bludgard Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Hi, All. Wife has been gamin on PC since retirement. Pretty good at it, too. :) Anyway we have playstation 2 controllers that we have adapted to USB and they work out-of-box (basically). Would like to remap the buttons to keyboard strokes to enable a better experience (as some actions do not function; not enough buttons on controller). Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this type of tom-foolery and if so: What's the best software that would be recommend? Thanks Of course using windows 7 x64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bludgard Posted October 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2016 Thanks. Looks as though (by your avatar) things are normal here. Jyst having problems getting programs to actually remap (and more importantly; keep/save) keyboard keys to controller. Drivin' me a bit batty, it is.

IMTNT Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 gaming is for kids, how was the hurricane? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bludgard Posted October 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Hurricane was breezy and mild here. A bit harry at times but I mostly slept through it all. Or the kid at heart (some are retired and cannot and/or willnot participate in what others are about). Mostly cannot here but there is a handicap involved. Anyway... xmapper and JoyToKey seem to be able to remap controller buttons but do not "keep" when assigning keystrokes (all the good actions ). Still on it and will update anon. Thanks for the concern of Mathew: It was all a big sensational scare-tactic to get people to spend money (just my opinion). Oh... and blasting 8 combatants with a multi-lock-on RPG firing homing-burst rockets without worry of retaliation is great!~ LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peirdjfebt Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Does the hardware came with official software for mapping keys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bludgard Posted June 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Sorry been a while since visiting: No; the PS2 Pad is plug-and-play. Windows has some cofig options but had to look for other software to try and iron out the crinkles. Basically gave it up as KB/Mouse is what I use for full control and recommend her do the same. :) Thanks for posting, peird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
