Where can I find the designs for a DDR dance pad? The following FAQ is taken from DDR Freak's homepad thread V4, since the information contained in the FAQ is still very relevant, although I've made it a bit more concise, reordered it, added to it, and removed the dead links. However, even if I HAD rewritten every design I found, if you had all failed to understand ME, then it would have been many many hours gone to waste anyway. While they should all be consistently readable, some of you might find one author harder to understand than another. They are all written differently, and formatted differently. Now, because of the many designs available, I have not spent too long editing each of them. (Although there's only so many ways to 'mod' a softpad). While this thread will be mostly about hardpads, wood or metal, that doesn't mean there's not enough room for softpad mods aswell. So, I took an archive of pretty much all the designs I found in the homepad thread, and I'm going to repost them here directly. So, Alan was nice enough to create this whole forum at my request, and I might aswell start filling it.Īs many of you will know, DDR Freak has a 'bemani controllers' forum for this sort of topic, but unfortunately it, along with the rest of the site, has long been inactive. Welcome to the DDR Homepad building and modding thread! Many people are now incorporating true arcade sensors into their pads for as accurate an experience as possible.Īnd as always, if you have questions, suggestions, designs of your own, whatever else, just post it and someone will get back to you soon enough. Unfortunately, this topic has become somewhat more relevant since the collapse of the major non arcade pad manufacturers, so unless you're willing to chance it with what you can find on the web or buying your own cabinet, this is pretty much your last shot at getting an arcade-esque experience.įortunately, most of the designs remain relevant, functional and are quite feasible to use, even if as a base guide for your own ideas. Keyboards, controllers, old soft pads and as of late custom fightstick control boards are being used to interface these things. Interfacing the pads remains one of the trickier parts of building, but there's many options available. Images have stayed up alright and people are still building these it seems. 11/2/13 - First edit since I wrote this up, seems to be doing its duty.
