Welcome to the Viking forums!

Hey thanks -
I did have one question about the macro controller that, undoubtedly, I'll know when it get here... but is the 360guide button able to be put into a macro? I understand if not, being that even tapping it even under normal conditions can cause delay in the window opening. I checked the forums and didn't really see anything on it.

I ask because it's something I might need for one my interests in having purchased the controller. For automating mundane repeat achievements such as "Win 1000 matches", etc.

Either way, I hope to bring something extra to the community with macros that will aid in obtaining the obscure achievements. One of my first goals is creating a macro for that stupid 100% a halftime achievement on BCFX.

Thanks again

No the guide button is not wired to the chip

Actually, it is And the guide button does show up on the timeline editor. Why? I have absolutely no reason, but we do wire to it on the macro controller so we decided to include it in the timeline editor. Just in case we got a weird request!

So you CAN include the guide button in a macro. You just can't assign a macro to the guide button.

Beautiful! I hadn't any interest in making it into a macro starting button, but being able to put it's function into a macro is exactly what I was hoping for. My day just got a bit brighter!

Yea the macro controller is just awsome! Every funtion on the controller can be used even start & select. Some people even made macros where u can acess your netflex from power up start with the press of a tac switch! There are few limitations with the software but u can almost create anything your mind can think of. Truly awsome controller. Best console controller ever made actually! (In my opinion.)
