I just received my first control panel draft.. it has two push buttons for the trackball. Do I need any pushbuttons at all? I'm not too familiar with trackball games, so if I don't need the buttons I'd rather not have them on there. I won't be using the trackball as a mouse. -shatered |

u can just use buttons allready on your control panel |
| shateredsoul:
ok, but what do the buttons do? I mean... I vaguely remember playing shooters with it so I imagine some games use one button as a shooting buttons, but do you ever need two pushbuttons for a trackball button? Here's the layout |
| Comtek:
instead of using those ones since you say you dont really want them on your CP you can just map the buttons for fire or whatever else is needed to any other button some games use more than 2 buttons so if you wanted to play any of the following arcadecl.zip champbwl.zip cubeqst.zip dynobop.zip missile.zip missile2.zip slikshot16.zip slikshot17.zip slikshot.zip suprmatk.zip suprmatkd.zip they use 3 buttons so you will have to map buttons anyway |

I put 3 mouse buttons with the trackball. For MAME it's not relevant, but to use the trackball as a mouse, you need at least 1 mouse button, preferably 2. |
