Steering Wheel Control Help

[bkenobi]

I have just finished building my new driving cabinet and am in the process of setting up the software. It's an old Championship Sprint cabinet, so it has a pair of 360° steering wheels (mouse hack), a pair of analog pedals (Dual Strike hack), and two CP and 2 coin buttons (Dual Strike buttons 1-4). I am having a little problem setting up the pedals to keep from auto scrolling the list (a joystick centering issue), but that's not my question.

How do you set up a spinner or 360° steering wheel so that rotating the wheel (moving the mouse x- or y-axis) moves the selection up or down in the list? If one wheel was mapped to the scroll wheel, I could use it to move the list up and down, but it doesn't select games. I know there are people out there with spinners using GameEx, so perhaps one of you could suggest a solution.

Oh, and if someone with a Dual Strike pedal setup has any advice on getting the axis setup correctly, PLEASE don't hesitate from chiming in!

THANKS ALL!

I don't have a spinner or wheel but there's a program that I remember seeing called Mouse2Key that may be of some help to you

There are a few screenshots of it here:

I've never used it myself so I can't help you with it but it looks the part from the screenshots

I'll take a look. Any ideas on the gamepad axis centering? Thanks!

This is more or less to close this topic for anyone who searches the thread in the future. The Mouse2Key program above maps keyboard buttons to mouse movements as near as I can tell. I was able to put together a fairly simple AutoHotKey script to grab the mouse movement and convert it into arrow key presses. I included a dead zone and a mouse speed threshold (sort of like mouse acceleration). I will try to remember to post the script in case anyone has use for it. I'm at work now, so that will have to happen later.
