Mechwarrior 4 with controller having a lot of buttons
Hello,
I just bought the Xbox Controller for Steel Batallion from an ebay auction.
An open Source driver makes the controller available as a "Standard" HID
Controller with a lot of axises, 32 buttons and several modifiers.
Now I read in the Knowledge Base, that MW4 has a problem with controllers
having too much buttons.
Is there a way to patch MW4 so it doesn't crash?
I already tried a program called PPJoy, that is supposed to create a virtual
Joystick, so I can map the axises to thi virtual stick, which in turn should
only present 4 Buttons to MW4.
Although the Virtual Stick shows up in the Control panel, the game only lets
me choose the Steel Batallion Stick and other Controllers I have attached at
that time.
How does the 32 Button Limit work in MW4? Can I keep a Joystick with 32
Buttons attached and use another stick, or will MW4 always crash as long as
a controller with lots of buttons is connected?
