Games with chat with Keyboard

Post by thE rZA »

Hey.

I have the skillz DCconnection 3 in 1. I can connect a PS/2 keyboard to it. It works flawlessly with PSO since 200x. But: Monaco GP2O doesn't work.

What games takes the KB fpr chat? This joypad-chat-thingy is lame as hell and too slow.

Any lists out there?

The Skillz adapter can be finicky. I have that one as well and it won't work with some games. The keyboard is supported by all games that support text chat.

Hey guys, I've been looking for info on the Skillz adapters (and for an actual skillz adapter). They recommended the Skillz 2in1 for keyboard mouse over the Total Control 5 on SegaXtreme.

I have a DC keyboard, so I mostly need an adapter for a mouse. Do the skillz 3 and 4 in 1 do mice as well, or just keyboard?

Other mouse adapter recommendations?

Thanks!

If I switch the mode switch to the joypad symbol, not the circle thing, it works with RSMGP2O and my PS/2 kb, too :) . I had the wrong mode, maybe.

What are the two modes for? The joypad and the cirlce?

That's to switch between a regular controller and a racing wheel. It's only for the PS2 and Saturn ports and It doesn't affect the keyboard port. If the keyboard works now, it's just a coincidence. Like I said, finicky. :lol:

Damn. If I switch to PS2 the kb works. If I switch to Saturn kb works not :oops: :shock: . So I have to spend money on the real Dc kb... Is 18 bucks ok for it?
