With emu+ mame it allows 2 trackballs if you boot up in DOS with a special mouse driver. How could you get mame to use a third trackball that would allow 3 players? I know that you can add many mice/trackballs with them all controlling the same mouse pointer but that wouldn't help in a game that needs seperate controls at the same time like Atari 4-player football. I have never heard of anyone actually getting 4 trackballs (or 3) to work at the same time in a mame game like this. Thanks for any insight into this. Chris
: You would be limited 3 trackballs (1 PS/2, 2 serial, not counting USB) due to the number of ports you can hook them to. You could buy a card to give you some more serial ports though which would increase the number of trackballs you could have.
