Can freejoy recognise USB keypads? I've connected one and it can be recognised in a joystick testing program I have, but the BlitzMax example doesn't find any Joysticks. Any ideas?

Thats odd... hmm, Wouldnt max use windows system for joysticks hence USB wouldnt make a difference? Falken, does Windows Joystick thingy in Control Panel report it?

From what mentioned on mac / linux its support is quite restricted as they don't handle it the same way as windows ( which doesn't make a distinction between any kind of game device )

Knackers. Sometimes I wonder if my move from PC to Mac was a wise one!!
