ok, i think im confused... so this takes the optical data and translates it to an equivilent analog pot value?? so you can not use it as a true optical switch set w/ analog + ??? |

Yes. No need for analog+ (other then ALL the other advantages).. but it's just considered an analog joystick. And should work great for the PC version of Blitz ect along with mame. (still waiting for the mine in the mail! I'm VERY !@#!@#$ EXCITED to play sinistar with a REAL sinistar joystick... the 8ways really killed the game! --- Quote from: Xiaou2 on April 22, 2004, 03:11:45 am ---ok, i think im confused... so this takes the optical data and translates it to an equivilent analog pot value?? so you can not use it as a true optical switch set w/ analog + ??? --- End quote --- |

Oh well, I forgot to mention that I do have a pair of Cinemtronics spring loaded analog baseball sticks to test. |

I have one myself but I'm in two minds whether to use it or not now - I just obtained a yoke ;D |
