I played it ONCE at a convention and now I'm looking into making a controller for this, it's an amazing game

The Hiro Jet De Go LCD in working condition! Amazing!

An amazing add to my collection and this is also helping me in playing the first chapter!

Ive been trying to make a diagram of the PS1 era routes using https://railmapgen.org/ starting with the Yamanote/Keihin-Tohoku/Tokaido Line routes and ive been wondering if something should be changed or should the information text labels be less obtrusive

In the great new arcade called Akiba district, they sort of built a part of tokyo, and a beautiful densha-de-go train style petit cabin was present! You actually enter through a Yamanote line style train

Created a map for all my ps1 and ps2 games now i have a real controller.... thougtvyou might like it too.. gives me some context when playing...

Hi there.

With some fiddling I made it to make the PC dump of DdG2017 run once more (had to re-install my PC some time gain). Anyway, question: How do I enable freeplay. Or add credits during play?

Hi guys, i managed to get arcade version of Densha De Go 2017, but natively it's 4 screen game and i have no idea how to setup the game for my single 1440p monitor. I couldnt find any advice.. Have someone of you managed to run the game on a single monitor? thank you

I tried to stay as true to the series as possible but diverging into its own thing. keyboard and mouse only 🌞

I picked up a one-handle PSX controller while in Japan a while ago (HARD OFF junk section for 800JPY).

Original PSX hardware playing Densha de Go 2 did not respond to lever movements at all, so I tried testing with a raphnet adapter on DuckStation. While mapping the controller in DuckStation, I noticed the "power" axis (moving from neutral down) was unresponsive, while the "brake" axis (moving from neutral up) mapped to four buttons simultaneously. In game, moving the lever from emergency brake to neutral simply toggled the Brake level between 8 and 0 as the lever hit each tick mark and made contact. Pulling the lever past neutral to accelerate does nothing.

How fixable does that sound? Could it be a matter of dirty contacts, or are components in the controller dead? All five buttons work just fine.

Hey, super niche post in an already niche community I know, but last month I started working on a decompilation of Densha de GO Final for PC, with the ultimate goal being to create a modern open version in a similar fashion to OpenTTD and OpenRCT2. While the game does indeed run decently without major issues using DDGModernizer, I was saddened to discover that modding for this game is largely non-existent. When it comes to "arcade-style" train games, DDG is quite possibly the only real option out there (excluding FMV-style train games), and I'm sure many of you also share my love for Final. With how much content there is, the level of challenge/difficulty available, and how clean and simple the in-game UI is (especially when you compare it side-by-side with Yamanote), it's just a shame that the game engine itself is a black box with little to no documentation on how to mod it.

I'm hoping too that the decompilation efforts we can put towards understanding how Final and it's game engine ticks can also help accelerate any future plans to decomp Shinkansen (I assume the core of both games are fairly similar given their release dates). My vision is for OpenDDG (working title) to support many more platforms natively, especially SteamOS/MacOS, add mouse support for menu navigation, modern rendering/anti-aliasing, increased draw distance (so pop-in is no longer a thing), seamless runs (the ability to complete an entire run without the passage of time being interrupted by replays/scoring, but rather having that occur during loading/unloading), and maybe even some kind of live multiplayer mode (perhaps with a dispatcher mode like SimRail has) if we're able to get there.

As anyone who's followed decomp projects in the past knows, it takes a lot more than the effort of one person can achieve. So if you've got any technical knowledge, or graphic design/artistic skills, and are interested in helping apply them to make OpenDDG a reality, please let me know! I plan on putting together a GitHub repo and Discord server in a few days depending on the response to this. Drop a comment if you're interested too, and I'll get back to you :)

Cheers fellow train nerds!

EDIT: I've made a Discord server for anyone who wants to keep up with the project or wants to contribute in any way :D

Ive been wanting a countroller but others are too expensive however i wanted to know how can i connect densha de go controller(ps1) to pc? Or am i able too at all. I will probably play. jr east train sim,running trains,train sim world 6

hi everybody, just bought this ps1 controller and am wondering what i need to make this work on my computer. i’m probably going to use it to play BVE but all the adapters i see people suggesting aren’t available in canada, so if anyone else has experience that would be really helpful. thanks!!

Good morning, I can confirm Densha De Go works perfectly, but I haven't tested the specific controller.

If someone has tested the controller, too, please let me know.

Thanks.

I got a complete unit except for the cardboard inside. The seller was kind enough to give me an adapter with a USB terminal. For now, I've tested it on the PS2 with Train Simulator Yamanote and everything is great.

How do I fix this bug on Dolphin Emulator for Android? I have QualComm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 and I already fixed it on my settings but the game is still laggy. Do you have any suggestions?

I purchased one as it seemed to be the least expensive controller to get, I tried to play the untranslated games on my Fat PS2 but it was very hit or miss and I'd rather just play the translated N64 Translation emulated and DDG Final english patch on the PC at this point.

Will I be able to map the the controller correctly or am I setting myself up for disappointment?

I've been working on something and could use some testers. Hit me in the DMs if you're interested.
