JoyToKey Programming your stick for key presses

[BBloke]

This is for Pooka and anyone that is interested in using your joystick or other game controller to simulate keypresses on your keyboard.

can you not simply assign those functions within the game itself.

For example....

I'm using a MS FFB2 stick and X45 throttle

In order to assign cannons/rockets/MG/etc to any of the buttons I simply scrolled down the list found the command and pressed the button on my stick....voila..assignment done.

This even worked for my HAT.....I use the hat (up/down) for mixture and the hat (left/right) for my prop pitch.

There was no need for a third party application to do this assigning for me.

Its not an ingame funciton thats being assigned.

[Pooka]

Thanks for the quick response Chris, I'll peruse over this information and very likely

set up a time to meet on TS.

@ Pooka,

The Saitek SST programming software will also allow you to assign that F12 function key a one of you joystick buttons........even mouse buttons

I have my TeamSpeak PTT button assigned to the roller wheel on my mouse.

Pook has a MSFFB and a CH Pro Throttle. Same as me.

Both those have very capable software that negates the need for anything else, Pook have you got the MSFFB2 software running?

That is a snap to program, and fix if it doesn't work post service pack 2 on XP (I use it ).

my FFb software does not work with SP2....I didnt realize there was a fix for it.

This will re-enable the button mapping feature (recorder) of the V4.x software.

WHO was telling me they desensitized the Trim wheel on the X25 using this?

So, could I set this up to use in Word as well?

Yep.. you could assign

F - to UP

U - to RIGHT

C - to DOWN

K - to LEFT

TRIGGER to SPACE

and wring the joystick til you have it on screen 100 times.

If you are feeling really adventurous then use an X45 and see if you can get the following to work.
