Softonic review


VIRTUAL JOYSTICK DRIVER

vJoy is a device driver bridging the gap between any device that is not a
joystick and an application that requires a joystick. Originally designed as a
replacement to PPJoy, this utility software allows keyboard input to be
translated to joystick input. If you develop a program for Windows that needs
user physical input, this app can help. It is implemented as a joystick virtual
device for Windows, which does not represent actual hardware. However, it comes
with a simple interface, allowing users to modify the app’s provided sample
code.


DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION

As noted, Windows seems vJoy as a standard joystick device. It can be
incorporated into your device as is—meaning you can use the provided sample
code—or you can modify the code to your preference. To make it easier for the
users, the app can be used with fixed configuration. There are three branches
provided that you can use, depending on your needs. The most recommended branch
is the Incompatible (to PPJoy), also known as vJoy 2.x. It is the most advanced
branch that is fully configurable and secure. It also supports up to 16 virtual
devices. 



If you need a more simple replacement for PPJoy, then the Compatible/Fixed
branch is best for you. It is stable and offers one device with eight fixed axes
and 32 buttons. However, it is not configurable and its axes cannot be
re-mapped. There is also the Compatible/Configurable branch which allows you to
set the number of buttons and select the needed axes. Note, however, that you
cannot re-map the axes in this branch unless you are willing to make small
changes in your code. 

The installation of the app is straightforward. However, it might take a while,
and can sometimes fail. Once done, you can launch the app directly or launch it
from the Start menu. It also provides two virtual joysticks, configurable with
30 inputs each. You can assign a button to each type of joystick input. To
configure a joystick function, you can either select the key to assign from the
combo box or use the three-dot button to input the key from the keyboard. 


USE A KEYBOARD AND MOUSE AS A JOYSTICK

vJoy is a helpful tool for those who are using games and applications that
require a joystick. The app is useable as is, but it also offers configuration
options to suit your needs. The installation might take time, but, all in all,
it is a help to those who want to emulate joystick behavior. 


PROS

 * Highly configurable
 * 64-bit support
 * Signed drivers
 * Can be incorporated to your device as is


CONS

 * Installation takes time
 * Cannot keep the motion and speed like an analog joystick
 * Compatibility to PPJoy is limited to translation of joystick axes

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any
potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is
uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This
comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as
follows:


Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more
than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been
detected.


Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled
software.

WHY IS THE SOFTWARE PROGRAM STILL AVAILABLE?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false
positives.

WHAT IS A FALSE POSITIVE?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly
broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.


Blocked

It’s highly probable this software program is malicious or contains unwanted
bundled software.

WHY IS THIS SOFTWARE PROGRAM NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN OUR CATALOG?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are likely to be
real positives.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially
malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of
programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every
catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those
concerns as soon as possible.
