Sprool Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 Is it possible to set up both real joystick and other virtual identical joysticks via vJoy to control different things off the same real joystick axes? I'm trying to get one rotary axis on the joystick (JOY_RY or JOY_RX) to control 3 or 4 different light panels at same time but it wont allow sharing of axes to more than 1 function. If I got a second & a third identical vjoy running where I could map different functions to the same axis, say console light to real JOY_RY and floodlight to virtual JOY_RY and instrument light to next virtual JOY_RY then would the real axis control both things?
Ant0ine Posted May 11, 2020 Posted May 11, 2020 With Vjoy and a program to set it up such as UCR or Joystick Gremlin you can indeed use a physical axis to control several virtual axes. To do what you want you only need a single Vjoy, then you map your physical axis to several different Vjoy axes. Up to 8. If you need more than 8 then yes you would have to create more Vjoy. I advise you Joystick Gremlin, and I can assist if needed. https://whitemagic.github.io/JoystickGremlin/overview/
Sprool Posted May 11, 2020 Author Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) That sounds just what I'm after. I've been using vjoy and FreePie to use a load of knobs and sliders on a midi controller (korg nano) but if I can get all the controls needed onto my X52 axes that would be really cool. Edit: great advice, works exactly as I needed, thanks for the heads-up. A bit scary looking through the website at first but when you download it and play with it, its really straightforward. Perfect for my needs - thanks! Edited May 11, 2020 by Sprool
