Re: pic: 2011 Logomotion Field Simulation

is there a shortcut to exit when in full screen mode? being able to close it w/o using ctrl-alt-del would be a nice feature if it already does not exist.

anyway, i found the trick to making the most of it. i remapped a logitech dual action gamepad (PS2 style) to make it like modified arcade drive.

the left stick worked well out of the box, but what about the right? it's job is done by the mouse, so i remapped the right stick using the logitech utility to be the mouse when the simulator is run. i also turned down the range to keep it manageable.

i also remapped the following:

(button, command)
1, 1 (triangle tube)
2, 2 (circle tube)
3, 3 (square tube)
6, left click (hold/release tube, hide/center cursor)
9, r (reset game)
12 (right stick button), esc (show cursor)

it runs well with that setup... a fellow member who is a hardcore halo gamer did really well as the controls were similar to halo. i like it as well.

happy gaming!
