Thread: Anyone using XIM/FragFX/FRAGnSTEIN?

My friend used something similar and he allways owned me at cod4

Righty then, I've now got all the bits I need so should hopefully have it build by monday (off to my dads tomorrow to use his soldering iron/multimeter!)

Venom PS2->PS3 (USB) adaptor;


PS2 cable (ripped from a faulty PS2 pad);


Silicon Labs Toolstick USB development kit;


...and a gutted PS2 pad (for use as an enclosure). I've glued all the buttons/sticks in place just to make it look cooler!


I just hope I can get the software to run on a Mac (WinXP via VirtualBox). Don't really want to use Bootcamp...I removed it a month or two ago when I figured I could just use VirtualBox for the few times I actually needed to run Windows.

Anyhoo, expect an update on monday with piccys of the completed setup and a brief review with my initial tests...

In a word; no. It's all setup ok, my soldering job is fine and the software reports an update rate of 58/sec with no errors so you'd think it'd work ok, but no.
Having asked on the XIM forum the only possible problem they can see is that I'm using a Mac to run the software. However, I'm running it through WindowsXP (via Bootcamp), which has apparently been confirmed as a working option, just not in my case. I'm currently waiting for one of my housemates to get a new laptop so I can borrow it and test further.
