i have the ITG ones posted in here somewhere

to get them printed, you can go to kinkos, or print them on 2 sheets of paper and put them together.

Nothing beats the arcades IMO. If anything just use the StepMania arcade versions and find the home version packs if you really wanted.

Personally, I like Extreme Arcade the best. The home versions ...

Man, if only I wasn't broke now, I'd totally try to get ALL those pads.(PIU and DDR) -___- ...especially since I live in Texas, so yeah, stupid money!

Glad you got them working, but you also cou ...

The easiest way to get it to work (without lights) would just be to use a ps1 controller and rewire the sensors to the d-pad.

I think trying to mess with the main boards would be much harder.
Also ...

Since you said you are new to soldering, just find an old softpad and gut it.
It's the best way to do it, trust me.

Then, drill holes in the small contacts (they are huge, so its really easy)
Fee ...

Just sent the rar with the ones...hopefully that helps you out.
I gave you X,O, blue/red/light blue/pink arrows too.

edit::here are the main pics, i have the ITG arrows also, but i dont want to up ...

Well, the center one is ground/common.

The other ones you will have to either trace through the plastic sheet....
OR
Just connect a small wire from the ground and test each spot with it plugged i ...

Yeah, I have them on my comp. Which ones do you want?

I have the ITG ones, and red/blue DDR ones (true arcade ones are more pink/blue, but changing the hue can fix it ;D)
I think I also have X O a ...

first, the ebay+ddrgame = huge POS. don't even think about it

As for the cost, if you are just building 1, the cost is maybe $130-140, and you can easily build 2 pads for $150-200 because of the 4' ...

Wow, looks really good.
You probably could have just put this in the homepad thread though.

How much did you sell it for?
What type of sheet metal did you use?

There is no way the BlueShark compresses 1/4 of an inch..even 1/8" is a little stretch.

The 3" model I played on compresses about a few millimeters, ~1/16"

If you decide on Matrix sensors, I se ...

Actually, my friend got some cheap foam pads from ebay that eventually break down, so he kept the foam and circuit boards for me..so I have about 4 or 5 (?) now.

So, you can always ask friends for ...

What about adding a very small (1/4") border of either wood or cardboard or something around the edge of the pad to lift up so it doesn't hit the buttons as much?

Well, just a tip if you end up building your own CBs: don't use a ps2 controller, instead, use old soft pad's "brains" ;D

First of all, you only need the ULDR+start+sel+XO, all of which are on the ...

The Afterburner's recession is more than *any* other machine and metal pad that I have ever played on.

It's too recessed for me, and you definitely would have trouble bracketing on the AB. (the eas ...

An easy fix for Afterburners is just to cut a new lexan panel on top of the original ones. Of course, that requires about 20 bucks and time to cut the panels (which still is cheaper than CFs)

on the arcades i've played on i thought the screws were more like the truss ones..

on my own ones i've built, i have used the round head and truss, and i prefer the truss myself.

plus, i think t ...

Yeah, some adapters can get around that by holding L+R+Select and that "unlocks" it. I never had luck with that though.

I just build my own and wire them to buttons so it doesnt matter.

If it is going to be used solely for stepmania, just get a cheap USB keypad/controller and use that.

the ps2->usb adapters are annoying to find the right one to work with no lag, etc. That's ma ...

Ah, I see the lexan panels now.

I like the Arrow design, ITG

I think that a black and white would actually look pretty cool. Maybe invert the colors on the Left/Right panels or Up/Down, whicheve ...
