Thanks, RDC. I figured it was probably a long shot, so I just ordered one of those chips from modcentralusa. Supposed to be shipped today, and hopefully all goes well. Matt told me it was damn near impossible, but I had to tinker anyhow. Thank God, I didn't solder anything.
Quick question: would better pics help out at all? Those were half @ssed. I can't scan like You do, but I can get better pics if they help?
Do you happen to know if there are any 3rd party PS4 controllers on the market that are moddable? At $15.00, I think I got a great deal on the chip I bought, I just wish there were some generic off the shelf controllers I could hack up in a 20 minutes and have a "tournament style" controller.
