rotary joystick interface suppliers

sugarlicious:
I've gleaned some great information from these boards; such as: use Druin's rotary interface adapter for rotary joysticks.

Problem is it appears the website no longer takes orders.  Same for the MK64 website.

Are there any other suppliers for a mechanical rotary joystick interface?  Does anyone know if Druin's will be up and taking orders in the near future?

Those Ikari Warriors aren't playing themselves you know!

Thanks in advance.

My suggestion... having purchased and installed and played with a druins board, etc. ....
Add an optical spinner to your joystick instead. Even with a druins board it's still not a perfect experience, and the optical rotary can play more games than the mechanical ones.

thesmit:
I actually have a couple of these joysticks myself and when I was looking at putting them into a cab (that project is currently on hold), from what I can recall, I think there is a build specific of MAME that is actually made to support rotatable joysticks... I am not sure what it's called though, somthing like rotata-mame.... have a look around the boards...
Search for things like rotable mame, snk rotatable joystick, etc.... I think it is called an LS-30 or somthing similar to that.

Hope it helps,
Smit

I built my own rotary interface.
I think thesmit is thinking of MameAnalog
I had MameAnalog working a while back, but recently when I switched computers I got a newer version of MameAnalog, and I could not quite get the settings right.  Every now and then the soldier would turn an extra click.  I probably just didn't set it up right or maybe the analog settings are off.

That's the problem everyone has... they guys do extra clicks. It's maddening.
