I installed JoyToKey, and it worked beautifully. Thanks a lot!

Is there any interest in this game? For those who don't know, Super SWIV is a vertical-scrolling shooting game. By normal standards, it's also pretty damn hard. Usually, those kinds of games perhaps don't lend themselves very well to TAS'ing, but SWIV got some perhaps nifty stuff that could spice up a TAS. - You can shoot in all 8 directions with the jeep, making for more varied ways of killing stuff (unlike Gradius and the like were you can usually just shoot straight) - The hitbox detection is downright horrible. You could probably have a lot of fun dodging stuff due to the cruddy hitboxes. - There's enough weapons to add some variety to the mix. I'll stop before I start sounding like a commercial. Anyway, I made a small WIP of a small part of the first level. Think it got any potential? http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/712462807/Super%20SWIV.smv

I didn't see an answer to this in neither topics or help files, so I'll ask here (if this is answered somewhere else, please point me there): I'm currently playing some games with my PS2 gamepad through an USB adapter, and while 1.43v10 (I like it more then 1.51 for some reason) does have some small bugs with button inputs (configuring the inputs seemed very buggy, but nitsuja already answered that in another post), it seems to have a big bug about using frame advance with it. Currently, I can't pause or use frame advance by controller inputs, regardless of what button I set in the configuration. Actually, I can't set the gamepad to do have any hotkeys at all. Is this a bug, some weird kind of feature or an error with my USB adapter?
