Title: Forgotten Worlds setup
Post by: jlfreund on January 08, 2012, 01:29:09 pm
Hi, I just put together a new CP with a Happ rotary (not the optical one) and GGG TurboTwist Push Pull Spinner.

I am not exactly sure what the game is supposed to do or how to set it up.  Currently I have
Dial Analog = Mouse X ; This spins the direction of the gun/shield
P1 Button1 = Mouse B0 ; This shoots the gun with spinner Push

I'm not sure if there is a control to rotate the position of the gun (move it around the player as a shield).  If so, I guess the rotary joystick would be good for that.

BTW, is there a good general or specific Dial Digital Speed or Dial Sensitivity for this spinner?

I’m pretty sure digital speed only comes into play when you’re trying to use a digital controller (i.e. a standard joystick) to control a game that expects an analog input.  The “speed” refers to how quickly the simulated analog signal “ramps up” to peak value.  If you have a spinner to use, then I’m not sure why you’d need to be concerned with digital speed. 

As for sensitivity, just tweak it until you like the feel of the gameplay.
