Keypad/Gamepad

[vast junco]

Is there a chance wooting would ever make something like the Razer Orbweaver/Tartarus? Before mine broke (razer quality lmao) it was very nice to have all the thumb buttons, thumbstick, and the more ergonomic layout. I would love to have something like that with wooting's software, quality, and analog switches.

[digital wyvern]

nobody knows what the future might bring, but for now wooting focuses on keyboards ;)

[vast junco]

It is a keyboard… just half of it.

Just think of the thumb stick kind of like a nipple on laptop keyboards.

Or like really old keyboards for regular PCs’s

[digital wyvern]

it's called a trackpoint 😂

[vast junco]

[vast junco]

To be fair though, they made the uwu, which really isn’t a keyboard

Day 7 of asking for a wooting brand Razer Tartarus style gamepad.

[cedar ravine]

I'd look.... but I just bought a 60he that I'm waiting on so it'd have to be feature rich to consider. What do you like about that setup?
But! I AM here to support your struggle and spectate from my arm chair. 😛

[vast junco]

The functionality of having a thumb Dpad. Extra keys.

Also the more ergonomic layout vs a traditional keyboard, I just wish the thumb button was a little closer because it’s such a far reach with that stupid wrist rest in the way.

Tbh I might design my own custom keyboard version without the Hall effect switches. But that is why I’d want a wooting version, I’d even help design it if at all possible.

[cedar ravine]

Thanks for the explanation! I hope you do make one! Then at least you'd have a clearer picture for your design review with wooting 😛

[vast junco]

I will be back in a couple of days with maybe a finished design.

Day 8 of asking for a wooting brand Razer Tartarus style gamepad.

[cedar ravine]

I was getting worried.

[cedar ravine]

When you said you'd be back, I thought I was going to have to keep the flame lit...

[vast junco]

No, I just meant for the design portion, I’m partway done, I need to figure out some things.

Anyways I’ve got a 16oz Red Bull and a ton of work to do, so here I go!

Day 9 of asking for a wooting brand Razer Tartarus style gamepad.

[cedar ravine]

Are you going to post pics here when you get it done?

[vast junco]

Yes, however it’s taking a little bit of time to put my idea down on paper (aka CAD software).

[vast junco]

I’m almost done with the design of my own too, it should be done today or tomorrow Tuesday.

[placid tundra]

I would be interested as well, I just don't know if it would be worth the investment for them.

[nocturne temple]

Please stop.

[cedar ravine]

Dude's just keeping a little flame lit in a tiny corner of the internet.

🕯️

[cedar ravine]

The dream... is dead.

But then.... Even if they had this candle lit... people would want to shift the keys 5mm to the right anyway and it'd be ruined

[vast junco]

It’s alright, even though I was told to stop my endeavor (even though plenty of other people do exactly what I’m doing and don’t get anything said to them). I’ll just have to spend the couple hundred dollars in prototypes for a standard MX version of my own design.

[cedar ravine]

Turn down the salt. They'll get there eventually, I'm sure. But it wouldn't have been inside your timeframe anyway

[vast junco]

I’m not salty, just disappointed that they didn’t play along, maybe it’s because I mentioned Razer? Idk.

[cedar ravine]

Heard.
Likely just busy running a company and everytime this channel bings... someone has to look at it.
It's a part of their model

[vast junco]

It’s once a day tho

[cedar ravine]

🤷‍♂️

[vast junco]

I was told to basically necrothread, so 2 years later I am once again asking for a gamepad that is more ergonomic than razer’s offerings.

[hot onyx]

In 1201 years, 7 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 5 hours, 29 minutes, and 42 seconds left we will get it

It will all be over soon

[vast junco]

Maybe my 30-greats grandchildren will get to see it
