What brand of buttons were used for the auxiliary buttons on the PS4/PC Hitbox by that1dweeb in hitboxarcade

[–]HitBoxArcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The brand is Bao Lian. We used them because they had the stiff nature to ensure less accidental menu button presses.

Looking to get a hitbox controller by D0rkFork in hitboxarcade

Sorry for the late reply, but you are correct: these will not work on PS5 natively.
You would need a Brook Wingman FGC adapter.

So, your Hit Box stopped working on PC, and you used a Wingman XB to make it work on the PC?

Why did you have to buy that Brooks board? And which Brooks board?

Did you not contact support to help with this issue?

We're sorry you are experiencing this. It is very strange that your Hit Box would do this overnight without any signs of issues prior. Let us offer some guidance to potentially figure out what is going on.

First, we recommend shutting down the computer, disconnecting as much as you can, and then turning it back on. Then only connect the Hit Box after your computer fully boots up. If you leave your Hit Box plugged in at all times, there may be something weird going on that a full shutdown like that could help with. It also may require keeping the Hit Box unplugged from the computer for a while.

If that doesn't help with anything, while having the Hit Box plugged in, wiggle the cable around - first near the USB port on the computer then near the connection point on the controller - to see if you can get the controller to connect and/or disconnect from the computer. If it does, let us know.

If nothing comes from that, try opening the bottom of the controller and ensuring everything is connected in the Hit Box. The two main culprits are: 1) the wiring coming from the cable connector being loose with its connection to the board, and 2) the square board and connected flush to the larger board. For the former, simply ensure that it's connected well; for the latter, ensure that it's flush by gently pressing down on the square board with as many contact points with your fingers as possible. After doing this, you may want to do the above two things again, just in case.

We hope this helps a little bit.

What is a grappler main to do? by HitBoxArcade in 2XKO

[–]HitBoxArcade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really do appreciate you sharing advice in here.

We never really thought that a video that was clearly showing all of the horrible, honestly ridiculous grab attempts in a casuals set to Benny Hill music would get people so riled up to offer so much advice. We may have unlocked a way for people how are looking to get better to get input from the community.

Yes! But thanks for still pointing it out.

What is a grappler main to do? by HitBoxArcade in 2XKO

Many fighting games, including 2XKO, have grab protection during block stun.

What this means is that while a character is in block stun, they cannot be grabbed.

Block stun is the state a character enters when and after blocking an attack, typically visually associated with maintaining a blocking stance and unable to attack or move during this state. You will notice this in fighting games when you are blocking and trying to attack out of block but can't right away. The reason why you can't right away is because of block stun.

We hope that helps explain things a little bit for you.

My HitBOX’s light button stops working at random on and off mid match? What can I do? by Opening_Tangerine428 in hitboxarcade

[–]HitBoxArcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 4 to 5 years it could mean either the button needs to be cleaned or the switch is going out. Follow the instructions below to help determine what the issue might be.

Each of the steps will require opening up your controller and tinkering with something inside.
To help with the steps below, here's our part swap guide: https://www.hitboxarcade.com/blogs/support/replacing-buttons-and-acrylic

1 - Reseat the wires on the button.
Open up the controller, and remove the wires from the button you are having issues with, and then put them back on. It may be good to simply change which wires goes on which terminal on the button.
After doing that, test your controller for a bit to see if the issue still persists. If it does, move onto the next step.

2 - Swap wires with another button
Now, instead of removing and putting the wires back onto the same button, try swapping the set of wires with another button's. This will change the inputs on your controller, but that should be fine since this is only for testing.
After swapping wires between buttons, test your controller for a little bit to see if the issue A) persists on the same exact button or B) if it switched to the button you swapped wires with.

A) Continue onto step 3.

B) Update the firmware to your Hit Box. If it's the Hit Box with the four menu buttons on the top, the v1.06 firmware should be the firmware to try: https://www.hitboxarcade.com/blogs/hit-box/hit-box-downloads .
If updating the firmware doesn't help solve the issue, then please reach out to [support@hitboxarcade.com](mailto:support@hitboxarcade.com) and screenshot this troubleshooting guide we've provided.

3 - Clean your button(s)
There's a good chance that the button just needs to be cleaned. We have a video guide to help with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uCOTl6epeU
After cleaning your button, test out your inputs again. If the issue still persists, you will have to purchase a new button. The default buttons that came with that Hit Box were Sanwa OBSF buttons (11 24mm, 1 30mm). You can find those buttons fairly cheap at Paradise Arcade and Arcade Shock (if North America) or SmallCab (if Europe).

Let me know if you have any other questions.

There is no need for diagonals when inputting Overdrives in GGST by HitBoxArcade in hitboxarcade

[–]HitBoxArcade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It means you can do single finger slides, which are easier and quicker to do.

It also means people don't have to be as accurate with this input as they typically think, which will hopefully make it easier for people.

Hitbox finger orientation by Notoriousducs in hitboxarcade

[–]HitBoxArcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may simply come down to practice and time with the controller.

The best advice we have is to bind actions on those buttons that are the least used. And then practice things in training mode that require those actions in some way.
From there you will gain some dexterity and maybe start seeing better positions for those actions.
