Hola amigos, les cuento que luego del problema que
tuve con el Stepmania y el adaptador en el que no se
podian pisar izquierda + derecha tuve que comprar otro
adaptador pero esta vez uno que si estuviera seguro
que funciona, y bueno se trata de un pad de esos con
que traen:
-Puerto para la impresora (25 pins).
-Puerto de quince pins. (no tengo esa entrada, solo
una que es la del monitor).
-Adaptador de corriente.
-Diskette de drivers.

Y bueno aparentemente ya tengo todo lo necesario,
lo primero que hice fue reiniciar la pc y conectar el
adaptador al puerto de la impresora y enchufar el
adaptador.
Luego inserté en diskette y vi 3 carpetas que contenían
lo sgte:
1.-Joy to key (creo que es un emulador de teclado, aunque
no me funcionó).
2.-Win 2000 & XP (instalador y readme)
3.-Win 9x & Me. (instalador y readme).

Y bueno, como se sabe hay que instalar los drivers
según el sistema operativo que tengamos.
Yo tengo Win XP, asi que quise instalar y me salió
el mensaje:
"No se encuentra la clave del puerto del joystick."
eso me olía mal....
Entonces sino se puede instalar eso, no podré jugar
me dije.....
Pero cual sería mi sorpresa que al fijarme en mis
de adaptador de psx ya instalados, si me detectaba
las posiciones, los botones y todo....
Me preguntaba por que....
Pero con todo y eso configuré en tipo "buttons"
y abrí el Stepmania y me dí cuenta que presionaba:
"Arriba + izquierda + derecha + start " al mismo tiempo
cada 3 segundos....
Y como se darán cuenta no pude jugar....
Se que es un problema mas de "drivers" porque luego
reinicié y puse el adaptador que tenía y si detectaba
todas las posiciones normalmente, pero claro....
no se podia pisar izq + derecha....
Yo quisiera saber cual es el problema....
Y por que lleva adaptador de corriente si al no usarlo
(lo intenté solo una vez)tambien detecta el adaptador..
Les pasó los readmes de cada uno por si les ayuda en
algo a resolver mi problema:

Joy to Key:

1. Purposes
-----------
This software is a keyboard emulator for joysticks.
It converts joystick input into keyboard input (and mouse input).

Use it when you want to control an application with joysticks that
doesn't support joystick input. If you wish, you can control even
Word, Excel, etc. with joysticks!


2. Features
-----------
* Configuration for max 16 Joysticks.
(6 Axes and 32 Buttons for each Joystick)

* You can make many configuration files, and choose it in any time.

* Support for automatic shooting.

* Support for Mouse emulation (including wheel support).

* Support for "Adjust mouse movements" button
When it's pressed, mouse movement(or wheel rotation) becomes
faster (or slower).

* Support for "Use setting of the other joystick" button
(Something like "shift" command of SNESKey.
For example, you may use joystick1 for keyboard emulation usually,
but during this button being pressed, joystick3's configuration
(that emulates mouse or something) will temporarily be used.)


3. Installation
---------------
Simply unzip the archive file into some folder.
To uninstall this software, you only need to remove that folder.


4. Usage
--------
* Push "Create" button and make a new configuration

* Choose the button of the joystick from the list
and double click or push return key.

* "Use setting of the other number of joystick temporarily" feature may
be hard to understand at first, but it is very useful for Joystick
which has few buttons.

During the button be pressed, the rest of button's assignment temporarily
be changed to other assignment. So you can virtually use twice or more
number of buttons.

* Configuration file (*.cfg) is simply a text file. So, If you want to
rename the configuration, copy the configuration, ...etc.,
terminate the "JoyToKey" and simply rename or copy the file (*.cfg).


5. Misc
-------
* If you want to control Internet Explorer 4.0 with joysticks,
configure as follows...

"Back" : Alt + Left
"Close Window" : Alt + F + C
"Move To Menu" : Alt + F

And you'll want to add Wheel rotation, Mouse movement etc., too.

Other Windows applications will also be configured like this.

* Known limitations
These won't work.
1. Alt or Ctrl key emulation for MS-DOS application
2. All key emulation for Windows application using DirectInput


6. Changes
----------
Ver3.6
* Automatic shooting support for mouse's button emulation.

Ver3.0-3.5
* Old version


7. Others
---------
