Hello all. I noticed in release .70 I can play my favorite DOS game Extreme Assault, however my AXIS on the joystick is non-functional, however the buttons work letting me think it detects it. So what can I do to make these axis work? Is it hopeless?

Never mind! I found how to map it and it works. However it only recognizes 2 buttons on the joystick as 3 and 4, but i'll work that out im sure.

Set buttonwrap=false in dosbox.conf, and you will be able to map all joypad buttons.

I found out that in the Single player missions the joystick tends to pull to the left or go forward too much, is there anything specific in DOSBOX that can help the calibration of the joystick?
