Mayflash releasing new GC-USB adapter in May

I keep hoping for a fix but I haven't heard back from them in awhile. Sent them an email a couple days ago to check in on progress and they promptly ignored me.

Try sending them an email. Maybe if more people make them aware of the issue they will start taking it seriously.

just quote peoples names on here that are interested, i think maybe at least 10 people here are a lost sale due to the issue, im sure others would love to buy one but have not seen this thread or have not come on the forums

if they released the source code for what they have we could make it work....

Not going to happen. The irony is my code is open source and they could download it and see how its done. To be honest its not all that hard.

http://code.google.com/p/x360ce/downloads/list could something like this not be used to make it think an xbox360 controller is being used?

Finally received this reply back after sending Mayflash a few more emails:

"We are working on this issue and the solution will be come out at the end of this month. Please contact the distributor which you bought for replacement by then. Thanks"

That is the exact quote including grammatical errors. So it looks like a fix is coming. I emailed them back asking if this meant it was a software/driver fix or if it was a hardware problem that needed a new unit. Didn't receive a response yet.

Here's hoping it's a driver fix because I'm pretty sure I went past the return timeline waiting for a fix. Sad

I guess that depends on what issue you want working. According to there blog

- Plug and play, no need for drivers this implies no driver any longer.
- Two simulatenous controllers supported this is a firmware change
- Runs on Windows 7 this is given now that they are using a driver-less HID

Seem my comments in bold.

There is also some talk in this thread about slider issue, and that is also a firmware change.

I recently bought one, the first day I plugged it, and win7 64 bits recognized it, but as all of you, the L and R bumpers were always "on" for the GCpad plugin.
Also when I plugged a second gc controller, the controller went crazy! it swapped buttons and went to no trigger some of them.

Second day, I connected the adapter to keep reserching, and... it didn't worked.
Windows will not reproduce the pop-up device connected sound anymore.

You guys will be much happier with the HID driver device. Unfortunately you would have to RMA that old one, unless they provided a way to upgrade the firmware?

I doubt it.

I'm looking for a gamecube to usb adapter.

Is this one worth it or are there better products out there? Confused
