Joychoose (Mala plugin)
« on: April 15, 2012, 04:41:39 am »
Anyone using this that wouldn't mind telling me how to set it up please?

I've got it in the Mala plugin folder and when I go into the Mala>plugins>joychoose>setup.  It has two blank fields "C:\" in both.

I'm a little confused about what I'm meant to be directing them to?

I'm using U360's with circular restrictors on if that makes any difference...

Joychoose executes a script of your choosing on game start based on the controller.ini file.  It sounds like joychoose isn't for your current setup as you don't have servos or other hardware dedicated to facilitate automatically switching between 8way and 4way physical restrictors. There are other programs that will help with simulated restriction your type of controller.

Thanks, I was aware of that Ultimarc program but I find it very confusing to figure out - is there any way of getting it to read a controls.ini to auto change depending on the game?

I did wonder if Joychoose was for me, I kept reading about servo's - that would be why then.

At the moment I have both the U360's set to analog mode.

EDIT - forget that, just seen the Ultrastick Mapper plugin on the Mala website, will give that a shot!
