I just added a spinner to my cab, a mouse hack. From other threads I have learned the whole arkanoid spinner difference, gearing etc. I there a setting in mame to help it play better, or just push the mouse acceleration way up? I have to agree as it is now it is almost not playable. thanks |

That would be 2 trackballs (each with its own x and y axes) or 4 spinners (since they only have one axis each). It auto-detects which ones are active (there's some time out where it re-evaluates this but I can't remember what). Believe it or not, there IS a 4 spinner game. Warlords. Funky, old graphics, but I would say it's a very fun game. Great party game. I am specifically making 4 spinners just to play this game. Check it out. Cheers, Rock |

I recently added a second Oscar pro spinner. I have an Opti-Pac This post in December was about Dual Spinners. It has links to four topics about dual spinners. http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=47496.0 Based on these discussions I have configured the following games for dual spinners. They are more entertaining with two players. Paddle games Arkanoid Returns Off the Wall(Atari) Off the Wall (Bally Sente) Warlords Pop'n Bounce Plump Pop VS Blok Breaker Flying Blasteroids Two Tigers Driving Championship Super Sprint Demolition Derby Super Sprint Ironman Ivan Stewart's Super Off-Road Ironman Stewart's Super Off-Road Track Pack Danny Sullivan's Indy Heat Bad Lands and Puzzloop |
