DirectInput Compatibility Mode for Older Games

[Abu Brandino]

Games like StarLancer which is made by Star Citizen's Chris Roberts, supports Joysticks. However it is extremely difficult to set it up for games like this. I have managed but not without disabling a bunch of stuff. Would there be any way to add such a compatibility mode which would help with other games that demand a basic joystick akin to the Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2.

Any suggestions or help would also be appreciated.
