Note

Android application detects a few gamepad models.You can add yours or even change input reading code entirely. Also you can edit src/vJoyClient.cpp file to make it support your gamepad keys. This config works for me to play old genesis games ^_^ Anyway you probably need to get your hands dirty to get this working as you want.
