| wheel / yoke for road blasters? |

I did see where somebody added an encoder wheel and a set of optics to the back of their SW yoke just for RoadBlasters. They said it worked fine. |

The only thing you can't simulate with the change is the "missing spoke" and "missed read of a spoke/gap" errors, AFAIK. ;) Adding the optical to the yoke, OTOH, might feel closer to the original sensitivity / angle turned than from the POT side (for reasons of deadzone, progressive/logrithmic scaling, early max, etc, which differents from wheel to wheel, and driver to driver settings). The one line is in src/drivers/atarisy1.c, line 661: INPUT_PORTS_START( roadblst ) PORT_START /* F20000 */ PORT_BIT( 0xff, 0x40, IPT_PADDLE ) PORT_MINMAX(0x00,0x7f) PORT_SENSITIVITY(25) PORT_KEYDELTA(10) PORT_REVERSE PORT_START /* F40000 */ "IPT_DIAL" changed to "IPT_PADDLE" |
