Bought 2 USB joysticks a couple of weeks ago. The 25 years anniversary ones.. in gold.. cant remember the name just now.. anyway.

Used AmigaInput to calibrate them, but somehow they point down to the right .. so every game i try, its as if i am holding the joystick down to
the right.. anyone else have this problem ?

Works fine connected to the Subway USB port on the A1200T in your signature while running OS4.1, or works fine while connected to your X1000, while running OS4.1.5?

Make sure that you READ the calibration instructions! It does not work like on Windows. e.g. You have to push to the top-left (I think), then press fire (while still holding it at top-left), then bottom-right (I think), then press fire (while still holding it etc), then leave it centered, then press fire, THEN save it.

Also try following RunInUAE's instructions, which are currently here (may change) :
What are E-UAE's joystick controls?

EDIT: Added "while still holding it at top-left" etc for clarity.

I can try again !! i maybe i didnt press the button every time.

Still no luck on the joysticks. Weird ! :-/

Can you test the joystick on a PC or Mac? just wondering if the joystick is broken?

EDIT: Ah, didn't see you have *two* joysticks. That does rather reduce the likelyhood they are both broken, but might as well still test them to be sure.

yeah, i could probably test them. Both same problem with both of them. Seems strange
