DroidPad 0.9.8 – Windows 7 (64-bit) fixed!!?!

DroidPad works with Windows 7! (Tested on Win7 32 & 64-bit computers)

Unfortunately, this does mean that DroidPad > 0.9.8 no longer supports Windows 2000, since this new version of PPJoy doesn’t. (Non-joystick functions will still work).

I also made some videos to show the install process on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows XP 32-bit.

However, 64-bit installations require a restart while installing: Windows needs to enable ‘test mode’ to install and use PPJoy, which puts ‘test mode’ in the bottom right of the screen. There is nothing that I can yet do about this, but there are programs on the internet that can remove the message. I’ve not tried it, but My Digital Life have a program to do this.

This minor annoyance may disappear in a later version of PPJoy, but I’m not sure.
