Hi,

I'm trying to get a standard USB gamepad working on Jazz 2 for Mac. The joystick works with other games and does not need drivers or anything.

Any advice? Thanks!

Did you update to the latest version? I don't think so, because 1.2.5 seems to have had some problems with non-standard input devices.

1.2.8 Also supports MaxOS X! :)

Thats a good question. I should have said I only had the demo. I-emailed Logicware and asked if they still sold it. I'm really curious. the demo works great on my mac, minus the gamepad support. :)

If anyone still sells the game it would be www.ifd.com. However, I think they sold all of their copies of jj2. But, they are very friendly there and it never hurts to ask.

Actually now we're talking about it. I emailed them last night. And they're selling the game for about 15 dollars a piece. However, it is a download-version. So you won't get a CD. :-(

Burger from Contrabandent is also able to sell you versions of JJ2 for Mac, perhaps even with the cd and box ;) If your interested. (He is the one who ported it from PC to Mac)

OK, I have the full version now. The joystick works in Classic mode but not in X(Cabron?) mode. Classic mode's frame rate is crap. :p

Any ideas on how to get the X version to see the gamepad? I downloaded the lastest update with the link you gave me but I notice it still says "1.22" at the main menu. Is that normal?

Thanks again,
