CONFIGURING INPUT DEVICES
The HID Input Device Configuration dialog is where you configure all joysticks, gamepads,
keyboards, etc. for use with the game:
To configure a device:
1. Select the device to configure from the Devices pop-up menu at the top of the dialog.
2. Select a Command from the Command pop-up menu. This is a list of all of the game’s
actions which you can configure.
3. The Control pop-up menu will display which of the device’s buttons is assigned to the
command you selected. If no command is assigned to that control then it will display “Not
Used”. Select which control you want to assign to the command.
4. You can also just press any key or button on the device and it will automatically get selected
in the Control pop-up menu. For example, if you have the Keyboard device selected and you
press the “A” key, then you will see “A” in the control pop-up menu.
5. Certain controls will require calibration. This is mainly for joystick and thumbstick axes.
To set the calibration, move the axis to one side and click the Set Min button. Then move it to
the other side and press the Set Max Button. With the axis in its neutral position click the Set
Center button.
6. Be sure to check the Device Active checkbox to tell the game to use this device for input.
You may have any number or combination of input devices active at any time, however, you
should disable any devices which you are not planning on using when you play the game.
The game should remember your settings each time you quit and run the game again.
However, if a device gets unplugged then the game may forget the settings you had for it. If
