Happ makes a mechanical rotary joy, they can be had used for less than the LS-30. Wico used to make some, too, they pop up on ebay once in a while. There are also optical rotary sticks out there, and the diy rotarys that Shape D. linked to are optical as well. Optical rotarys can be used to play mechanical rotary games, although some (including myself) don't think they feel right. Mechanical rotarys will not play optical rotary games, or at least will not play them well. Here's a list of rotary games I put together out of a long older thread.: kari Warriors Victory Road Heavy Barrel Gondomania Bermuda Triangle Time Soldiers Guerilla War SAR - Search And Rescue Downtown Legendary Wings Victory Road Midnight Resistance Ikari III - The Rescue Exterminator TNK III Touchdown Fever Caliber 50 (used optical rotary sticks, wouldn't play well if at all with mechanicals) I make no claim as to the accuracy or completeness of this list, like I say, I just put it together from an earlier thread. corrections/additions welcomed! Optical rotary sticks like the ones used on Cal .50, and the Build-Your-Own project sticks found on this board connect through an Opti-Pac, mouse hack, or other such stuff, same as a spinner. Mechanical rotary sticks can connect through the Druin's interface , or can be connected directly through your keyboard encoder if you use MAME Analog+. Direct connection uses up 12 extra inputs on your encoder per stick, but provides the most accurate game play. Direct connection is only working for some games (so far). re: Xybots Xybots sometimes gets listed as a rotary game, but it used a unique Twist-To-Turn stick. The stick did not rotate, but could be twisted a little ways- then it would spring back to center when you stopped twisting. Twist right and let go once, and your charachter turned 90 degrees to the right. Repeat, and you've turned 180 degrees.. and so on. You could get Xybots working fine with a mechanical rotary and a Druins, or using "Rotate Right" and "Rotate Left" buttons, or even an original Xybots stick- but I don't think it would work very well with an optical rotary. |
