp,rh) and would somehow activate turbo of that button coming out with no input within the game (for the xbox controller.) as well as randomly turning having the controller turn on and off. Now the PS3 side works perfectly fine – but the mad catz controller seems to be giving me and my friends difficulty. we alivated the random off and on that the controller was suffering by changing out the the dual throw switch and soldering onto the switch itself, but it still has the random turbo activation and input drops.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
if it helps – my set up is a
TE PS3 version mad catz fightstick
mad catz 4716 fight pad. I don’t know if there’s anything else worth mentioning
Did you by chance wire the trigger buttons? If you did that might be the cause of the problem. You need to add a hex inverter to it. The pads need to be wired in a specific way before the mod. If you did let me know. I did not do my triggers, but I will do some research and figure out what went wrong with your pad. I just need the year of the pad you bought. It should be on the case itself
Try disconnecting the triggers and see what happens if you did not put a hex inverter.
Also check this out and see if you are wired exactly like this. Let me know your results.
