The patch itself is very important and useful to me but has one small problem. Usually I have my gamepad (in gameport) set to ID #1 and sidewinder (in USB) to ID #2. When I want to play a game that uses a joystick, I unplug the gamepad and the sidewinder becomes workable. If I need to use the gamepad then I replug the gamepad in. The patch exe does not support joystick ID other than #1, so my method doesn't work in SDOE, and I have to go into control panel and manually switch the two controls. Is there a better way to do this? Can the patch be corrected to use other IDs as well? Is there anyway to have my two game controls work simultaneously?

With the gamepad on ID 2 other games won't work with it, but the joystick on ID 1 will. Most of the games that uses the gamepad can only accept input on ID 1.

Patch 1.5.2.10 will be an answer to this problem: you will have the opportunity to specify which device(s) FSSDOE should use, whatever ID.
