I need to update the old machine suggestions?
« on: July 21, 2005, 11:57:44 am »
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I need to rewire my control panel and I started thinking now would be a great time to upgrade.  I was debating what I should add or replace.

I was looking at adding either some p360 or better joysticks. Any suggestions? I need to clean my track ball as it doesn't roll for more than 2 seconds. Any guns working yet for the mame games? Any other new and cool things I should know about? I'm going through the forum but nothing has really jumped out.

For reference here is the old machine

Did you jump on the act-labs gun pre-order?

Trackball isn't SUPPOSED to roll for more than two seconds. Only like one model does that, it it doesn't roll for much longer than that, and ironically enough, the only games that use such mighty rolls only read the initial burst anyway.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

I didn't jump on the act labs guns yet. I heard that you could use gun con2 which i thought might be better.
