Those are the numeric values for the mouse that I use in the Mame code that result in the skateboarder pointing in the said direction. However, it doesn't work quite like that because it's a spinner and uses values that increase/decrease as you spin around and around (that was just a good hack to use for the 8way joystick which doesn't work with the analog joystick, darnitall).

can this spinner be used for frontlines by chance?

I only just spotted this thread - once again WOW, great work Oscar :)
I'm kinda glad I haven't got round to mounting my Oscar Pro now...
Quick question: Will the leaf switches be interface-able to the USB mouse board out-of-the-box? Or will we just solder the switches to the mouse button switches? Either way, it would be good (for me) to not have to use the IPAC.
Lilwolf:
Sorry no. Frontline uses a special controller thats basically an 8way joysticks that is always pointing in a direction. It would need a mouse interface to be used with a 720 interface... And without a way to sync it, it wouldn't be all that useful. Currently there isn't any good solutions. A SNK 12 way might work at some point, but you would have to modify the driver to take "L" and "R" buttons instead of up, down, left, right.

OSCAR:
The leaf switches could certainly be attached to the USB mouse buttons. I have been considering making the mouse buttons prewired with female quick disconnects an option. This seems like it could be a good compliment to the DOT spinner so it could be interfaced completely through the USB mouse.
And yes, Lilwolf is correct. Unfortunately Frontline does not accept an analog input for the rotation.
