Would it be possible to romhack games to use the Playstation

>>4094602
some games support lightgun so you're better off using that.

>>4094602
Pretty much anything is possible. Whether anyone would devote the time and effort is another story.

<3 the mouse

In a world of sub-$5-easy-to-program mini computers (arduino & co) I find it hard to believe that no one got the idea to replace the ball mechanism of a mouse by an standard optical system from a regular mouse. It would be a benediction for the PSX/DC mice

Try this, it's a Splifish controller. It's made for PS2 but it should work fine on PS1

Keep your drugs to yourself, old man

Anything is possible if enough people devote their technical skills to it. I mean, there's a reason the Dreamcast homebrew scene is lightyears ahead of the PS1 homebrew scene.

If so, then one day I hope to romhack Aerobiz Supersonic and SimCity to use a mouse. And see if I can find someone to help me hack Super Castles into english.

Lol I just copied and pasted the second time it's a spliTfish

>>4094602
it would be easier to create a circuit that converts mouse input into standard controller input. that way it could apply to all games. you would need a microcontroller or FPGA. any mouse could work, meaning you could get one with more buttons.

>>4096231
That actually looks fun

>>4096231
HOLY fucking shit. I had no idea. AND I HAVE BOTH RESIDENT EVIL SURVIVOR AND THE LIGHT GUN!!!!!!!!!

>>4094602
How many FPS were even in the PS1?
But yeah, emulators let you bind keys, so you can use something like antimicro or joy2key to map mouse movements.

>>4097505
I have the ps3 version of this. I've yet to try it but the mouse is shoddily built.

>yfw game was designed for the light gun and it was pulled from the western release because of the "murder simulators" controversy

>>4098595
keep in mind only PAL and JAP copies of the game have the lightgun support. NTSC release is missing it.

>>4094602
Dude i know exactly what you mean. The only two FPS games that support it are Alien Resurrection and Quake II, both of which I freaking love! I want more FPS mouse compatible games. Ever try playing the mouse compatible FPS games with the ASCII Grip in port one? It's the best way to FPS on PS.

>>4098625
that sucks so badly dude. I literally got my ASCII Grip and Light gun and Resident Evil survivor game out just to find out that it didn't work. Kind of pissed off about this.

>>4099491
It's been a long time age but iirc it does stil work in the pal version if your crt does pal and you need english.

>>4099495
i have a PVM so do i need to order a PAL PS1?

>>4099574
Nah, you should be able to play European games on your US Playstation using whatever method you use to play Jap games and backups.

I'll hazard a guess that most PS1 first person engines could not handle turning any faster than they could with a controller.

Sweet. Thanks for the tip
