Why does my trackball only work with some games?

Recommended Posts

Hi! I have the following trackball problems:

My trackball works perfectly with some games, like Cameltry, Marble Madness (more or less here, I would say, it works but it's not as accurate and reactive as I think it should be) or Megatouch 7.

With other games, like Missile Command, the trackball doesn't work at all.

Checking "Analog Controls" in the respective games, the Megatouch game officially uses a "Lightgun", Marble Madness has a "Track" X and Y listed, and Cameltry a "Dial". Missile Command also has a "Track".

What can be the problem here, am I missing something? Who could help..? Thanks in advance!

Try deleting missile.cfg if you have it (basically start fresh for that game).  Then start the game and go into the configuration for inputs and check that up/down left/right analog is set to mouse (x and y respectively).  At least that's how the trackball on my cab is working.

When you're in analog controls for the game, you should be able to adjust the sensitivity up to make it more responsive/reactive.
