I was wondering if perhaps some of the players can share their settings they used for the games listed below (analog/mouse) that is. Especially German Krol. I've been having a hard time finding the best controllable settings for games that use a mouse in place of a paddle. I still am having trouble finding a paddle controller for the pc and at this point, I'm willing to spend what ever it takes to get one. I'm still working on trying to convert a original arcade paddle controller to pc format but the price and labor for me to do it is more then I anticipated. Thanks!

1) Arkanoid (original) 2) Arkanoid 2 3) Avalanche 4) Tron 5) Frontline 6) Kickman 7) Marble Maddness 8) Crystal Castles 9) Warlords 10) Centipede 11) Millipede

This is all I can think of right now. ^_^

I usually spend about 15-20 minutes tweaking the control settings before trying to play a game of Kickman. I've found that the mouse settings between any 2 computers seem to differ a great deal, and that there's just no exact science to setting the controls, it's just a feel thing.

As for Marble Madness, I just kind of went with how the defaults were set and did it. The scores that I've submitted for Marble are extremely poor... but I've had no reason to beat them yet.

Good luck.
