Gp32 As A Usb Gamepad

I found this site

http://users.skynet.be/firefly/gp32/project/gpusbjoy/

It has a program to use the gp32 as a gamepad via the usb port. However I hove no idea how to use it. Do you need some sort of driver for the game to work?

I tried using the program and in control panel under that game controllers thingie it sees the gp32 as a controller and if I go to properties and push buttons on the gp32 it recongnises them being pushed. However for some reason I can't seem to get it working in a game. Do I need some sort of drivers for it?

No!, No driver is needed if you have windows 2k/XP.

Put the programs .fxe in the GPMM folder on you SMC card, Connect the GP`s usb cable between the GP and your computer and run the programs .fxe on your GP32.

Windows will pop up the add new hardware wizard and recognize the GP as a usb joypad, Which can be used i pretty much any software that supports joysticks.

NB: It still uses battery power from your GP, So is probably only best used in emergency situations, like when you have absolutely no access to any kind of joypad.

Cool, thanks, I have windows 2000 and everything worked (under control panel). I guess it just doesn't work with some games.

I use this a lot when I emulate gba on my pc

what about a driver for windows 98?

I always wondered why this tool exists - but I can see it is a good controller for a GBA emulator

should also work for windows98, and any other system that haves HID support
