*Server supports now XInput and DInput emulation*
*DroidJoy server 2.0.1. works on Windows 7 and above*

Before installing the app
1. Download the DroidJoy server software from https://grill2010.github.io/droidJoy.html#download
2. Install and start the server on your PC (If you have any problems, don't hesitate to contact me)
3. Be sure that your server and your Smartphone are in the same network. If you intend to use Bluetooth, be sure your PC is set to visible.
4. Start the DroidJoy app. Navigate to the "Connect" window and click "Search server".

Windows 10 1903 problem:
DInput is no longer supported in the server version 2.1.0. If you still need to use DInput you must use the DroidJoy server version 2.0.4 and you must have installed an older Windows version than Windows 10 build 1903.

With DroidJoy you can use your Android Smartphone as PC Joystick / Controller. Almost every game is supported due DInput and XInput emulation. Play games like GTA V, Call of Duty, Need for Speed, Sonic Mania, GTA San Andreas, Counter Strike and many more.

If you have any problems with the installation of the server, don't hesitate to contact me. I will reply as soon as possible.

!Be sure the DroidJoy server is running when you start your game or emulator. The game may not recognize gamepads which are plugged in during its runtime. In this case, simply restart your game!

* Use WiFi or Bluetooth connection
- X-Box 360 controller emulation with native XInput driver

Information
- If you want to connect more than one Smartphone with your PC, you have to configure the same amount of virtual gamepads in the server application.

Note: It can have several reasons if your game doesn't recognize the virtual gamepad as input device. Some new games just support X-Box gamepads and won't work with DInput gamepads. If you want to play a game which only supports PC-X-Box gamepads, you have to configure the DroidJoy server to emulate XInput devices.
