Joystick bindings not registering

@Radian333Same problem.

I did all this and no luck. It is weird. joystick gremlin's virtual joystick isn't being seen by Battlefield 2042 on Origin. Nor are VKB EVO and Omni.

I was able to get it working with my old SWFFB2 before, first by x360ce then later as normal when they did a patch some months ago so that joysticks could be seen.

I tested it with twin thrustmaster joysticks too, but they could only see one device, so I'm using hidhide to hide the two sticks behind a single joystick gremlin/vjoy virtual joystick visible. Hid the controller too. It's registering inputs via input viewer - but virtual joystick isn't mapping to anything in joystick bindings in BF2042.

The right stick button presses are triggering a brief recognition that a 'controller' is being used in game though, but still not mapping. Which it shouldn't since there's no emulation going on...

I have tried hiding the virtual joystick and revealed the vkb sticks. Now both sticks are triggering brief recognition a controller is being used in game, but still not mapping.

I tried deleting profile and settings too. No luck.

Edit: The game is interpreting the vjoy as an xbox controller and NOT as a joystick device. Therefore it limits it to the number of axis and buttons on an xbox controller, and all the extra functions that you'd like to bind to your joystick, you just can't. You have to use the first four axis you bind to your vjoy in the game, but you can rebind it as a controller specifically. This is terrible.
