Title: Possible joystick to hack for 2.85!
Post by: Lilwolf on March 11, 2003, 02:41:56 pm

17 buttons and an analog stick!  Might be a good start for some

but for 2.85... if it doesn't... who cares!

I just ordered from them 2 Interact Raider joysticks.  Their handles seems the same than the Raider Pro.  At $1.60 each, I've got nothing much to lose.

Actually I think its standard 15pin gameport only - which may mean that there is some software drivers handling inputs?? also note that it doesn't work in NT/2K/XP.

Just gameport plus keyboard.  but it 'should' not have ghosting issues since it's on a joystick and expecting them all the be pushed together.
