Joystick / Gamepad ID ?

Post by haf-blade »

Hi guys,

I am using EventGhost now for over one year and I'm rellay happy with it but now I found the first thing I couldn't realise.

I wanted to install "You don't know Jack" on my HTPC. It's a quiz show like game but it only supports the keyboard.
Now I've got 3 gamepads on which I want to map the buzzer-buttons and the numbers for giving an answer in the game.
So I tried it but I found out that eventghost only recognizes that a button on any gamepad has been pressed but not on which gamepad.
Is there a possibility to get different events for different gamepads?

For example instead of joystick.button1 ... the events joystick.id1.button1 or something like this....

I know I could perhaps use another gamepad tool but I love eventghost and I wanted to map everything with this.

Thanks for your help,
a great eventghost fan. :)
