I finally got around to making this
tutorial for duplicating any button on the 360 wireless
controller. I know the quality of it overall is crappy but it
will show you how at least...lol |
 |
close up of the under belly button, this
is the end goal getting some buttons at your fingertips rather
than having to let go of the aim thumbstick |
 |
Now its just a matter of figuring out
what buttons we want to move... jump, alt fire, etc... that's
the key more aiming less searching for sticks and buttons! |
 |
This first picture is a top view and has
nine different numbered sections.
|
 |
In this picture you have the contacts for
the "a" button. There are two circles, one red and the other
yellow. each color goes to one side of your button that you will
add. now when the new button is pushed the red and yellow
connect making the "a" function happen. |
 |
For the "x,y,b" buttons it is the same
setup as the previous, the only difference is that all three of
these buttons will have a common connection on one side. The
common point is circled in green. So if you wanted to add and
extra "y" and "x" buttons then each button would have the
corresponding red circled connection going to one side of the
two new buttons. the remaining prong on each button will be
connected to each other, then connected to the common point. I
hope this all makes sense,...Im not very good at explaining
things like this. |
 |
Again same setup as the last one for the
"start" and the "guide" buttons. The common connection on these
is a T in a trace and is difficult to solder to, but can be
done. The circle with "St" is for the start and the circle with
the "G" is for the guide. |
 |
For the "back" button. You will need to
solder to the end of a very small capacitor for the red
connection....the other is marked in yellow. |
 |
Same as others...just add the button to
these contacts. This is for the up directional pad |
 |
Right directional pad |
 |
Down directional pad. Use the red and
yellow contacts. The purple is an alternate point for section
8...its easier to solder to. |
 |
Left directional pad. the yellow contact
on this is the left side of the resistor that sits there. You
can also use the purple contact in the previous section in place
of the yellow contact in this section. |
 |
These are the buttons for the left and
right bumper buttons and the wireless detection button. same as
before yellow and red to the buttons. |
 |
...the left thumbstick click button |
 |
...the right thumbstick click button |
|
|
Classic black and whites from the s-type |
 |
different angle |
