Joystick Emulators


Name Download Version Last Updated OS Description
Direct Pad Pro Download 5.0 4/20/99 Win95\98 Direct Pad Pr is like Sneskey 9x, but it uses DirectX drivers. What this program does different, is it lets you install your console controller like a regualar PC controller... Pretty cool... it also runs faster than Sneskey 9x. This program has support for PSX Dual Shock!!!
JoyEmu Download 4.1 12/2/97 DOS This is the ultimate keyboard emulator around. This tiny TSR supports 1 or 2 joysticks, 2,4,6 and 8 button joysticks, mouse support, autofire for all buttons, hold mode and shift mode settings, configuration file, and much more! There are 2 versions, one of which does not have hotkey support and uses 1KB less memory. If you want to use a joystick with a game that doesn't support joysticks, look no furthur. This is the emulator to use.
JoyKeys Download 1.21 2/4/96 DOS This keyboard emulator is similar to JoyEmu, except it has a few limitations. For example, there is no configuration file so everything must be typed in at the command line, and it also isn't compatible with every game that it's been tested on. It does, however, use less memory when loaded (only about 2KB).

This is a console gamepad emulator. It allows you to connect almost all console gamepads to your PC, and run them as acual PC gamepads. It works on EVERY game for you can edit the keys it uses. The windows version can't use as many controllers as the Dos Version can... but it doesn't take 10 MHz power to run it either. You have to make your own cable to run from your LPT port to your controller, and the instructions to make them are in the DOS Version's help manual. You can also define wich buttons do what, pretty cool.
