Albert Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 We are going to produce another run of Stelladaptor 2600 to USB adaptors. These allow you to use 2600 controllers (joysticks, paddles and driving controllers) with various emulators for the PC and Mac. Please send me a PM and INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS if you'd like to be put on the waiting list and notified when they are available. Thanks! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow460 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I've forgotten...what's the cost again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 I've forgotten...what's the cost again? These are going to be $40 plus shipping. More expensive than previously, but my costs have gone up and they are time consuming to build and test. This will likely be the last batch. We'll make several hundred of them, but after that unless we completely redesign them, it's unlikely we'll see more. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdowney111 Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Cool. Is getting the manuals the first step or the last step? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Cool. Is getting the manuals the first step or the last step? About in the middle somewhere. I will have the circuit boards on Thursday and I already have the plastic shells. Still have some other parts to order, but will be doing that soon. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinball22 Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Has anybody who's already got one used it successfully with paddles with StellaX on a Mac running OS X? I've got a different 9-pin to USB adapter, and it works with a joystick, but I can't get it to understand paddles right, so I'm curious.

I've got a different 9-pin to USB adapter, and it works with a joystick, but I can't get it to understand paddles right, so I'm curious. Yes, the Stelladaptor works fine with paddles (and driving controllers) inside OS X with StellaOSX. It's easy to build an adapter that only supports joysticks, but a fair bit more work for the device to support additional types of controllers. The Stelladaptor is the only such device that supports paddles and driving controllers, as far as I know. And it does this without having to install any software or drivers on the host computer. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoyx Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I would still be interested if anyone can tell me how to get paddles or driving controllers working in MAME I haven't tried the driving controls, but the paddles worked fine in mame for me. The paddles appear as an analog joystick to windows. So you need to turn on Joystick support in Mame. One paddle is joystick X coord, the other paddle is the joystick Y coord. The buttons are two separate buttons. I was able to play 4 way warlords with two stelladapters and associated paddles. Great fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimo Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 would you sell one without the case for internal mounting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdowney111 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I would also be interested in one without a case for internal mounting. It would be great to see a picture of one like that so I could see how I might be able to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 The Stelladaptor is relatively easy to remove from the case--it just snaps together. You can wedge a small screwdriver in one of the holes on the sides of the case and pry it open. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
