For instance: dual shock, xbox, etc.

I'm hoping that gamepads and joysticks haven't been already coded in but if they haven't wold it be possible to map a stick's axis in the controls menu to a certain action (eg for ds3 walking left/right bound to x axis (left stick left/right))

otherwise will i just have to use JoytoKey and MotioninJoy?

I imagine that if there's game control support already (I haven't checked but would assume so), then it's just a matter of telling the OS how to interpret the device and feed the input to the program. It would be no different to using a USB or Bluetooth Playstation imitation controller.

Sorry, I don't get it...

You can map to action and direction everything you want. You can map buttons and joystick axes...

So for example you can use buttons for walking, or an axis for jumping. Try it out Happy

That works since version 0.3.0.0 afaik.

UPDATE: It seems I cannot map any key or axis of my controller OR my joystick to the game... has the feature actually been implemented yet?

BlueGasMask: Which version of CG are you using? Also check if analog joystick support is enabled/disabled. Try both cases out... and see what happens.

To map you should be able, but of course your joystick must be detected by the operating system.
