Sounds like you've been doing your homework if you already know you need a different optic for your Tron and DOT spinners. There is another option, that won't force you to buy new optics, you can hack the originals: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=41803.0 As for interfacing your trackball(s) and spinner(s), there's the previously mentioned Opti-Pac and Mini-Pac, and there's also the Opti-Wiz from www.groovygamegear.com. Or you can hack some mice. I always find that everything uses twice as much wire as I anticipated. I also always find that everything takes ten times as much time and money as I anticipated! ;) |

Kremmit - I bought an optic board for the Tron spinner as the original wasn't there when I purchased it. I bought 2 of them from fixumdude so I'd have a spare. I made a bracket and mounted one after receiving them today (shown below). "As for interfacing your trackball(s) and spinner(s), there's the previously mentioned Opti-Pac and Mini-Pac, and there's also the Opti-Wiz from www.groovygamegear.com. Or you can hack some mice." I was looking at the Opti-Wiz page. My question is do you have to have an Opti-Wiz for each device? ie...1 for the trackball and a seperate one for the spinner? The description was a little confusing to me. Thanks again for everyones help. Encryptor |
