I found this out recently, and I didnt see any other topics about this so for you people who want to use any controller for RMXP - well here ya go;
(Note: I tested this with Game Elements Gemini Recoil controller:-/ , but I know it works with all controllers)
Step 1: You will have to download Control MK --> http://redcl0ud.com/controlmk/index.html
Control MK emulates any keyboard or mouse movement, so you can use this for any game you want! (for example, if you want to control the cursor in morrowind in the menu and stuff, you can do that! I will explain that if anyone wants to know how.)
Step 2: Install and open ControlMK
Step 3: Plug in your controller, and refresh the top list, then after refreshing, scroll down to find your controller name and select it. (note: if you dont find your controllers name, make sure your computer recognizes it as being plugged in, then if you still have problems, go to control panel and to game controllers and configure/install it...THEN if you STILL have problems, post here I will try to help.)
Step 4: Press the ADD button underneath where you selected your controller, and under ADD select your controller again.
Step 5: Now, where it says Profiles, (and has a long white box) to the right of that press the button with the ">" on it and click ADD
Step 6: Name the new profile whatever you want.
Step 7: Now you should have a screen with the list of X axis, and Y axis, Z rotation and Z axis. They are not set to any buttons right now.
Step 8: You know the controls to RMXP right? UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT. So you need to configur the analogs to these buttons.
Move with the RIGHT analog
Find Z axis - and click on it. A little window will pop up, scroll down until you find VK_UP (which is the keyboard UP key) and select it. Do not worry about the Auto-Repeat.
Do the same with the followind to their corresponding keys:
Z axis + = VK_DOWN
Z rotation - = VK_LEFT
Z rotation + = VK_RIGHT
Move with the LEFT analog
Find X-axis - and click on it. A little window will pop up, and scroll down until you find VK_LEFT (which is keyboard LEFT key) and select it. Do not worry about Auto-Repeat.
So the same with the followind to their corresponding keys:
X axis + = VK_RIGHT
Y axis - = VK_UP
Y axis + = VK_DOWN
Step 9: Once you have those set, you will probably want to open your menu somehow. X is default key for menu/exit. Go find out what your controller buttons are (in the control panel) and set it to what you want. Be careful, the buttons in Control MK start at 0 and control panel starts at 1. Note: I'm pretty sure all buttons by default are enter, but if thats not working, you might want to set that to the button you want also.
Step 10: Leave the bottom at default, and click save. It is imperative you do not close Control MK You can minimize it if you want to.(Note: when you minimize Control MK is NOT gone! It simply has retreated to your taskbar - bottom right as an icon!)
Step 11: Open RMXP and test the analogs...and enjoy!
Now, if you have a different move system, like click to make your guy move where the mouse is, just make a button MOUSE_LEFT_CLICK.
Like I said this will work with any game, and actually emulates the movement, so if you want to mess around with it, you could easily find out how to move the mouse around with the analog, click etc. I will help you if you want to know how to do this/use Control MK for any other game.
If anyone has ANY problems or questions, post here and I will help/answer to the best of my abilities!
