Solder wires to an AVR (running KADE firmware) or get a KADE for the buttons -- fully customizable. I think Jon is also working on a firmware that will allow KADE to accept raw optical inputs from a trackball -- haven't heard how that's coming along. Scott |

Cheers PL1, will look into this too! |

I have two trackballs on my cab. Both are Xarcade 3-inch USB trackballs. I'm running WinXP and it handles two USB mice just fine. In fact I think at one point I had one via PS2 connector and one on USB. Both have three buttons on them as well that work fine as a mouse for maintenance on the PC. I have two rotary 8way leaf switch joysticks connected to an old iPac2 (PS2 keybd interface) and an old board that converts the 12 position rotary switch in the joystick to a keypress on the iPac. All of it plays together fine. I also find dual trackballs are great for two player gun games like T2, Op Wolf, Spacegun, etc. if you don't have lightguns. |

Windows can handle 8 analog axes at once IIRC. Plug'em in! |

Hmm, spend money or don't spend money, tough call! Will certainly give it a try :applaud: |
