Re: New run of orbshields

OK I got it working :) Switching ports did it. Thanks!



So I pulled up Descent and started messing with it...DANG this thing is hard to control!

Re: New run of orbshields

OK, so I've gotten my Orbotron and my Spaceball 4000FLX and I'm trying to get it working. I downloaded Arduino 1.0.3 and copied the files to hardware and libraries like the readme says. I also set the board to Orbotron 9000. Then I loaded up BasicJoystick and changed SpaceOrb360 to SpaceBall4000. Bu...

Re: New run of orbshields

Order placed! :)



And just to make sure...do I need any special cable or something to change the programming to spaceball instead of spaceorb?



EDIT: I'll be using this for Star Citizen. Am I the only one crazy excited about that game? lol

Re: New run of orbshields

OK, cool! I've ordered a Spaceorb 4000 FLX. When will the orbotrons be back in stock?

Re: New run of orbshields

I was under the impression that the 5000 was slightly better?



If not, I'll just go with a 4000FLX :)

Re: New run of orbshields

Do any of you have a Spaceball 5000 (Magellan) that you'd be willing to part with? (I'm having trouble finding one on Ebay for a decent price).

Re: New run of orbshields

Is this a "real" 5000, or a rebranded 4000? http://www.ebay.com/itm/HP-Compaq-Spaceball-5000-FLX-A-112137-002-331526-001-1583-/121124510880?pt=Mice&hash=item1c33955ca0

Re: New run of orbshields

So you would suggest the spaceorb and a keyboard for gaming? How can I hold the controller if I'm using the keyboard as well? Or do you mean you don't have a hand on each at the same time? And finally: How does a Spacenavigator do for gaming? Thanks! Also, how is the spaceorb for fine aiming? And is...

Re: New run of orbshields

So would it be better to get a Spaceorb 5000 with USB or a 5000 with serial and use the orbotron 9000?



Also would y'all suggest a 360 or a Spaceorb 5000 for gaming? I think I like the idea of using one hand on the keyboard and one on the Spaceorb. Will that work well?



Thanks!

Re: New run of orbshields

Just curious...will the Orbotron 9000 work with a SpaceBall 4000?



(I wanna use it for Descent, Retrovirus, I-War 2, etc.)
