D-Fend Reloaded default config for DOSBox... WHERE IS IT?

Over a year ago I posted of a problem with D-Fend not allowing my games to see my controller ((Another) Joystick-stopped-working thread). Been playing GZDoom since then, but now I'm getting back into some of my older games that need DOSBox/D-Fend to work. I see that the controller issue has not been properly resolved.

It has now become obvious to me that D-Fend is causing the issue by over-ruling my enabling of my controller via the profiles. There is a default setting somewhere in D-Fend that is disabling the controller. How do I access this in Reloaded 1.4.4 so I can force D-Fend to always use my controller?

*** I FOUND THE PROBLEM!!!!! ***

It was the keyboard mapper file being used. Apparently, you need to set your joystick up properly in it to get it to work. That or disable the mapper by entering a null string (""") in the custom DOSBox key mapping file. I've even managed to set it as the default.

Hopefully now the rest of my games will follow suit and not use the mapper.
