MECHWARRIOR 2 ANALOG JOYSTICK UPDATE

Mechwarrior 2 (MW2) for PSX does fully support Sony's analog joystick.
 However, the game manual does NOT provide the necessary information for
using the analog stick.  Fortunately, Mechwarrior and Khan Jeff Katin has
solved the mystery for using the analog stick in the game.

Here's Khan Katin's solution:

Set the switch to "Analog" on the joystick.  The hat button on the right
stick will then perform the "Up" and "Down" functions for selecting Menu
items etc.  You do not need to select a Controller Setup in the Options
Screen.  The analog joystick will perform the following (undocumented)
functions in the game:

Right Stick - Controls the torso (L/R twists, U/D to raise or lower view)
   X - Select Target
  O - (not used)
  [] - Fire
  /\ - (not used)
  Hat - L/R for weapon select, U/D for Zoom in/out

Left Stick - Controls movement (L/R for turns, U/D for throttle)
  R1 - Show Objectives
  R2 - (not used)
  L1 - (not used)
  L2 - Jump Jets

Using the above setup adds an entirely new and exciting level of gameplay to
MW2.

Thanks Jeff!
