CloseWhen using a gamepad in RM2k3 you don't have to configure anything and the buttons are premapped. The first four buttons are the main three(accept,cancel,shift). However on my gamepad i have 4 shoulder buttons and 2 of them have SHIFT mapped to them. Is there a way to change this? Maybe disable the joystick support all together? I want to be able to use Joy2Key and map the number keys to all buttons but with the way it is now I only have 4 out of the 10 buttons on my gamepad to work with.

Yes, but it's a pain in the @$$. You actually hve to open the RPG2k3 file up on notepad and change the setting in the middle (Directly in the middle.) of the code. You'll see it. It'ss say P_Cntrl, or something like that. Just change the Dirtections under _Direct_
I use Pinnacle Game Profiler with my 360 controller. http://pinnaclegameprofiler.com/
You can map keyboard/mouse controls to any controller, and customize it how you want to. It's not free unfortunately, but it has a 30-day trial. I'd give it a go.

Joy2Key (or is the Windows one JoyToKey? I can never remember) is a free opensource controller-to-keyboard mapper.
You can use it to map your controller controls to keyboard keys and then play with your controller as if you are using the keyboard. I find that it lags a little, but that's not that big of deal with RPGs usually.

Well, I stated that I'm using joy2key in the OP. The problem is that even if I map the number 2 key to one of the shoulder buttons, it presses "shift" because RM2k3 has mapped "shift" to that shoulder button.
Maybe a 360 or even PS3 controller would not have this problem, but I don't have either of those :/

I can't remember what I did, but I think there was a way to disable joystick input using Joy2key.... I can't remember anymore, sorry.
Trying to figure out the same thing..
Playing Hero's Realm he has the shift key i guess bound to search a tile.
Thats cool, but i use my shoulder buttons for other purposes via joytokey. Also tried autohotkey..
But somehow rm2k3 ignores both of those and manages to detect raw input regardless - most programs including windows itself can't manage this - they only detect the new key you set up.
So some way to fully disable rm2k3 controller support to avoid this issue would be very useful.
