I bought an adapter off of amazon so i wouldnt have to play all the games with a dumbass keyboard... but the stupid ass software that allows you to adjust the controls wont allow me to adjust the thumb pad or the analog stick! im on my last nerve cuzz i waited a week to get the adapter and now it doesnt even work!
MAN im irritated and confused...

Any suggestions??? any preset controller plugins that i can just download and put in the Plugins folder???

What software is that?

And I think you can configure your controller on the emulator itself. Go to Config> Game Pad> choose the pad you want to configure > map the plugin with your controller buttons and don't forget to change the combo box to Digital/Analog (F5).

Dude, i did all that... and as for what kind of software, i have no idea it all depends on what comes with the emulator as a default i guess... hell i dont remember downloading any software for the controls...

Hmm, but is the ePSXe plugin controller recognizing your joystick?

You can also try Joy2Key, to map the keyboard/mouse to your joystick http://www.electracode.com/4/joy2key/Joy...ersion.htm

Thats the thing though! i can get the Box/X/Triangle/Circle buttons to work fine but i cant adjust the damn thumb pads or the Analog sticks! i go to click the Boxs to edit them and they just turn to "J2_RIGHT"...

Probably your joystick problem. Try check it in control panel to make sure it OK. Or maybe driver problem.

???

Joystick??? im not using a joystick.

I checked it in the control panel and it says its ok...
No problems with a driver...
I think its just ePSXe...

Theres got to be a way to get around this...

Im trying to use this software thats meant for joysticks that MireTank suggested... not sure where to start with this thing...


eeeesh.....

Well I gotta say I can't use my analog sticks on ePSXe, but only the d-pad. I never cared about PSX emulation if not to play FF games or other RPGs and they, at they most, will not require the analogs.

Cloud9, did you read the page? It has a good setup walkthrough to make the s**t working... Select one joystick button (thats the hardest part: to know your button numeration. most of times the triangle button is the Button 1, you can check better on the "Game contrllers" option on the control panel (or smth like that, my windows is not english). Once you found what button you're dealing with, select a keyboard key that will correspond to the Button you're configuring on the joy2key. like this:

Button 1, is the triangle. Set Triangle button to the "V" key on the keyboard. Go to your epsxe pad config and set up the triangle button to the 'V' key. Now everytime you press the Button 1 in your keyboard, it will act like if you were pressing the V key directly in your keyboard!

soooo....... what corresponds with the thumbpad?!

i think your onto something...

thumbpad = directional pad?

well i think i am just had my sleep medicine... so i really NEED to go to bed. dont worry, your issue will be solved in no time. while we cant help you, you can feel at home, have some walkaround and get some cookies. just dont get the chocolate ones. they are mine. >=(

man... i just realized...

I started setting up Joystick 1 with the buttons... W-A-S-D for movement cuzz thats what i use in the emulation... but then when i work on the other half where i translate it to work with the Usb controller... it doesnt even respond!! i hold down the Traingle button i messed around with it a lil... damn... im confused... any ideas???

Have you tried using a different emulator and a pad plugin, like PSXeven and Harakiri's plugin for example?

do i have to use a different emulator to use those plugins...? cuz i got ePSXe set up just right when it comes to anything involving the video/sound settings... it would suck if i have to swap...
