Joystick Mapper for Mac

Map keys and mouse movements to your gamepads.

$4.99
In English
Version 1.2

Joystick Mapper overview

Joystick Mapper Joystick Mapper is an application that allows you to configure your joysticks or gamepads to simulate keyboard keys/mouse movement/mouse click/mouse scroll, so you can control any app or game using them, even the ones without built-in support.

A very good companion for First Person Shooters, Flash Games, Media Players, for example.

Works great with a variety of gamepads, including (but not limited to) Xbox 360 and Ps3.

Features:

  • Use any axis, dpads or buttons on your joystick to simulate keyboard and mouse
  • Map any of the 4 directions from an Analog Stick independently
  • Smooth mouse movement
  • Adjust mouse speed for analog sticks per direction individually, this can help with crappy gamepads
  • Analog Shoulder Triggers can be used as buttons
  • Any "weird" combination you want:
    Button/Dpad/Analog Stick/Analog Trigger --> Keyboard/Mouse/Click/Scroll
  • Ready-to-use examples, easily modifiable
  • Compatible with USB and Bluetooth Joysticks
  • Easy to use interface.
Notes:
  • To map Key-Combinations like Command+Q, just map two or more keys to the same input (in this example, one for Command and another for Q)
  • Compatible with controllers that does use the standard HID Joystick interface
  • You may need to install a third party driver for PS3 and Xbox controllers, you can find links to them in the Support site FAQ
  • If your PS3 gamepad does not respond to any input when connected using USB, just press the central "PS" button once
  • Wireless Xbox 360 Gamepads, sadly, does not use Bluetooth, you may need an adapter in this case. Search on the web for "Microsoft Wireless Gaming Receiver"
  • Other similar apps may prevent Joystick Mapper from operating correctly, if you have one and have problems, please disable them before using Joystick Mapper
