About MJoy Mapper

MJoy Mapper helps to overcome the maximum 32 buttons per joystick problem that many contemporary games still have. This limitation is implied by older versions of Direct X which had a limit of 32 buttons in it's DirectInput interface definitions. This limitation impacts the use of powerfull joystick device MJoy16-C1 which has a support 112 buttons. Using MJoy Mapper you may map upper joystick buttons to assigned keyboard keys. Then by pressing a joystick button you would activate a key press of virtual keyboard.
Below is a shortlist of MJoy Mapper usage points and fucntionality:

MJoy Mapper allows you to create mapping configuration profiles, store them and load them when needed.

On first launch blank configuration is created and key mapings can be assigned by doubleclicking on appropriate buttons rows. Once assignement configuration created it should be saved to be able to use it later.

On next launch MJoy Mapper automaticaly loads last used configuration.

You may assign a target window to send the key presses to by specifying window class. For example MSFS2004(tm) has window class "FS98MAIN". This enables to send key presses to right destination regardless which window is currently active.

Pressing a refresh joysticks list enables you to discover and activate the newly connected joysticks.
