I have the Mad Catz PC Con gamepad that I would like to use for Splinter Cell (and other games too). The issue I have is that using GamePad Companion, I can't adjust the way the cursor behaves when bound to the right stick. So when I move it it's slow, only moves at a constant speed, and only in the 8 directions (not completely free movement). What I wanted was complete free movement and that if I push the stick more it moves faster.

In contrast to that, I tried the using USB Overdrive to bind the cursor the the analog stick. The good news, it has logrithimic movement (that is, the more I push the stick, the faster it goes; which is what I want) and it's much smoother which completely free movement. The bad news, it only works on the left analog stick and I wanted it to be used on the right stick. Also it doesn't register the right stick's vertical axis so I can only use the horizontal axis.

Does anyone know of any program/method where I can get everything I want? I've been trying to look around but haven't had much success.
Any help would be great!

OS: 10.4.3
GamePad Companion version: 2.3 (latest)
USB Overdrive version: 10.4 (latest)
