on one hand I agree with you, not to mention that a big reason that this mod would be given to controllers is to make the boxx's legality case stronger. However, I think more power in the hands of the players leads to a more fun experience playing and watching the game and will overall improve everyone's smash experience. you also have to consider that making techs easier is already legal via controller notches, giving players advantages over each other by paying a lot of money to have it done. fuck that! leeeegaaaaliiiize! :)

YoYoNinjaBoy I still feel those fixes are a bit excessive. Here is my full stance if you care to read it. (if by some miracle you've seen this before, I do apologize lol) The TL;DR is that a lot of these fixes goes beyond the scope of controller fixes and start to become game changers in my humble perspective. The root of the problem is the excessive range changes in which ideal input is regarded. (There were changes which I did find truly viable*, I'll mention those towards the bottom.) 10:20 , you should make it that it is possible to hit 1.0 on every controller, but not stretch out that hit zone to all the values, just the ones dead in the middle. This is fine for the diminutive nature of the c stick. The same goes with 14:16. This goes beyond a controller fix to entirely new gaming implement. That mid range is also a bit excessive, it ranging all the way from the dead zone to the drop line. In my opinion it should only be a slight extended pad about a third of the suggested distance above the drop line, with perhaps a slight bit of leniency dead in the middle. I know it is unlikely, but if someone wanted to shield angle downwards whilst still on a platform, that is no longer a possibility. 17:17 The last solution was an elegant fix. However I still think the application is a tad bit excessive. While I will admit a single point for Perfection makes it unviable for any sort of practical application, I will say that that point is perfection for a reason. It has higher risks, but yields incredibly high rewards. It is a goal to strive for, and the closer to that goal you become, the more Awe inspiring the results will be. By making such a generous window for perfection, you compromise all the skill, effort, and dedication that usually warrents these results, this dedication being the soul of the game. This literally makes perfection easier to reach, which is a game changer, not a controller fix. ***There are viable aspects however that I do believe are practical. The dash back fix is not only a minimal and logical fix, it is an intuitive one as well as the the action of turning around is generally given a connotation of slower movement. (I wonder if you can make the game concider range as well for these given inputs to increase accuracy of intent? 13:47 I do appreciate the ability to recalibrate your notche positions. Instead of making Perfection easier to attain, it sets it so that that goal of perfection is unique and tailored to every individual, as well as every individual controller. (I also don't mind the extra pad of leniency, as it makea up for unaccounted controller degradation.) I believe these changes are a step in the right direction, but some of these change can keep it from becoming standard. It's time to dial back those changes, so that this mod can become what it always intended to be in the first place: a controller fix.

@@MelloCello7 I know this old but if you can be a year late I can be two years late! While I agree that nigh unattainable perfection can create incredible moments and reward the most daring players, there's a difference between hard and jank. Pretty much all the changes seem to be stuff that was already achievable with SOME controllers (except the huge shield drop range which I admit is questionable) , as long as you're willing to pay. There's a big difference between messing up a risky angle because of skill and messing up a risky angle because the notch wore out or because you couldn't afford to get notches. I think every controller should be as good as the best controller (this would require controllers to be better than any existing controller for example UCF gives 100% dashbacks even though no controller could do this so that everyone was on a level playing field) otherwise there's a paywall to the highest level of competition. Controllers should have a minimal effect on the outcome of games. Hot Take: Melee will eventually stop using Nintendo GC controllers. If Melee is in it for the long haul controllers need to be consistent, cheap, and readily available. I don't think Nintendo can be trusted to offer this in the long run.

Great project and stance! I would have liked to see Magus' code become adopted, and I had been predicting that if that doesn't happen, there will inevitably be electrical mods to emulate it. There are people in our community who refuse to have ever any changes done to the game's code and to our controllers, but if this conservatism gets to the point where it hurts people through increased hand pain or frustration and money loss from hunting controllers - and we have been at that point for a long time already - I don't think there's any other fitting way to describe these people than as backwards. Since I haven't seen any TOs except for me adopt Magus' code, I'll also be using this mod in my main controller so I can smash turn consistently even at other people's tournaments.

I do really think that this controller would be amazing for the community as a whole, but the one thing that stuck out to me in your talk was that the controller would be legal if and only if it did not allow macros. I think that is a very reasonable rule and should be enacted but I think allowing such controllers to be spread throughout the community along with people personalizing their own coded GC controller I think things could easily get out of control. I mean if say this product did catch on then before a tournament match people would need to have their melee controllers checked to make sure their personalized code meets the no-macro specifications. That being said I truly would love one of these controllers since I can only shield drop on the right side and because I too have had to go through a struggle to get my hands on GC controllers in the past. I think this is the right step for the SSBM community and i believe that this controller issue NEEDS to be taken seriously so that we can begin to evolve our own game, what we have now is absolutely ridiculous.

@SSBMArte

This is amazing, I'm usually dead set against the box, for three reasons : Not everybody can get it / It's expensive ; it requires to relearn everything on it ; it breaks physics laws due to the stick being, well, a stick, meaning for example you can't repeatedly input down up down up on it with your finger at high speed. This solution addresses all of these problems. I think it should be noted however that SDI will be significantly easier to do, since "continuous SDI" sideways is alternating the up and down perfect angles in this direction. With this perfect angle mod, I believe SDIs will be more numerous and lengthier, and it might affect the gameplay. Although this could be easily forgiven compared to the positive aspects of this solution, especially since an opponent with the same tools will have better wavedashes and a slightly better dash.

