Happs Trackball Question!
« on: May 23, 2009, 04:35:16 pm »
This weekend I was testing out my control panel and it seems I mounted the trackball in the wrong direction. Instead of mounting the roller ball with the arrow facing in the up position, it is pointing to the left.

I already have it mounted and sealed up with bondo and there is no way I can spin it around to the right direction. Do you know if there is a way in Mame or Windows XP that I can change the direction on the roller ball.

If not, I am screwed!  :banghead: Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here is a picture of the trackball in case you need a visual.

Swap the plugs on the optic boards, then you should be OK. If the axes are correct but the direction is reversed, you can reverse it in MAME.

Does it make a difference if it is USB?
