Hello, everyone. I've spent about the past hour searching for a decent program that will allow you to remap keys on the keyboard to a controller. I couldn't find ANYTHING. In the search I tried controller, joystick, joypad, gamepad, keyboard mapper, remapper, re-mapper, joystick software, and various other combinations. I also tried that joystick 2 mouse software that is available in the FAQ, but it is full of bugs. It wouldn't recognize 'left' on the D-Pad on my Micro&#36uck Sidewinder for some reason, and if you try to map 1-10 from the Numeric Keypad to a button, it throws in extra keys for some reason e.g. instead of just '3' it would do like 'd3d' or some shit. I would just use the software that came with the controller, but unfortunately it will not allow you to map any keys to the D-Pad. So if any one knows where you can get something that's worth a shit, please reply to this post. Thanks in advance.
