Ok so I've read some threads about how hard it is to use a joystick to play STO. Despite this I decided to try to use one I already had laying around. It's a Logitech Extreme3D Pro. My OS is Win7x64.
I managed to get the ship controls fine. Of course the throttle button is broke, but hey that's not a problem.
The problem is: The options for what your joystick buttons can do are useless. Examples:
Next Button, Previous button, right shoulder, left shoulder, left stick, right stick, dpad up, down, left, right, accept, cancel etc al.
I don't want my buttons to do any of that stuff. I just want it to control up,down,left,right and be mappable to my keybinds.
So i can have a button to throttle up, throttle down, use skill 1-10, or ctl 1-10 that stuff. oh and redirect shields also.
But NONE of my joystick buttons register under keybinds.
I'm not ranting....I'm asking for devs there in Cryptic to talk about how easy or difficult it would be to map joystick buttons to the keybinds. Any devs mind posting some feedback?
