My Pinball Controller

Postby hootowls » Sat Sep 21, 2013 1:04 am

I built a pinball controller to use with my Mac specifically in anticipation of the return of Timeshock!

The buttons are assignable and I don't worry about how "enthusiastic" I get as compared to my keyboard.

More details over at the TPA forum.

thanks for that hootowls, thats awesome

I checked out the link

I found the iPac sight and they had a mac download but didn't work on lion, mountain lion and mavericks but contacted the guys and they will be releasing a new download.

Thanks again, this just made my idea realistic.

That's cool about the pending software update - thanks for checking on that, swinks. Until then, the iPAC still allows you to program the key assignments using a simple text editor, which I explain at that link. Still, it'll be nice when they release the updated Mac tool.

I got this link for a new update on the software from the iPac guys to suit lion, mountain lion and mavericks etc which is not a text editor so I think is easier.

"Hi,

We do have a new version of this program which is not yet on our website but
can be downloaded from here:
