encorporate trackball with game select

[katuuuz]

hey tom, long time now talk. i was thinking it'd be a lot faster to scroll through games if you can use the trackball to do so. i understand the mouse is the trackball, but is there a way to get rid of the mouse all together and have the trackball act as the down scroll? and have it scroll down as fast as you turn it? if you need me to be more specific, just pm me, or email me.

I'd like to second this request. My concern would be navigating the "side" menus. Currently I use the "Cab Control Setting" and I wonder if this could be used with mouse scroll as well. Not sure if that makes sense, but I really like Katuuuz idea.

Me too. I know I can use the joystick to manuver and navigate the menu, but I always reach for the trackball. I know there is up and down arrows to click on to scroll up and down in most themes but I think it would be cooler and easier for my guests to figure out if the mouse continually scrolled the list. This could also lead to new themes where side scrolling would be un-necessary. Sometimes simpler is better.

Me three.

This seems to be a better thread than mine, so...

Me also!

Has anyone considered writing a small plugin to take analog commands and turn them into what GameEx wants from the joystick? I was also thinking the JoyToKey or PPJoy might work for this, but my driving cab isn't running, so I can't try the 360° wheels.
