Is there anyway to enable VDMSound to emulate a USB gamepad with 8 buttons? I have heard some mention of joy2.map which the program looks for when you click input mapping. Is there a way I could change these files to make my 8 button controller work? If so, where can I get this file? Sorry to be a pain 😀

Thank you for your time,
Ryan

If you are using VB, I found a program that uses the installed joystick. It uses calls to Winmm.dll. From what I can tell, it reads the number of buttons as defined my windows.....
I can post the full .zip as I found it, or I strip it down to just the joystick code.....

( Just a late thought..... You want to tell a game to use 6 buttons and not a programing problem.....)
You can try editing the profile for your stick.... if the game uses windows stick info......
