Comcon programmable joystick interface
This interface allows you to map the joystick directional controls and fire button to any key on the Spectrum keyboard. Spectaculator emulates an enhanced version that allows you to map up to 32 buttons available on modern PC joysticks/gamepads.
To setup Comcon joystick emulation
Ensure the game controller you want to use is installed and configured correctly.
On the Tools menu, click Options.
Click the Joystick tab
Choose the PC game controller (player 1 or 2) you want to use from the list.
Choose Comcon programmable joystick from the list.
To map the directional controls and fire buttons to the Spectrum keyboard
Click Configure Button Mappings for either Player 1 or Player 2.
Click the joystick control in the list whose keyboard mapping you want to change.
Press the key on the keyboard you want to assign to it.
Tip
You can also press the actual button on the game controller (or move the directional control in the required direction) whose keyboard mapping you want to change, rather than clicking it in the list.
