CronusMax+PS4+G27

Post by shaikhulud »

Hi!

So, after few days of thinking and reading the GIMX tutorials i thought that DIY thing is rather complicated for me, parts will take forever to ship to Russia. So i thought: maybe i'll buy CronusMax Plus in my local store...

Here's the question: will i need something else besides CronusMax Plus to use GIMX? And how do i need to set up GIMX for this dongle? If not oh well, time to assemble some electronics :D

Thanks in advance.

Hi the Diy adaptor is really easy to make only 3 wires
Flashing it is pretty strait forward
I'm no sure abought the corus max ?

It's all nice but the parts alone will take 3-4 weeks to ship. So i'm thinking about quick solution.

Hi,
The CronusMax only emulates a gamepad. The only way to get true force feedback is the DIY USB adapter.

Hi Matlo. Slightly off topic and it's not the Chronus Max......but I was under the impression that a Titan One adapter would work with GIMX? I know I've talked to Jefferson and he sent one to you, but can you confirm whether or not a Titan One currently supports the FFB feature in GIMX without the need for anything else? If not, is it something you're actively working on?

No it can't work on the Titan one either, and I won't work on making it possible, because the firmware is not open source.
All the supported options are described on the wiki!

Don't think there is a delay in the FFB. Looks like a very expensive copy of GIMX ;)

Yes I noticed this too. Seems like they're trying to capitalize on Matlo's work :evil:

Thanks for the input, guys!

Anyhow, i'm updating my adventures with GIMX.

I've got these parts for my DIY Stick:
Image
Micro ATmega32u4 5V 16MHZ 100% Compatible For Arduino Mirco Replace Pro Bpard
Image
1PCS CH340G Serial Converter USB 2.0 To TTL 6PIN Module for PRO mini Instead of CP2104 CP2102 PL-2303HX support 5v/3.3v

Cheap clones from China of course, god bless AliExpress.

I suggest this will work (i hope you'll say it will). Also i think i don't need any soldering, right?

It wiil be nice if you suggest me anything about the wiring on these boards. I kinda suck at assembling electronics :?

I'm not sure the CH340 supports the baudrate used by GIMX (500kbps).
