Hello,
I have installed a MS Sidewinder Game Pad Pro. Windows tells me that the device is working properly, however i can not get it to work on the commodore 64 games. In the menu / options i have tried the different possibilty,s.
For example:
Control port 1: Joystick
Mode PC Game port 1
Can anybody help me?

Re: Joystick
Apart from selecting the Joystick as the Input Device to the emulated C64, you also need to Calibrate it within CCS64.
Kind regards,

Re: Joystick
Stuart,
Can you either describe, or make a YouTube video, explaining how to map a gamepad controller using a C64 emulator (like CCS64)? My son and I use Stella, KAT5200, MAME, Cogwheel, and even MESS as a ColecoVision emulator. But CCS64 seems so primitive, even the V3.8 version, and we can't seem to get it to "see" a basic gamepad controller. The game we are trying to play, Pitfall 2, does show up in CCS64, but the controller doesn't work. I've read the CCS64 manual, and I see:
C64 Joystick Port 1
Key
Up Keypad %
Down Keypad 5
Left Keypad 7
Right Keypad 9
Fire button 1 Right Alt (Alt Gr)
And the following I'd like to map to the controller buttons:
Alt+R Reset (Soft).
Alt+Shft+R Reset (Hard).
But I can't figure out how to do it. How do I tell CCS64 about the above mapping? What example keyboard/gamepad keystrokes, on the Input screen, should I use for "Up", for example?
Thanks so much for any help you can provide!
