So I burned my T2: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=12097#p84029

And I realised just how awesome the T2 is on PC: viewtopic.php?f=26&t=12646

I ended up buying a new T2. The old one works fine, only the case is busted and I can no longer use it with my complex setup as I need AC power, but PC is totally fine as I'm not really pushing it too hard from a power consumption perspective...so what to do with it?...



The brightness of the lights detracts from the picture. It looks really brilliant in person. I mounted it behind one of the cable holes on the side of my case. The side of my case is transparent so I can see the little LED screen when I need to. If you want to do the same, this is how:

1) Take the case off your T2. You don't need to do this but it makes the presentation a little cleaner.

2) Get an internal USB hub which is designed to plug directly into your motherboard, like this: https://www.mwave.com.au/product/therma ... ub-ac24760

3) Get a USB port slot plate adapter, like this: https://www.mwave.com.au/product/starte ... er-ab64816

4) Get some extension / converter cables to connect #3 to your T2's A and B ports, it'll cost you a couple of bucks off eBay.

And you're done!

Now this bad boy is fully integrated and the USB ports are nicely mounted to the back of my case, it feels like a really neat little package. I'm really happy with this:)

All I need now is a "Titan Two Inside" sticker (like the Intel Inside one)!

UPDATE:

And here's what it looks like from behind:

Nice idea

No blue color around or I would have 3D printed one already
Version A 3D View


Version B 3D View


Version C 3D View

haha love it!!!

Very nice idea!!

What about the Titan's USB-A and USB-B input ports? Does you have cables to access those from out of the computer case? Are your keyboard and mouse direct connected to the computer?, or you are using the Titan Two to redirect? I am ALSO considering do the same, with K&M on the Titan Two + redirection.

I am using my T2 to redirect, so everything is plugged into my T2. This is how I've done it:

I extend the USB ports with this:

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/9pin-Male-t ... 2749.l2649

This allows me to keep my setup nice and clean.

Now to switch between the script and regular HID passthrough, I have created what I call "typing mode", you can see here in my PC scripting template: https://www.consoletuner.com/greslib/?w675

FINALLY, just in case I'm having issues (e.g. I'm in the middle of writing a script and there's a bug and I can't use HID passthrough), I can quickly switch between T2 passthrough and direct input because I use a logitech keyboard with a unifying receiver: https://www.logitech.com/en-au/product/ ... ceiver-usb

This final bit covers all scenarios. It's perfect:)

Nice. Thanks for the links.

Obs: In my previous message I wrote "not considering" by mistake. What I meant is:

Yeah I thought that's what you meant:)

It's so nice having this setup. I was sick of having to disconnect all my cables every time I wanted to switch between console and PC.

I realised I forgot to post pictures from the back:

APLAUSO ENORME (OUTSTANDING) well done!! :O :D
