That poor microswitch is gona get beat to death - heh

Anyway... I think we should all write mails to the author of visual pinball to get true analog support for plungers.

You could then use either an analog joystick hack - by using a pot with a gear system... or hack a mouse to make an optical wheel system. Either would be pretty simple to make...

Also, displaying a pinball table vertically (rotate monitor)would be a great addition... as youd have a lot more screen to look at.

I emailed once... but got no responce. Maybe if a lot more people mail for these features... they might be added soon.

So much for trying to do something original and unique, huh?

I think I'll still be trying to mount the switch on the other end of the shaft. If that doesn't work, sure looks like that will.

I think it's time for an Analog+ version of PinMAME.. it's usually pretty hard to get emu authors to add these kinds of things, it seems.
