PS/2 trackball illuminated version
« on: September 09, 2014, 12:14:55 pm »
I picked up one of them cheap PS/2 trackballs that Sparkfun sells...the one with a user changeable illuminated ball.

For those that have one would you care to share the optimal sensitivity/speed settings in MAME for games like Centipede, Missile Command?

I can't get it to work properly with Golden Tee.  Ie. I roll the ball back and the ball just tees off.

Thanks

works great for centipede, millipede, And missile command.
bowling & golf games do need some kind of adjustment.
Probably in the in game menu but, I couldn't see playing golden tee with one of these often since they don't roll all that well.

I found a used 3" trackball off ebay for that. :)
