paWorld of Joysticks Keyboard & Mouse Emulator Standard Edition 1.59 - User Guide The Thrustmaster Dual Trigger 3-in-1 gamepad was taken as example in this manual. All the controls of gamepad and application are numbered and this numbering will be used in the following description. Top View Front View User Interface of WoJ Emulator application 1. Connecting to Joystick . a) Connect one or more joysticks to PC before starting WoJ Emulator. b) It is recommended to install the drivers of your joysticks from the CDs of web-sites of manufacturers. For many joysticks Windows installs its own standard driver by default, but you have to take in account that device name in the standard driver and driver from manufacturer can be different, therefore WoJ Emulator probably won’t be able to apply configuration created with a different driver. However you always will be able to create separate configurations for different drivers. c) Start WoJ Emulator. Choose an interface by [C25] selector. DirectInput – it is universal interface for any gaming controllers but it does not support vibration for Xbox 360 devices. XInput – it is special interface from Microsoft for Xbox 360 devices, in this mode they support vibration and their triggers control independent axes. If you are going to use a Xbox 360 controller – choose XInput, for all other cases choose DirectInput. Different interfaces cannot be mixed in the common configuration. For playing with different devices simultaneously always choose DirectInput. XInput mode supports up to 4 Xbox 360 controllers simultaneously. After choosing interface application will find all the relevant devices and will display them in the [C3] label and [C20] selector. But if application was started before connecting the joysticks – press the [C1] button to refresh connection. 2. Investigate the functionality of your Joysticks.

If macro was not marked as repeated, it will be executed only once, not depending when button was released. Macros are always executed continuously with other buttons, so until the finishing the macro emulator won’t execute the actions were assigned to other buttons of joystick, keyboard or mouse, it is needed for consistent processing of buttons by emulator. Mouse axes movements were assigned from the panel “Axes Mapping” can be executed in parallel with macros, because they are executed from another thread of emulator. Saving the macros in the separate file allows you to use them from any configurations, so each macro you create only once. 30. Toggle Switches Enable checkbox [C37] for activation of Toggle Switches.
