Problem with Gamepad setup

[Blackthorne]

Hello Folks,

I’ve played EoC for quite a while before, using Joystick and Keyboard, and got along fine.
Now, however, I got a new computer, which doesn’t have a Gameport anymore so I can’t use my old joystick. I wanted to start the game over, anyway.
So I got me a Logitech Rumblepad II, but now I have trouble setting it up.

Basically what I want to do is the following:
“cross” for HUD control — no problem, works fine
Left Joystick for Pitch and Yaw, also works (but a bit slow)
Right Joystick for lateral and vertical thrusters — nothing doing.

I’ve tried assigning the bindings to “Joystick2” – nothing happens.
I’ve tried “Joystick1 JoyRXaxis” – nope.
And I’ve tried using the Logitech software to assign “A” and “D” to the right joystick’s X Axis. Works in the Logitech setup program, but not in the game.

Currently the game uses the right joystick’s X axis as throttle. The weird thing here is that I don’t have any joystick bindings for throttle in the default.ini!

Please help me. Are there any recommended setups for the Rumblepad II? How do I assign the lateral thrusters to the right Joystick’s X axis?
I absolutely cannot play without lateral thrusters. They kill me dead.

Thanks for your help.
