Hi

joystick can be used with only games which are designed for joystick. Joystick usually works independent of keyboard and mouse. It allows you to play game as designed by developers. 

So you can only perform those task in IGI which are allowed or designed by developers.

You need to check game’s joystick setting.

Thank you

Hello Kurt Andrew,

Try to buy a joystick.

Then plug it on your laptop.

Install it and Configure/ Edit the settings and the compatibility of both.

But joysticks are only can be use for games.

Best way is to use your keyboard.

 

Hope this helped you!
