Hi everyone, i was just wondering, is it possible to use a joystick in flash to make an object move around the screen? Are there any event handlers for joystick buttons? Also, I have a program named Joy2Key and have made the profile and everything, but i dont know how to integrate that with flash.  
Thanks.

I’d love to know too. I can set up my rumbler to commit certain keys when it is used… and I can set those keys in Flash so I’m assuming that I can do it with mine.

Flash MX does have camera and microphone objects now… why not a joystick??

I’m clueless… but I’d love to know if there’s a way to set that up.

Well Macromedia does supply something like that with Flash MX, in your Flash MX folder on your comp, under Samples, in FLAs.

I think it is called movement-joystick, not sure.
