It's an old game, control expectations weren't really standardized. I think most people probably played this game on Keyboard controls when it came out.

Right but it doesn't make sense that they would include side to side movement but not forward/backward movement. And then including Joystick look up/down when it's not even necessary? I'm pretty sure duke nukem 3d has both and it came out before right?

"Old game" is not really much of an excuse for a lack of analog forward and back. In the 90's i've seen a few trackball Doom and Wolf3D players

You use joysticks to play Shadow Warrior? Or possibly other FPS games too?

Anyway, it is supposed to be analog_moving. Have you tried with other joysticks?

I suppose you're playing the steam version in your windows pc? Using USB joysticks?

I'm using a dualshock 3 to setup movement. It has worked fine in other games like Duke Nukem, Blood, Doom, Descent, Descent 2, etc.. Actually Descent works really well with 4 axis, although I could use an additional 2. Blood works well (also build engine) and it even allows for full 4 axis mapping. It's Steam version on Windows, although I've tried 2 different svn builds as well as a vanilla build but all show the same problem.

Have you tried downloading the shareware version of Shadow Warrior and tried setting up to see if it works in Dosbox?

Have you tried copying over the [Controls] section from DN3D or Blood and overwrite that section in SW.CFG? I'm not sure this will work, but if the suggestion above works, you can try copying over the SW.CFG from the shareware version after setting it up, into your steam's version folder.

Well I tried Blood and got the same problem; however, I also tried Duke3d and it worked as I expected it to. I exchanged the duke cfg to blood and it worked, but when comparing the two files, their joystick section is identical. I still don't know why the Duke cfg works and not the Blood cfg. I attached the files if anybody wants to look at them...
