It takes a long time to configure, but once you do just right, it's like heaven:)
' Wrote:Hello all,
I've been a long time freelancer fan, and absolutely love what the modding community has done with discovery. I wouldn't consider myself a good player .... at all, i just enjoy roaming around and exploring new areas (which usually just leads to me getting shot to pieces by the sectors controlling factions).
I've always desired to use something other then the keyboard when playing this game. I can't tell you how many times i've wanted to fire a torpedo, but instead have found myself charging up cruise thrust. Or instead of hitting F to bring my shields back, i'd hit V accidentally and see who it was that was causing all that ruckus.
After spending a whole lot of time on planning and construction, i have finally finished my custom control panel for freelancer. After a little bit of trouble shooting this morning, she is now working perfectly.
Here's 2 pictures of it, hope the URL's work.
While this control panel is plugged in, i can still use the regular keyboard to type messages or for inputs that i don't have bound to this panel. And i still have the mouse plugged in for all the normal functions that it is needed for. The controller is set up to be used by the left hand.
