Ram Controls Yoke - The circle is complete!

<< < (8/30) > >>

Man, just when I thought I was nearing the end of my expenses for my cabinet, I see this. Now Return of the Jedi is one of my most favorite arcade games of all time, and Road Blasters and Stun Runner are fun too, so dang it I'm going to have to get one of these now!  :banghead: I just received my Tron control panel in the mail 2 days ago which obviously will be used solely for Tron. I have a sort of swappable control panel set up as well, but I designed it so only pieces of my control panel are swappable, so I won't have to remove the whole top to switch controls. This is turning out to be a neverending project. Some games you just have to have the original controls though, and this is no exception. Let us all know how well it works.

Last time I looked was a few versions ago, but it didn't work :(

I played with the code and got it to work to a degree, but I think the game resets the position of the car after crashes etc, so it gets out of sync with the controller. I don't even see how the original optical, limited travel controller would stay in sync  ???

Worth a try. Push forward to accelerate, steer left and right. Ultimately, I don't care if it works because I have a real driving cabinet anyways; Race Drivin Cockpit!

Oh well, Havok can claim to have the prototype! Even cooler.

I think that reveals that assembling these things is a "beeyotch" and Dave hasn't had time to do so.

Ok, it's no wonder that I did not win the cyber cookie.  

If you look close at Dave's proto you see a scratch on it, but you don't see it in Havok's pictures. Dave could have touched it up with some paint, or maybe he actually sent Havok a production unit.
