Re: 2 Joysticks?



 Greetings

     I recently acquired a double adapter for just this purpose. Basically it
has a DB15 female plug attached to a small board with a 16 pin IC plug either
side each with different size capacitors to split the two joysticks to be
recognized. If you can get the parts it would be an easy task to make one for
your self.

    You wouldn't need to make the board up just link up the correct pin outs
with the pin ins and slot the caps in where needed. This could be applied to
either IC sockets or mail DB15 plugs.

     If anyone is interested I'll post a list of pin in-outs and capacitor
values with where they need to be spliced in.
