How to Calibrate Your Joystick

ToonTalk can use joysticks and game pads.

Windows provides a way to add joysticks and fix ones that seem not to be working right. Here's what you do:

  1. Double click on the "My Computer" icon.

  2. Double click on the "Control Panel" icon.

  3. Double click on the "Game Controllers" icon.

  4. If the list of controllers is missing the joystick or game controller that is connected to your computer then click on "Add..." and select the type of game controller you have.

  5. If the controller is connected OK, then click on "Properties..."

  6. Select the "Test" page and follow the directions to test your controller.

  7. If it appears you need to calibrate the controller, then click on "Calibrate..." on the "Settings" page and follow the directions given.

  8. Start up ToonTalk again and your game controller should be working fine.

If you still have problems getting your joystick to work check that you have at least version 7 of DirectX from Microsoft.
