using a PC joystick/gamepad ??
« on: February 23, 2003, 08:57:40 AM »
I'm sure this has been discussed b4, but I found no reference of it by searching the site.

I'm just looking for a way to use old 2-4 buttons joysticks, such as Gravis gamepad and Logitech WingMan.

That would be DB15<=>DB10

Any solution would do : Either and adapter cable, or the shematics needed to build such a cable.

Thank you very much !

PS - in the top10 gamelist, I'm quite puzzled by the absence of "Arcade Pool", a GREAT game by team 17, that was a gift of an efficient code, ran on ALL Amigas, adapting itself to the HW (AGA-capable, yes!) And, most of all, truly SHINING gameplay !

I managed to get another PC joystick adaptor from Forematt only a few months ago. Try them. They probably won`t have any in stock, but they managed to get me one from somewhere. Its a shame we can`t get them fromwhere I got my first one. I got it from a shop. :cry:
