Two Joystick Configuration.
Heres what I would like to do I dont think its possible now
Joystick 1 is a ms Sidewinder 2 force feedback stick
I have my throlle roll directional x and y setup
I also have a steering wheel what I would like to do is set up the gas and break pedles to be utilized as straif or even fire wepons whatever. I guese it might be a dual question is there anyway to bind to a second controler?

Yeah, I was thinking about this the other day too. I don't have any joysticks, but it seems to me a dual setup would be really useful for this game. One to control ship orientation and the other to control thrust vectors. Seems like it could make fancy flying a whole lot easier.

vendetta does support multiple joysticks, I have had 1 set up to control facing and one set up to control strafe.

I'm not sure about the sterring wheel pedals, but i think those would work as long as they register as a game controller.

to set it up, just have them both installed on the computer, you can cycle through joysticks under options/controls/joysticks and set up information for each stick.

Heh, i played with this last night, my steering wheel doesn't work the way i had hoped because the pedals on it count as a joystick axis instead of buttons. they work the same way as pushing my regular joystick forward/backwards does. :(

All the buttons on the wheel and everything worked well, but you cant bind a joystick axis to a specific command. (like activate) :P
