Randygland | Ok, really like some help with Xwing specifically... How do you make it so that the firebuttons on the joystick/joypad actually fire the guns,,, at the moment i have to use the stick to control and enter on the keyboard to fire! :-( |

blastradius14 | Well, it seems to like the four buttons on the right for Tyrian 2000. But thats just the beginning of it. Other games, like Crusader: No Regret/Remorse use more than 2 buttons. Of course, this is a Gamepad, not a joystick. I have a Gravis Blackhawk Digital that I could see if it gets multiple buttons. |

you didn't map those to keys ? as joysticks in dos only had 2 buttons. you could get 4 if you borrowed 2 from the other joystick. But 10 isn't possiible |

First, calibrate it in windows. Then, make sure the game you are playing sets "Joystick" or "Gamepad" or something similar Then, if the game itself has a joystick calibration utility, run THAT with dosbox before running the game. Often the games themselves allow you to change what buttons can be used. I play several games with dos box that use all 10 buttons on my USB Gravis Gamepad Pro. Don't know what you are talking about Data :blink: |

uhm you can't configure it at the moment. (0.63) and do remember that gamepads in dosbox have only 2 buttons. |

Hi there, At the end of the superb dosbox tutorial, a reference is made to an advanced tutorial for configuration and somthing about Dfend. I couldn't find a link to these tutorials though, only to the basic one. Specifically I wanted to find out how to configure my Joypad;s so that I could play games like xwing using the buttons to shoot, switch target and maintain sheilds.. For example, the dosbox finds my joypads fine (something i was very pleasantly surprised about) as they are ps2 joypads plugged into a usb adaptor... However, whilst I can manouver my ship in xwing, none of the buttons do anything like shooting, so i have to use the stick to move and enter on the keyboard to fire... Can I configure the joypad in the advanced configuration of dosbox? and if so HOW!? Many thanks, and keep up the good work... I am well enjoying playing my old favourites again!. |
