The madman at it again, looks like another sweet project! I noticed a screwdriver is used describing the flow chart, sign of a busy modder. Looking forward to more technical stuff. :D

I did the video originally using my fingers instead of screwdriver but a close-up of my fingers didn't look good, so redid it with screwdriver! Yes, the MadModder is back again!

Have to live up the comments I got from my Project Unity from the gaming news sites a year back, comments like "evil genius/mad scientist/hardware hacker Bacteria"! :D

When this project is eventually finished, i'm sure it won't get the level of reporting Project Unity did but will be interesting to see what it gets! At the time I made a page with the video (the old site), and all the logos on the top and right of the page are links to the news sites articles http://www.bacman.co.uk/home/unity/ - it went pretty viral at the time; had half a million YouTube hits to date.

Taking my time a bit with this project, will make this system look a lot nicer than the old system of course too.

Wow the Jaguar looks great played with that N64 stick! I never knew about that version of Wolfenstein, so clean of graphics with your RGB hookup.

Used the d-pad on the N64 controller for the Jaguar, could probably get the joystick to work as such, not experimented with that though.
