RedOctane Ignition v3.0 (PS/Xbox/PC)

ChiyoDad · Posted: Mon Aug 14, 2006 5:31 pm Post subject: Went through 3 in a month

We're about to return our third RedOctane Ignition mat this evening to Best Buy.

Since Best Buy is standing by the product with its return policy, I'm still planning to exchange it for another Ignition. But does anyone have any other suggestions for a better soft pad?[/b]

try a regular konami soft pad and add foam underneath...maybe some puzzle foam.

You can put me on the list for being ripped off too. Just got it from Best Buy the other day. And I thought I was really sucking, since I was faling everything. Then I realized that the down arrow wasn't responding at all. Plus it was all wrinkled up. So yeh, I'm gonna go get my refund and just try to make my own..

Ermsh;; I cut open one of my ignitions by cutting the black thread - and basically the whole top layer fell to bits. =.="" Is there not a better way to do this; as I want to cut open my 2nd ignition ._."

Look at my toutrial of how to fix your Ignitions on the page before this one.

It seems that in my ignition, the foam isn't the problem as it's not bunched up or torn or anything - I cut it open only to find that the foam is probably in the same condition as it was new. I bought the pads off ebay so I did expect SOME wear and tear, but it seems that there is none. This is odd, as the white plastic was a little brown and had imprints of the little holes from the foam. Anyone know any other way I can fix my mat?

The down arrow is now ghosting ==" Cutting up a mat can trigger this? oO' Also... THE SENSORS AREN'T TOUCHING. This is odd. I've flipped the top sensor over to look at the foam... and for some reason the down arrow is continuously triggering... however it is not even touching the foam, for I cut 3 sides and flipped it over as well. Help please.

Get the Official ITG Pad, It's $20, and it works great.

I suppose I should've read this and other forums beforehand, but I bought one of these on eBay that, when opened, looked and smelled brand new.

My PC recognizes the unit when it is plugged in, and it is accessible in the control panel under the "game controllers" icon. However, upon testing the input signals through control panel and Stepmania, well there is no signal at all. Nothing is recognized when the buttons are pushed.

I've perused this and many forums for hours and had ZERO luck. Is there anything else I can try? Or do I simply have a defective unit?

did you go to the map and configure triggers on the stepmania options menu? if not, just do that and map the buttons yourself.
