Re: guitar hero controler

I know that it's been done. I think that you can use either the USB chicklet (not completely sure on this) or you can open it up, and wire each button to a pin on the serial port.

Re: guitar hero controler

Yeah, it works. You have to have a compatible 360 controller chiclet, but it works. We were actually planning to use it to control our manipulator, but our mentor vetoed it because he said it's too easy to lose control.

Talking Re: guitar hero controler

If you really wanted to be cool, you'd know that the ultimate controller would be the steel battalion controller-that game is insane!

Re: guitar hero controler

You think any teams are doing wiimotes this year?
