ET:QW + Joysticks

[Rev Hellfire]

Here's a handy tip if you're like me and prefer flyting with the use of a joystick. It spossible to configure the game to use one.

To do so you need to use the console or a config file, the first step is to find the id of you joystick. To do this you type listcontrollers at the console. This returns a list of attached controllers with a 6 digit id.
for example
>listcontrollers
Fyffes banana 376254

To enable the joystick you use the following command (replacing the id)
in_joy1_device 376254

You can then wire the buttons up like so:
bind joy1_1 "_attack" "" "default"
bind joy2_1 "_altattack" "" "default"
bind joy3_1 "weapon0" "" "default"

You can then wire up the axis as follows to enable climb/dive and roll.
in_heli_forward_axis 0
in_heli_side_axis 1

// I set the remainder to 6 an axis I don't have you could try blank
in_heli_yaw_axis 6
in_heli_trottle_axis 6

.. and you get the console up how? I've attempted it the old way but it didn't work, or am i doing something silly?
