Controller Swapping Question

by BRH » Sat, 24 Mar 2001 07:37:08

I have both a TSW and an LWFF.  In most sims, I use the LWFF along with
the TSW pedals.  However, there are sims where, in order to get FF
effects, the LWFF has to be on ID 2 (mainly Papy sims), and others where
it has to be on ID1 (mainly GP3).  This applies when having 2
controllers active in Control Panel.

I presently make the ID swap in Control Panel, but it's an annoyance.
Is there an easier way to swap assigned controller ID's?  Maybe some
little software miracle?  If not, is there a controller setting whereby
both the papy sims and GP3 can run with the same "mixed controller"
setup, and still have FF active?

Thanks.

Bert,

Try CH's Quick Joy. It should work for most types of joysticks.
