Stach Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 i refuse to play any sports games with the keyboard, and both my controllers get detected in any other ea sports game so why not this one. i have a steering wheel which is USB(obvioulsy i wont be using that controller) and i have a usb adapter with my ps2 controller plugs into, it shows up as a 16 button 4 axis controller in the control panel, both these controllers show up in every other game i have played, whether i needed them to show up or not. now in mvp all i get is stupid keyboard 1 and 2. what gives???

five Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 i have a usb adapter with my ps2 controller plugs into, it shows up as a 16 button 4 axis controller in the control panel What kind of ps2 adaptor is it, for instance I use the Soyo KiKy X-Series Game Pad Converter, another popular one is the Radio Shack Adaptor. FYI, EA only officially supports a few controllers for this game. It takes a few registry tweaks and controller.cfg tweaks to get everything working correctly, but it's not all that hard.

snepp Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 You'll need to edit your registry, and your controller.cfg file. These links provide plenty of information. http://boards.ea.com/messages?14@252.4gduadOCQME.1@.1defd87d http://x4.invisionfree.com/MVPmods/index.php?showtopic=637 http://www.mvpmods.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=618#618 http://forums.operationsports.com/ubbthrea...;o=&fpart=1 http://forums.operationsports.com/ubbthrea...;o=&fpart=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
five Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 16 button 4 axis controller I know the joybox adaptor is 16 button 4 axis, if this is what you have check out this link. It is dealing with the joybox specifically. In a nutshell, to get the joybox working: 1) Click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type regedit 2)1. Make your way to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMControlSet001ControlMediaPropertiesPrivateProp erties JoystickOEM 2. You'll see a bunch of entries like VID_045E&PID_000XXXX and when you click on it, it should have the name of a controller in the right pane 3. For me, it was the last entry. Keep going down the list until the controller that has the same name in your Controller is shown on the right window. 4. Delete the description for that window on the right window and rename it to Dual USB Feedback Joypad. Make sure you rename it: Dual USB Feedback Joypad, if you want to use his controller.cfg file. 3) Download his controller.cfg file and save it in: "%userprofile%My DocumentsMVP Baseball 2004" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
