useful utilities for multiple gamepad users

[Toonces]

I had somewhat of a problem using multiple gamepad devices. I have a SNES to USB converter, an N64/PS to USB converter, both of my Joysticks are 49 ways through GroovyGameGear.com's GP-Wiz49 interfaces. The GP-Wiz's show up as GPWiz49-1 and GPWiz49-2 which is easy to differentiate but the SNES and N64/PS both show up as SmartJoy with no differentiation. Depending on which one got plugged in first is where they appeared in the list. At least until I found a utility by the WingMan Team that allows you to change the JoyID in Windows XP! Now I can specify each adapter and select which one I want used by GameEx in the config utility. The utility along with others that let you really screw things up by erasing calibration stuff is at WingMan Team Gadgets

Just thought I'd pass that on to anyone struggling with multiple joypads that use the same ID.

Awesome. That's exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't sure how I was going to get the multiple gamepads to work properly. Thanks Toonces!
