[badboybubby]

So,

Assuming a game doesnt support a joystick, what do you guys use to get you CH Products joystick working?

Do you use a joystick to keyboard emulator? Or am i just being a noob?

No need for any other software apart from Control Manager 3. You can assign buttons to the analogue axis so that even if a game such as Ubisoft's 'Far Cry' does'nt support joystick input you could use a script like this:

SCRIPT
CMS.B1 = [JS2.A1 > 220];
CMS.B2 = [JS2.A1 < 30];
CMS.B3 = [JS2.A2 > 220];
CMS.B4 = [JS2.A2 < 30};
ENDSCRIPT

You then define CMS button 1,2,3 and 4 to a keypress so CMS.B1 could be the 's' key for straffe left, CMS.B2 could be the 'd' key for straffe right and then CMS.B3 and B4 could be the keys you use to move forward and back. Not ideal but I think it's short sighted of games like 'Far Cry' not to support joystick input especially when there are player controlled vehicles available.

I think if you do a 1-Step Up/Down on the X/Y axes with a NULL center character, you'll get that same basic effect without having to script anything. It's a little quicker.
