D1\D2 problems

I got D1 to work, but not my joystick.
And D2 says, with D2x, "could not find required file <descent2.hog>"
help!

Please give me a few years to consult my crystal ball so I can magically pull the answer out of my ass for your problem that you provided an abundance of information on.

(hint: We aren't psychic so we need more information than "it won't work! HEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!")

ok, I just got D2 to work, but the window is about 2 square inches.
I have d2x-sdl
the other one d2x-gl has no textures.

D2X-GL's texture problem was fixed in the CVS, but no binary was available for it. So I grabbed the CVS and compiled an EXE from it. Works pretty well, except the sounds are a little delayed. There's no MIDI music, and the redbook doesn't turn off when it normally would in the old executable (it remains on during the exit sequences and even if you manually turn it off in D2).

Grab it here (323KB )

BTW, this code violates the standard convention of treating warnings like errors, or maybe it's just me. I got a couple thousand warnings when compiling this stuff.
