1st off just for the record "People, it's possible to use a joystick in Redneck Rampage & Route 66!" Cool huh, if ya didn't know.

Just use the Game Controller Settings in SETUP.EXE or SETUPMAIN.EXE(if ya want to run in windowed mode) in your Rampage Dir (usually = C:\Interplay\Rampage or Redneck Rampage 1 of the 2, changed mine 🤣 ).

Don't!!! I REPEAT, DONT USE the actual joystick OR Thrustmaster/Wingman cuz their mapping is shit!lol I think due to the fact that it's baised on a weird 2-Axis Setup instead of both X and Y and it's inverted (I dont much care for thee ol' inverted axis). But anywhoo Keyboard & Controller Option work!

But Heres The Catch.... 😁 😁

Don't know about anyone else from what I read, but im past the whole glitch in the Audio now! No skips in sound fer me at all... Execept when I Emulate the Joystick! Ha, go figure damn game!lol

If anyones got past this by tweaking the VDMSound Joystick EMU, Please teach me a new trick, cuz im stuck. Heres my specs if needed...

Windows XP
512 MB RAM
Intel Pentium 4 3.00E Ghz
Nvidia GeForce FX 5200
RealTek AC97 Audio
Ken Silvermans NOLFB Vesa Fix
VDMSound 2.1.0 Beta
Logitech Freedom 2.4 & Wingman Cordless Rumblepad

(Both work under controller setting. remember i have tested & Thrustmast\Wingman Setting = Crapy!lol)

hey,made this account and wondered if you ever got like an xbox controller to work on this using xpadder?,ive searched everywhere for someone who has either mapped or played this game on a controller and ,nothing,I had a full working profile on xpadder i worked on for weeks,it took so long just to make it feel modern,ive since then lost that pc and now im on a new on ,im about to work on it and was wondering if anyone of yourself would take a look at it and play with it to appreciate how long it took me to make 🤣 .lmk
