JoyToKey English Version
About this software
This software is a keyboard input emulator for
joysticks.
It converts joystick input into keyboard input (and mouse
input).
Use it when you want to control an application with joysticks
that doesn't support joysticks. If you wish, you can control even Word, Excel,
etc. with joysticks!
Features
- Configuration for maximum 16 joysticks.
(6 axes, 2 POV switches and 32
buttons for each joystick)
- Multiple configuration files
You can make many configuration files and
choose it at any time.
- Support for many useful features...
- Automatic shooting of buttons
- Mouse emulation (including wheel input)
- "Adjust mouse movements" function
When it's pressed, mouse
movement(or wheel rotation) becomes faster (or slower).
- "Switch to the other configuration file" function
You can switch to and
activate the other configuration file with the button which is assigned to
this function.
- "Use the setting of other joystick number temporarily"
function
(Something like "shift" command of SNESKey. For example, you may
usually use joystick1 for keyboard emulation, but during this button being
pressed, joystick3's configuration (that emulates mouse or something) will
temporarily be used. Note that joystick3 is not a real joystick, it's a
virtual device to .)

Screenshots showing simple configuration example
In
this example, "Joystick 1" controlls some MS-DOS game.
When "Button 5" is
pressed, "Joystick 3"'s configuration (that seems to emulate function keys and
automatic shooting of cursor keys) will temporarily be used.
When "Button 6" is
pressed, "Joystick 4"'s configuration will temporarily be used, so it can
emulate mouse movements, wheel rotation etc.
