X-wing Alliance Joystick Patch

I recently installed the XWA Upgrade 1.6 and then the day 1 patch 1.0.

X-wing Alliance Joystick Patches


I used to play on the original version 2.02 of the game via Steam with my XBOX 360 Controller. I had installed Joy2Key and made a profile in order to map my controls the way I wanted them. Secondarily, I had downloaded this version of ddraw (https://github.com/rdoeffinger/xwa_ddraw_d3d11/releases) in order to enable keyboard and mouse support in lieu of a joystick in order for my XBOX 360 controller to properly emulate a Keyboard and mouse via Joy2Key. This worked really well.
Since installing the XWAUP the game does not read any type of joystick (shows no joystick buttons in the game controller menu) and as a result, I cannot fly my ship during missions, it just spins out of control.

I tried using the ddraw file I linked above, but it appears to be incompatible with the latest patched version. I receive an invalid parameters error message when trying to launch a mission that requires a ctrl+alt+del and end task. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get my controller to be recognized and working again?

X-wing Alliance Joystick Patch Review

I borrowed x-wing alliance from my cousin but the case did not come with any instructions on the keyborad controls. Games' started by joystick, Oct 2, 2004. X-Wing / Tie-Fighter XP Patch. A DirectInput device as the joystick. I wonder if the patch allows you to play with a mouse. Get a big game of X Wing Alliance.
