Howdy all, been a while since I last posted, and in that time I have tried 3D printing cases for these things, but they are too fragile and break on assembly 100% of the time, was going to try resin printing but found it needs a lot more caution with fumes etc so I got a printer but waiting to...

My apologies, I meant the SIO2SD is the one I got. Bloody typos! I'm really just trying to figure out why there was a 2nd version, and what differences there are, since I have apparently made V1 (SIO2SD), I did ask this once but someone just said they were basically identical. I'm just curious...

I'm still fuzzy about the MX4SIO vs MC2SIO comparison, I'm a little confused again because you mention the MC2SIO is the "fake" one but that is the one I got the file from on the front page of this very forum and sent to the manufacturers to be made. Then I found the other files for the MX...

Sounds like I probably need to do that anyway, though .06mm layer heights would take me 3 hours to print a single case, I would be looking for the quickest I can print while still having a decent result, an hour per case is bad enough at the moment! I'm also assuming a resin printer might...

I've been thinking of getting a resin printer, but I had already spent on the ender and it means changing my whole procedure and the mess etc... Even so I'm still thinking about it for the exact reasons you mention. If I can't find an economical solution I'll probably go down that route just to...

I totally agree with you man, I had 300 of these made to the specs on your sheet on page 1 and they are still sitting in a box in my house because I haven't been able to print a decent case for them yet, and I don't want to sell them until I can get them to a certain standard and not cheap out...

I had a similar issue with a 77x and had to use the "pre 75x" file to get it to work. I haven't had a look at his for a while though, busy getting a case that works for the 300 boards I just got made before I can test them properly! Oh and I'm not sure if the memory card issue is the same, but...

Good to know! Thanks. MODS: Any chance that the buttons on the main page can be updated with the new info? The latest on those is that it might be able to be done but there was no update on it for a while. Also I'm not sure if there is a significant difference between the original SIO2SD and...

As said, the resistor is a pull up for one of the pins, just so it doesn't float and cause random 1 or 0. EDIT: I did find that if you buy a cheap 128mb ps2 memory card on amazon, you can remove the little parts (carefully!) and there are 2 surface mount resistors that add up to about 40 ohm in...

Quick question if anyone has the latest, the instructions say anything 75x and above won't work with the mod. Is this still the case? I seem to remember someone mentioning that it should work on all slim models, but I have a 9x slim to test as well and assume that one will still be an issue...

Someone got a package today! Finally! It only took about 3 months from paying them quite a bit of money to me getting a box filled with these! It's like Christmas! Now to start testing. I purchased 3 different slim PS2's for testing, all with dead disc drives since I don't need them and they...

That might just be perfect for me, I just took delivery of 300 pre-made PCBs and was just about to start measuring as the last one I printed didn't fit the boards correctly. I may mod the case slightly but that's cool, I can Blender. Just wanted to say thanks for doing the measurement and...

My 2 cents, their motto gives it away. "All you need about live!" This is a chinese, maybe scam site, at best ripping off any designs they can find due to zero f#$%s given about copyright laws etc. I wouldn't buy from there if they paid me! EDIT: They had a contact me page, so I sent them an FU...

Sorry replied to the wrong thread, I missed this one! But pretty much still the same reply, I will try what you suggested now that I have seen it. I think I did the standard install on my ps2 phat so I guess I need to do a fresh install from his slim to get compatibility. We did get a games list...

Oh no, we got the games list to come up with the boot file meant for the older models but we had no controller input working for some reason, it's weird, works fine on the phat model. The games list came up no worries, and yep, I know to remove USB drives before trying the adapter, that's all...
