Today I wanted to play my favorite game with my pad. So I brought the mapper, mapped my hat left/right to left/right keys, and up/down to up/down keys. Inside the mapper, my hat left/right/up/down moves are recognized and assigned properly.
Problem is inside the game, using my hat up/right/left/down has no effect. Seems like mapper & in-game events works differently.
Please note that using the analog controls works both inside the mapper, and inside the game. Left/right/up/down keyboard keys work as expected inside the game.
I'm using DOSBox 0.74 and WinXP (32bit, SP3). The pad works ok in other windows apps (including the hat controls).
Inside the mapper file, here is what I am having for the left_key for example:
======
....
key_left "stick_0 hat 0 8" "key 276"
...
======
