Hello,

Do you think it is posible to use a PC analogic joystick (that used to be plugged into the PC Sound card DB15) with a STE ?
Of course with an adapter... But are the signals compatible enough?
Has someone tried this?

I think not. Maybe the jaguar people are more knowledgeable on the subject.

Nice read on the ports: http://www.allpinout...Enhanced_15_pin

There's an adapter currently being sold on "YouKnowWhere" for use with STs or Amigas that allows for the use of PC analog game controllers. It plugs into the standard Atari/DB9 ports as well as the parallel printer port. So, no, it doesn't use the STe/Falcon/Jaguar Enhanced Joystick Ports but yes, it is possible to use PC analog controllers on the ST and Amiga.

What I'd like to know is how much more advanced - if any - are the Enhanced Joystick Ports over the Atari 5200 joystick ports?

So, it's not possible to use directly a pc old joystick directly on the ejp?

I think it is entirely possible to wire one up BUT there is hardly any software that will make use of it.
Sofar I can't name a single title that will make use of analogue input.
Enlighten me if possible, I'm willing to learn about new ST(e) and Falcon titles
