In preparation of getting my Jtag and putting mame on it, and the fact that i will never get round to building the arcade machine that i want, I am making an arcade joystick for the 360 using a wireless joypad.
All is good, got the joystick mapped, got my design all set and all the buttons connected with the exception of the left and right triggers
On the underside of the joypad pcb there are 3 solder points for each trigger. Does anyone know which 2 points to use? _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

Hi Hobbs
That was the guide i used to solder the joystick, start/back/power, sholder and colored buttons. I want 8 buttons on mine so need to soler the trigger buttons also which have three solder points each.
Been reading up and i need to solder to 2 of them, the third is not needed. When i get it done i'll post some pics. _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.
