Diet_Coke Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I picked up a TurboTwist 2 a while back (with the 7" mini-wheel) with the expectation that I could use it on racing games. However, as the wheel appears as a mouse I've found that that quite a few of the racing games I've got just don't work. I can control them fine with the joystick if I configure it that way, but that's not what I had in mind. Also, for some of the driving games that *do* work with the spinner I have found that the wheel is usually way too sensitive. What sensitivity levels have people found is useful for driving games?

LASooner Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I use Turbo Twist spinners for my driving games in MAME and Model 3 , for some reason the model 2 emulator can't seem to use it. There is an analog sensitivity setting in MAME, you'll have to play with this setting game to game to get the feel you're looking for. Also remember to adjust your mouse settings in windows, most importantly turn off mouse acceleration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diet_Coke Posted November 12, 2014 Author Share Posted November 12, 2014 Thanks for the info about the acceleration, I'll take a look. Most of my problems are outside of Mame - games like Burnout Paradise (I know, it's old but I love the crashes!) The spinner just flat-out doesn't work for turning left and right! I wish there was a way to, but I've yet to find it Thanks for paying attention to this post, btw. It was getting pretty low on the list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsymon Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Hello, I found this : http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/turn-your-mouse-into-a-joystick-for-pc-gaming/ I did'nt read everything, but it allows you to transform your mouse into a joystick ! So, for the spinner it's good I have the same spinner (Turbo Twist 2), two even, but I have'nt play with it, my cab' is still under construction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take a look and report back once a) I've gotten it working, or when I've been reduced to tears and a bucketful of expletives! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
