In Reply to: If anything, this mod could charitably be referred to as a 4-way stick EMULATOR, but calling it a "conversion" seems to be a bit of a misrepresentation since it DOES NOT convert an 8-way stick to a 4-way stick, even by your own odd definition of what a 4-way stick is. **nt** posted by The Maverick on 20, 2001 at 11:55 AM:
Look, it's all semantics, which is not a worthwhile argument on this board because it contributes nothing. Who gives a rip what you call a solution it as long as it works.
I have been developing a similar approach as Derrick over the last month or so, and am grateful that he shared his work with the rest of us because it not only allowed me to see the flaws with my design, his solution is much more cost effective than mine would have been.
Cut him some slack -- he's sharing his work for the benefit for all of us.
