Overview

PPJoy stands for Parallel Port Joystick and it is designed to add virtual joysticks under windows operating system. It was never designed to run on Windows 7, this is why process is more complex when installing it under window 7, but it is working with little bit of effort and this article explains in detail on how anyone can run this under windows 7.

- Why it does not work normally under windows 7? - Reason for this, is because Windows 7 is designed to block unsigned / non verified drivers, this has nothing to do with security as microsoft says it is, this is conspiracy to make microsoft more money. Every developer who wants to have signed drivers under windows 7, has to pay a lot of money to microsoft so they will add their drivers into the whitelist (signed / verified list).

- I have seen a program run just fine and they have not payed anything to microsoft (friend wrote a program.etc), how is that possible? - It's simple, not all programs use their own drivers, in fact most programs do not use their own drivers. PPJoy uses own drivers, because it needs to connect hardware with software and this is what driver does. It virtually adds a joystick and tells windows that joystick exists, while there is nothing connected to to your computer, for this purpose you need own drivers, because windows was never designed for such good and useful things.

Why would i want to use PPJoy in first place? - Most likely if you are here, you know why, but for those who were looking for something else and found this article, using PPJoy you can make virtual joystick and use for example Wii Remote to input into that joystick, that way you can make windows think that you are using xBox 360 controller, but actually you are holding Wii Remote in your hand and windows never knows about it. This is another conspiracy, most game developers nowdays make games so they natively support 360 controller, but others are nightmare to use, PPJoy eliminates those nightmares and allows you to use any controller the way you want, you can remap buttons from whichever controller you want, you can even mix controllers together.

Ppjoy Driver Windows 10

PPJoy was originally designed for joysticks/gamepads such as PlayStation, Sega, SNES (Super Nintendo) gamepads as well as those of older game consoles, like the Atari connected to the parallel port of your PC, but it also supports other devices connected via USB, MIDI or the virtual joystick interface.

The virtual driver interface allows you to emulate joystick input from other applications or other physical controllers. Windows will treat these devices just like any other joystick and they can be used in any game or application that accepts joystick input.
