Just Something I'd Like to share...
 

found this program after i got the urge to use my 360 control pad for rm2k3;)

what i basically done was i used this to connect my 360 control pad to my computer then downloaded this to configure the rm2k3 buttons {Z,X,[shift], etc} to my control pad for better control over the game :D now instead of having [Z] for action, [shift] for special power, and [1-9] for items, i can set all that up on the control pad :D it can also be set up to a usb control pad, so with the right events/script, you can have 2 player games without sharing the keyboard lol

only bad thing is the progam is a 30 day trial which sucks lol :( guess not everything is perfect... let me know how you guys get along with it:D or if you find a different freeware program with the same features let me know, i'll keep searching too :)
