Recommend Mouse adaptor?

Angus · Yesterday, 15:04

Hi all,
I've been using a Cocolino mouse adaptor with Freewheel and an optical mouse.

Although it works fine within Workbench I noticed that in a WHDLoad game eg Sreel Empire/Cyber Empires it does not recognise a sustained press of the button (required to move the map window around). I don't know if it ever did or if this is something that has broken at some point.

Anyway, I wondered if anybody had recommendations for a replacement - or indeed if anybody else has encountered similar problems.

Cheers.

Thanks for that, a worthwhile read, although it doesn't deal with the problem I am having.

the tikus is the best by far
also being very small It does not hinder the connection if you have a joystick connected or another joystick adapter
you can get it here

Tikus is so small it almost makes me forgive the A600 design where the cord sticks out right into the path of the mouse!
