DIY Evochron Keyboard Modification

Post by HazMatt »

I'm happy to announce the new DIY Evochron Mercenary Keyboard Mod project is finished!

This is a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) video and instruction manual that shows you how to build a common keyboard into a spaceship control panel for Evochron Mercenary.

* You no longer need to memorize important keyboard commands.
* Works for default or custom key bindings
* All materials are instant download. There's no shipping or waiting.

It's all here: DIY Flight Sims

Great stuff there mate.


But, I'm a little reluctant to pay any cash when I have to do all the work myself.

It's still a great add-on to the game thou!

I agree, but I still don't want to pay a dime when I have to do
all the work myself!

I'm glad you like it. DIY home cockpits have been an exciting part of the flight simulator community for years. I'm hoping the space simulator community is also interested.

You can plug in multiple USB keyboards and they will all work. You can have one keyboard for regular typing, and this modified keyboard for Evochron Mercenary.

agreed , but some of the stuff is pretty cool , gotta admit if i had some extra cash id'e have to try one out :P (that's a problem for future me) the one that caught my eye was the one that places the joystick and or the moniter.

Heh , lel
