does this work on COD 5, and does it have to be a lower speed?

im having some problems,, ive set it all up everything works perfect on cod4, but if i play cod5,  its auto shooting, but at normal speed,  when i adjust the pot for cod5  it seems like no matter which way i turn it, it stays same speed unless i turn it up all the way then i cant fire..  anyone know what the problem is?

yes it works for cod 5 and omni it sounds like you might have some solder touching some were or a some wires but i could be wrong

   see on the instructions it gives,  7 and 9 both use the base pin?  what about the collector on teh transistor?  is it left untouched?

7) run a new wire from the switch to a 1k res and into the base pin of the npn transistor
8) solder te collector of the transistor to the middle trigger pin
9) solder the base to the bottom trigger pin.

you did catch a typo on my part there. I have corrected the wording.. the diagram is and allways has been correct.

7)switch to base
8) collector to middle pin
9) emitter to bottom pin

now as for your problem of it working in one game and not in the other, and this auto fire you speak of, dosnt make any since. there is no diference between the games to make this happen, it is a problem with your soldering. the fact that it worked fine in cod4 and auto fires in cod5 is unheard of. you must have something loose bouncing around inside the controller..please check all conections

I personally have not tested this in WAW I will hopefully get to it this weekend with the rest of the install pics. I have been told by a few people it works and also been told it dont.. the biggest thing about your situation is the auto fire deal.. that should not happen regardless of what game it is, and if it does happen, it should happen for all games. it kindof sounds like you have a bad, or wrong transistor.

edit:
not to blow my own horn or anything, but I have not seen a better 555 mod anywhere. but this is also obsolete when you get ready to move into programed chips, that will work for any game, I have made it fairly simple look at this:

that has been consuming alot of my free time.

kicks left out the transistor, and put rapid on a button, not the triggers, if you conect pin three directly to the center pin, it will cause an auto fire, so put a momentary push button in to control it.

is gears of war 2 and left 4 dead the same settings as cod 5 or cod4? im getting tired of adjusting and just wanted to know which other games work with cod5 set up

I have never played gears of war...left for dead is a little trickey, any mode will work, the faster the better, but it only works with duel pistols. this is in the games programing. as for the cod 5 mode. halo is the closest to that speed. put a small mark where you need it for each of the games you want, so you just line up the marks and bam.

so would the auto fire shot faster than the triggers regularly, or just act as another trigger?

no it just act as another trigger, you still have the pot to adjust fire rates

this works on all games and is the best 555 timer mod congrats matt toot away.i think alot of you should read all all posts most of your ?'s will be answered.like the emitter ?,does it work on cod waw,matrix and cg etc... and the way matt has it setup there is no reason to try to add or take away any parts it works perfect the way it is.also this is not a pic so you are going to have to adjust it for differ games.i have noticed the cod waw setting works on most of them there is really no need for 100 differ settings.just make a mark on the controller for the game you play most.however acid mods is the best for answering any ?'s or problems you may have no need to wait a day or 2 for them to get answered. good luck and have fun modding

can you explain how to use a momentary button , cuz it gets so annoying switching it on/off during gameplay i just want a button i can press to shoot the mod .. so if i use a button i dnt need the NPN ? im confused can u just clarify how to hook up the momentary button . THANKS !

ok go back to the install schematic, do you see pin number three? see how it goes to a on/off switch? replace the on/off with a MOMENTARY push button. then coming out of the push button, solder directly to the center trigger pin. throw away the transistor and resistor.  then when playing use trigger for normal, and push button for rapid fire.

FYI.. this works, as with most sleeper/simisleeper mods by applying voltage to the trigger, and just enough voltage, that any more added will cause it to fire. So when the trigger is pulled, adding more voltage, it rapid fires. So if you turn the switch on, leave off the resistor and transistor (these are what brings that voltage down to exactly where it is needed, just before firing) the 555 will be supplying too much power so the controller will read it as a trigger pull, and the chip pulsates so it registers as multiple trigger pulls. Therefore you can replace the on/off switch with a momentary push button and just use this button for rapid fire.

Hope that helps, and that you have a better understanding of what is going on. Please let me know if you need more help.

i was wondering if anyone has done the dual triggers using extra wire to the left side?  will it work?  since the idea of it brought up earlier in this forum kinda just died out.  thnx! and great tut!

Hey folks,

I just joined this forum and I have a question concerning the type respectively the brand of the 555 timer which is used in matt´s tut. I´m from germany so I ordered at our local dealer, which in my case is "www.conrad.de". It´s a huge online store with dozens of different parts. In a phone call I asked them if there will be any TLC555 timers in near future, cuz they were out of stock. The man told me that he has a substitute for me that name is "Ic Xrl555cp = icm7555 = Lmc 555 Dil 8". He Told me that the XRL555 respective LMC555 should be the same in architecture as the TLC555 is. Only the brand is another.

So I bought this part and set up the circuit as described in matt´s tut (which by the way is great  :clap: ) and it works. But not as it should. It stutters and shoots erratic. I tried adjusting the pot but the result is not as I hoped. To cut a long story short - my question is, that I´m not sure whether the type of timer he sold to me is the correct type for matt´s setting with caps and resistors or not.

I tried it in Gears of War 2 and tested with different pot settings. Sometimes when I had a nice result in frequency and continuity it happend that there came breaks an stuttering. Could it be that my (rechargeable) battery pack was too empty and had a too low current for the timer to operate smoothly? In the specs of the TLC555 I read about a voltage range form 2 -15V which should work fine for settings powered by batteries as our controllers are.

Any ideas what could went wrong? Wrong type of timer? Or perhaps a damaged part in the circuit. By the way the ceramic capacitor does not look equal to the one matt used in his tut. It is flat but more kind of a rectangle than a disc. I´m not sure if this makes any difference? I´m also not sure if there has to be a correct resistor setting with the pot for each game, so that I perhaps only got the wrong setting of the pot which causes these stuttering effects...  :dntknw:

thanks in advance for your comments on this.

all the literature I can find on the LMC 555 is that the supply consumption is 4.5v, where as the supply consumption of the TLC 555 is 2v I think its safe to say that is part of the problem. you can try to play with the values of the caps and resistors to see if you can get it to act right.

another thing to look at tis the fire rate, depending on what game u are playing, its going to require a different setting of the firerate (pot adjustments) cod5 only will allow 8 pulses per second, and get a cap, cod 4 is coded diferently, it will alow any rate, however, just to throw numbers out there if you fire at 30 sps it will work fine, but if you fire 32 sps it will studder. it is a very fine line.

hope that helps.

wow, you have some work to do. to start, on the second pic (the back) use a pair of toe nail clippers to cut back the legs and what not. it appears some of those long legs may be touching other parts.

also, with that switch what will happen is when you flip it, you are going to start firing and not stop until you flip it back. what you need is a momentary switch. you have a toggle switch

to adjust speed, slowly turn the pot. it will be in the range. you wont want to go all the way left or right, start in the center and make very small adjustments.


however, today is 6/11/09 and there was an update today that has changed the filters of the WAW rapidfire deterction filters. research needs to be done to find the new speed, primary focus at this point will be adjustments to the pic type rapid fire, once this is complete we will know if  there is anything that can be done to correct the 555 type, depending on how we need to modify the code.
