This script works with Gamepad Extender by Lone Wolf to make the default scripts work well with a controller. It does not break things for keyboard users, so players using whatever they desire should be able to play with optimal controls.
To use this script, copy and paste it into your game under materials and above main, but Gamepad Extender must also be in the game under materials and above GE Game Adapter. You can get it here: http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/1284-gamepad-extender-v11-2202015

# Gamepad Extender Game Adapter
# by Jono99
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This allows the game commands to be handled in a way more friendly to controller
# input. Based off Gamepad Extender by Lone Wolf and requires Gamepad Extender
# in order to function.
# Link to download Gamepad Extender: http://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?/topic/1284-gamepad-extender-v11-2202015/
# Please give me credit when using this script in your game (and Lone Wolf, too, but that's becuse he made Gamepad Extender and is awesome).

There are also scripts out there that will overwrite this script. For this reason, I am taking requests for extension scripts that will add this functionality back in when another script overwrites it (ones for Arc Engine and Sapphire Action System IV are in the works right now). If you find a script that doesn't work with the base version, post about it in this thread detailing what script that conflicts with GE Game Adapter and provide a link to the script. I will check the script myself and create an extension script if I encounter the problem or message you telling you that I could not find any conflict.
