JoyToKey

JoyToKey is a useful utility for setting up and emulating gamepads for portable computers. If you are tired of playing computer games with keyboard and mouse, then use this program. The application is able to customize almost any joystick for operating systems. After tuning you will be able to play your favorite games no worse than before. You can purchase the software for free.

General characteristics

The basic principle of JoyToKey is to convert signals from the gamepad to the PC operating system. In fact, when the computer receives incoming signals from the equipment, the emulator makes the joystick perceive as a computer mouse and keyboard. This way there are no conflicts in the system and the operation of the devices.

Features

The main difference of JoyToKey program from its analogues is its extended functionality. Most customizers are limited to emulation of controllers for computer games. But this software has gone beyond the limits and allows you to customize the gamepad for control in games, but also for programs. So you can work in Excel or Word with the joystick. Editing documents, opening office suites and interacting with other software is done with the same signal swapping. The software also allows you to create different profiles. Each profile can be customized and changes can be saved. Thus, you will have several variants of personal settings for different programs and games. Switching between them is fast and without delays.

Disadvantages

The only disadvantage of the application is the lack of interface translated into Russian. This can complicate the process of hardware customization. Nevertheless, experienced PC users and users who are familiar with the game terminology in English, this fact is unlikely to stop.