I've gone through something like 7 controllers since I started competing in 2012 and I've learned to reliably shield drop with all of them.... Some were easier to do it with than others, but then they would be bad at other things so it kinda balances itself out in that way....

I'm not a good player so my opinion probably doesn't mean shit, but I really like what hax says about how controllers should have been perfect 16 years ago. the boxx and hax's Arduino mod shouldn't be banned because they allow greater precision. it reminds me of baseball players using pine tar to get a better grip on a bat or ball. it's not like a foreign substance that can increase movement via turbulence which is clearly illegal. it just allows a pitcher or batter to have better control over the tool they are working with.

Seems like placing the perfect angle/shield drop windows at an optimal location has a better chance at being legal than making the windows bigger

I think the shield drop straight down section with this mod is a little too large. Additionally, the actual mods may be considered too large or too little depending on the person judging, and so a standard set of mods should be put in place. Besides that I think this video could be very promising and might really improve the meta.

I didn't say that it wasn't hard as fuck balls, there's a decently good frame of time where you input down before you're hitting shield and you shield drop like that, i've never fucked with the side shit

The TL;DR is that a lot of these fixes goes beyond the scope of controller fixes and start to become game changers in my humble perspective. The root of the problem is the excessive range changes in which ideal input is regarded. (There were changes which I did find truly viable*, I'll mention those towards the bottom.) 10:20 , you should make it that it is possible to hit 1.0 on every controller, but not stretch out that hit zone to all the values, just the ones dead in the middle. This is fine for the diminutive nature of the c stick. The same goes with 14:16. This goes beyond a controller fix to entirely new gaming implement. That mid range is also a bit excessive, it ranging all the way from the dead zone to the drop line. In my opinion it should only be a slight extended pad about a third of the suggested distance above the drop line, with perhaps a slight bit of leniency dead in the middle. I know it is unlikely, but if someone wanted to shield angle downwards whilst still on a platform, that is no longer a possibility. 17:17 The last solution was an elegant fix. However I still think the application is a tad bit excessive. While I will admit a single point for Perfection makes it unviable for any sort of practical application, I will say that that point is perfection for a reason. It has higher risks, but yields incredibly high rewards. It is a goal to strive for, and the closer to that goal you become, the more Awe inspiring the results will be. By making such a generous window for perfection, you compromise all the skill, effort, and dedication that usually warrents these results, this dedication being the soul of the game. This literally makes perfection easier to reach, which is a game changer, not a controller fix. ***There are viable aspects however that I do believe are practical. The dash back fix is not only a minimal and logical fix, it is an intuitive one as well as the the action of turning around is generally given a connotation of slower movement. (I wonder if you can make the game concider range as well for these given inputs to increase accuracy of intent? 13:47 I do appreciate the ability to recalibrate your notche positions. Instead of making Perfection easier to attain, it sets it so that that goal of perfection is unique and tailored to every individual, as well as every individual controller. (I also don't mind the extra pad of leniency, as it makea up for unaccounted controller degradation.) I believe these changes are a step in the right direction, but some of these change can keep it from becoming standard. It's time to dial back those changes, so that this mod can become what it always intended to be in the first place: a controller fix.

I'm with you, I'd put money down for this. Back dash drove me away from Melee over the course of 4 years to be entirely honest. Once my OG GC controller broke that had perfect back dash it's never been the same. It's been a glaring and massively annoying problem for so many years. It makes me take the game less seriously even though I am a player FIRST and avid fan secondly. I've gone through so many controllers and I've settled on one that can shield drop but not back dash because fuck it, you can't have it all....until now. This is good

Amazing. Always well-articulated and well-thought out arguments. The current solution may not be perfect, but the idea of standardizing the performance of GC controllers is something that needed to be at least talked about. The scavenging and upkeep/maintenance fees of just being able to play at a competitive level (for controllers/mods) is ridiculous and hurts the game's accessibility.

I wonder how people would feel about using it for improving powershield, diagonal c-stick to force nair (disable greystick for a frame), disabling the center stick region for moonwalks, a delayed jump to allow hand travel for perfect aerials, and other misc. stuff like that. Nothing stupid like upB cancel macro for doc, rapidfire SDI, or rapid pika jabs, but where to we draw the line?

I think something like removing lightshield inputs on one trigger for power shielding is totally okay, as people basically do this already as a mod.

You solved one of my two problems with mod controllers - still a little fuzzy on how this is legal since there is no controller in existence with all of these. I might do this to my backup controller though.

Well my problem then is what is to stop you from changing the code on the Arduino to give an unnoticeable advantage over the B0XX? This would kind of do exactly the opposite and make cheating easier than it has ever been if we just allow Arduinos without being able to check the code, which would make the anti-cheat process even harder. (That is unless we want to set up 60fps hand cams, which we should if the Arduino mod is legalized)

I know this is quite old but I'm considering getting into the competitive melee scene and finding a "good" controller seems impossible to me and it's almost to the point where im considering giving up before I even start. Either this project or someone creating reasonably priced custom controllers (sub $100) is a must for the future of melee and heck even PM.

Hax you are not a God, but an eternal bringer of life. If we are ever to achieve 20XX, we will have to be ever pursuing improvement in every area of the game/meta which includes controllers. Even if people want to cheat, let them. The true Gods will Shine through. 20XX is an inevitability, even if it is not humans achieving it. I wish you all the best in your endeavors. You have my support.
