D2X-W32: Newly introduced joystick bug fixed

Post by Diedel »

There is a new version of d2x-w32 available, fixing problems with joystick usage introduced when fixing the speed bug. That version allows to set a dead zone for the joystick with the command line argument "-joydeadzone XX" where XX is the percentage of the maximum value range of the joystick data. E.g. "-joystick 20" means 20% dead zone. Default is 10%. Any value from 0 to 100 is possible (100 doesn't make much sense though, unless you prefer to play in "sitting duck" mode :D). Use the command line or d2x.ini for the parameter.

Have fun. ;)

I'm off for skiing now for four days. Keep on posting suggestions and stuff, but don't wonder when I don't reply right away.
