Hi there.
If you can't find a seller on ebay, then there is only one option and that is to build one yourself.

I was checking the topic of making one, but it has a lot of different information. Do you know a way to build one?

Read this thread. Order the parts closer to your country and shipping will be faster.

Hi there, for the time being, if you're in the USA, I'm selling them on eBay. I don't know how long I'll continue to build and sell them, but maybe for a few months. Just search "GIMX" on eBay. or message me direct and I can sell them direct for a $5.00 discount off the eBay price.

I make them in a custom 3D printed case with a USB-C port.

I built my own because I'm a bit handy with a soldering iron and I'm not too afraid of burning my fingers, but yeah. It wasn't hard.

The hard part is building the configs around it when you can't just download one - because I don't think anyone else here has tried to do what I'm trying to do with it - that is, to use a Logitech G29 on an actual PlayStation 2 unit for Gran Turismo 3 and 4 by emulating both the GT Force wheel and the Driving Force Pro wheels.

I have the GT Force controls and buttons down correctly for the game, but I don't know how to get Force Feedback working. Without it, what's the point of using a wheel?

I can make them in two styles: minimal which is in a transparent shrink tubing, or a custom 3D printed case with a USB cable permanently attached.

Hello SteamController are you still making these? I’m looking to purchase one in the future.

Yes I am still selling them. On eBay and Etsy! On both of those platforms, they ship internationally as well (I am in USA). Sorry for late response, I am not getting email notifications from this forum.

Updating this thread with the most recent version I made of the GIMX adapter, contained in a secure 3D printed case:

That looks awesome dude! If I didn't already own a couple adapters already, I would buy one in a heartbeat. I almost want the ones I have to break so I have an excuse to buy yours lmao.
