i just got dead space 2 but i'm so disappointed

Gareth, what condition do you suffer from? Can you move your neck or feet? Do you play driving games in the same way?
i have cerebal palsy from birth.. yes i can move my neck and feet but i can't control my movements of my arms, hands, legs, also can't speak much. yep i play driving games in the same way with a xbox360 controller.

Did you look at the track noIR? linked in me last post? though saying that it may be no good for you? as it would track your head movements and you use your head for control so in light of that free track would be better maybe as you could attach an LED array on your feet.

If you do go the wii mote route make sure the blue tooth dongle you get works with the wii mote as the first one I got did not :(.
i have a belkin blue tooth dongle it is about 3 year old

yeah i looked at the link but i think that'll be a problem because when i use the mouse or pad..
 
Yeah obviously the nun-chuck (one on left) is not used but like I said I cant say if it will work or not as there not official Nintendo ones.

If you know some one with a Wii would they lend you a wii mote as you dont have to modify it in any way.

that way you can test your blue tooth dongle works to :).

But you still need to make an LED array though if you want I can help.
i know someone with a wii i'll ask her at the weekend

theses LED array do anywhere sell them?
 
Ummm not that I know of in the layout required unless the track IR ones work with free track they should do.

but ******s sell leds that's where I got mine from but then ya need to solder and build the LED array.

I may be able to come up with some thing but it wont be for a while (personal reasons) but I will see if I can mock some thing up for ya.

So it will be used on your foot yes?.

EDIT
Oh damn yes its stared that out hahaha forgot they sell the same stuff sort of.

If ya have a STEAM account or some other means to chat link me matey.
yeah it'll be for my foot. if u could do a detail layout or something and email me it . i could ask my gf dad to solder and build it.

theres no hurry mate..

i have msn, steam, yahoo,

Sorry Gareth can't remember if I've asked you in the past but can you use your feet to press a button.

You probably remember i live in Leicester after our conversations about the 790-fxta mobo and i know you like to be as independent as possible but if you ever need a hand sorting out a rig or making any custom items to make your gaming experience better then give me a shout. Joiner by trade so rather handy with that side of things as well as electronics.
i haven't really tried but i guess i could press a button with my feet...

also thank u very much for being kind, i'll keep that in mind.
 
i have been searching the net last night for hardware to help people like myself. some of the things are like £500-900+, i for one don't have that kind of money. surely if the hardware is to help people like myself, it some be priceed at a reasonable price?

maybe i'll ask my social worker tomorrow to see if they can do anything.

Hats off to you Gareth, truly inspirational thread, nice to see people trying to help out :)

Have you posted anything like this on the website forums for dead space 2? The developers need to be aware of these sort of issues, and until its brought to their attention it will be overlooked.

Its such a simple request to allow controls to be assigned to different buttons etc

And its nice to see people banding together to help out to overcome this challenge, it makes up for all the crap thats posted about on message boards across the interenet

Good luck!
thanks mate..

i will post all this on the dead space 2 forum later today
