In Reply to: Do I really need a custom driver?? posted by ChrisW on 20, 2000 at 1:33 AM:
The gameport only has 4 axis and 4 buttons total. As for getting windows to recognize your second joystick, I don't know of any way to "remap" those axis to another controller.
: : To get windows to recognize it you will have to have a driver for it like everything else.
: Now I'm confused!
: I don't really understand all that I need to know to accomplish this by the sounds of things. I thought it would be a simple task of wiring up the 2 extra axes (which I've done) and setting up 2 controllers in Windows - 1 being a 4 button gamepad and the second being a 2 button gamepad.
: I have to experiment a bit more, but it doesn't help that the PC I'm trying to test on will not pick up a second controller when using a Y cable!
: What am I missing?
