Could you profile your joypad please...

Using what I think, is a bog standard joypad (A no-frills sidewinder), could you map your joypad against it:-



Here's a snippet to get the button presses:-

Import Pub.FreeJoy

Strict

If Not JoyCount() RuntimeError "No joystick found!"

Graphics 640,480

Const NO_JOYPAD_INPUT = -1

Local result:Int 


Repeat
Cls

result = GetJoyButton()

If result = NO_JOYPAD_INPUT
	DrawText "Button number:None",0,0
Else
	DrawText "Button number:"+result,0,0
End If

DrawText "D-Pad:-",0,25

DrawText "Hat:"+JoyHat(),0,50
DrawText "JoyX/JoyY:"+Int(JoyX())+"/"+Int(JoyY()),0,75

Flip 
Until KeyDown(KEY_ESCAPE)

Function GetJoyButton:Int(port=0)
Local loopJoyPress:Int
For loopJoyPress = 0 To 31
	If JoyDown(loopJoyPress) Then Return(loopJoyPress) 
Next
Return(NO_JOYPAD_INPUT)
End Function

I need this information, as I've noticed using both my joypads (sidewinder and saitek) that the button ID varies wildly, when they are set out in roughly the same layout.

So, I want to build up a profile of the most common joypad controls, no sticks. Please could you state your full joypad name in 'Control Panel/Game Controllers' thingy! ;)

Also, some D-Pads, work using JoyX/JoyY, my Saitek's D-Pad works on JoyHat... please state which gets a response when testing the D-Pad.

Here's my two to start:-



Buttons:-

X 3
Y 4
Z 5
A 0
B 1
C 2
M 9
Start 8
L 6
R 7
D-Pad JoyX/JoyR



X 0
Y 3
Z 9
A 1
B 2
C 8
M 10
Start 11
L 6
R 7
D-Pad Hat

Thank you! :D

P.S. If there's anything I've missed, such as drivers knacking the basic controls up (Some pads convert the D-Pad to A/S/D/W keys, then just say)
