Hmm, not familiar with amiga joysticks, but the pc game port only allows 4 analog axis inputs and 4 digital button inputs. I suppose with the guts of a gamepad you could convert your digital movements into the analog inputs expected...
Otherwise you would have to hook the joystick up to the 4 button inputs, but then you would have a joystick with no buttons. :(


: Hi,
: I have an old "starcurser" Amiga digital joystick and want to rewire it to a 15 pin pc game port plug, can this be done easily? and if so could somebody point towards some sort of documentation on how to do it.
: thanx
