wheel for racing

(1/3) > >>

fojam:
a lot of mp3 players have the scrolling wheel thing.

a new plugin for rockbox could be a racing game that uses mp3 player wheels as the steering wheel.
the car would automatically go, you would just lke have to avoid obstactles and things

karashata:
It's a nice idea, but what about everybody who owns a DAP without a scroll wheel..? We wouldn't be able to do anything with a game like that...

Though, I suppose the keymap could be altered for all those targets to use left and right keypresses rather than a scrollwheel...

Though that would still potentially pose problems with DAPs without a reasonable button layout for left and right keypresses (off the top of my head I can't think of any though...)

fojam:
you could adapt the controls to whatever kind of buttons they have

I mean a new plugin would be great. How come they never make any new plugins?

karashata:
Rockbox is a replacement firmware for digital audio players, therefore development primarily focuses on such. Plugins are created more by interested individuals who have some free time and programming experience and want to contribute something to the project.

fojam:
well im not any good at coding. do you know where i could find someone to make a .rock file of it for the fuze 2?
