Thanks, but it didn't work properly for me. It's a moot point now anyway. (see below)

I'm sorry my post was too long for you. I'll condense it;

GlovePIE isn't malware and doesn't make ANY changes to your system. Just try it out and see how it works with whatever games you have. It's strange to make PPSSPP map the mouse to an axis, then to the buttons, when they're two different things. Wouldn't it make more sense to just read the mouse directly for the buttons and generate button presses like GP does? While I agree that true analog support is better and modded games are best, not all games have analog support or mods. People still want to play those games and faking it with the mouse is the next best option. If done well, such control can be quite usable and better than the alternative of using the buttons. Watch the video I uploaded to see how gamepad, mouse control and GlovePIE compare. It's only 17MB and 2 minutes.

Yes, thank you, that works. It never occurred to me to enable mouse control without actually using it. I had assumed that it would only hide the pointer when the mouse was being used in the program.
