[Connect an old PC Joystick to the Vectrex?!]

To those who are interested ..found it out! 😃

I've two Logitech Wingman Extreme Analog, made in Taiwan and made in the USA.

The cable colors and their button assignments of both are identical.

The wiring harness from the handle has the following button assignment:

 

Grey = Button 1

Orange = Button 2

Purple = Button 3

Red = Button 4

Yellow = GND

 

Easy modification, great fun.

'Tailgunner', 'Starhawk' or 'Star Wars' f.e. plays fantastic with this joystick.

This is really great! Wiring seems easy.. but which color is for Button 1 - 4 and GND??

For me my two Quickshot II (with suction cups) is still the easiest and best way to play this game.

The dot (or notch, if the chip has one) is always on the side with pin 1. The printing on the chip case can be in whatever direction the factory made them. I have some one way, some the other. But the dot or notch is always on the side with pin 1 no matter how the part number is written. 

I already thought so, but I'd better ask again than damage something. thanks.

My pokey is still on its way..

but all the pictures I find show the label of the chip readable parallel to the connector..

so my pokey has to be installed on the socket so that the label on the chip is upside down, right?

I'm gonna keep my old 2600 Harmony and buy the 7800 Concerto. Best of both worlds, since there's not that much available off the bat that I can't play on my old Harmony.

 

Ja.. the same I think too..

 

[Vector Pong (Vectrex)]

Yeah, I know. I wrote that one too

 

oh my god.. what a fool I am!!

[Vector Pong (Vectrex)]

It ought to work fine with that controller. I'll probably add in spinner support in a future update.

That would be awesome

HEX, another hombrew game, works fine with the Atari Driving Controller (not the Paddles).

I tested it on Original Hardware and Richard Hutchinson´s VecMulti.

[Vector Pong (Vectrex)]

Excellent Pong for the Vectrex, really! But I'm missing Spinner-Support (f.e. Atari Driving Controller doesn't work). possible with the next update?

count me in for a cartcopy! I'd like to see it asap in the AAstore!!

[New Harmony product: Harmony Encore]

so, I've 2 questions..

 

1. will Boulder Dash work on the 7800 Concerto Cart?

2. is there another way to stay informed about a release date for the Cart instead of daily visiting this subforum (i.e. pre-order list or similar)?

 

thank you
