Hey! I'm working on a small project of making fight sticks for the original Xbox, using Microsoft s-type controllers. I have gotten a few right the first time, but this fourth one has been a recurring nightmare! I have probably gone through four failed attempts and each seems to fail in the same manner: when plugged into the Xbox they seem to be sending a constant [up] signal. When the controller is plugged into a different machine outside of any fight stick apparatus it works fine, but as soon as I bring it to my test machine, it seems to fail. I do need to test without any microswitches attached, but it seems that I am consistently doing something wrong on the controller as it does not matter which port I am in, nor are the results replicated with a different controller PCB in the same apparatus.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues? I apologize if I missed a key post which may lead me to success, but I have been googling up frustration all week, and I'm hoping someone in this community might be able to assist my search.
thank you, in advance, for your help--
I will be back soon :)
