Modded PS2 controller lockout?!?

[-Ace-]

Well, if you think it's a faulty install, how do you explain all the other games that work flawlessly? If I were to test 20 games, 3 out of the 20 probably wouldn't work, but the rest would. I have been modding for years and am quite sure the job isn't faulty. I guess I could open it up and check connections, but it still doesn't make sense.

Did you just do the install or has it been modded for awhile and developed this problem afterwards? It sounds like a slight solder bridge somewhere.

hmm EA games, sounds familiar, Lol..

Is it certain games, like say THUG2 works, NFSU2 never works, etc.

Well, I don't have THUG2, but NFSU2 definitly doesn't work. Goldeneye and Killswitch didn't work either. I modded it about a year or so ago, maybe longer. I don't play a whole lot of ps2, so never noticed a problem until Killswitch came out and I bought it. Fired it up and got the controller lockout. This was the first time I noticed anything like this. Not every EA game doesn't work- the other Bond games work just fine. I just duped the newest Legends of Wrestling, and that worked fine, so I don't know. Iknow I don't have a pinched controller cable or anything, because I just recently installed the ps2 guts into one of those clear cases. By solder bridge, you mean when solder basically makes contact with the pin next it that you didn't intend to have soldered right?

hmm well it might be that a conection is coming loose, so check all your soldering.

But wait till LUFC Fan comes online as he is using the same chip, cus it might be a new form of protection but I doubt it.

Disable the mod and play orginal see if that works.

I have a messiah 2 and all the above games and have no probs here all play perfectly

go over your install. Try the games with the chip off aswell
