Is it possible to hot key TS to say like an old game port controller? I was having a hard time remembering what mouse moved me and what mouse was on the TS computer. There is no way I am going to try having 2 keyboards next to each other.

Or even some type of cheap keypad that I could use as a foot switch would work. I just need to know if it is possible to use the game/midi port as I can build something easy for that as I have tons of old school not USB controllers laying about.

I can't simply use the old controllers because they aren't exactly small, so I didn't bother to dig them out to check. Thought maybe someone else has done this or tired it and could shed some light on hot keys for me to save time and aggravation trying something that doesn't work.

Forgot to mention that I use my home LAN BF server to run TS on and not on the same machine I play on. Makes it nice to look things up or see whos talking when I hear a new voice.

Ryan any thoughts? I would have thought you would have tried something like this and would have had an idea if it worked or not.

I don't really want to hack up a cable or 2 only to find out I have a nicely cut cable that won't do what I would like it to do. I suppose I could get out an old usb keyboard and put it on the floor but that would take up more room than I really wanted.

I think the best option would be to install software that maps a gamepad or pedal to a specific key on the keyboard. Something like keypad 9 or something useless. Then set that as Push To Talk button (or some other key) and that would work.

I do not believe TS has built in joystick support.

Ok thats what I needed to know. Thanks Ryan.
