Using analog stick as d-pad

[Buka]

I was trying to play King of Fighters 2001 on PCSX2, and the game utilizes only d-pad inputs. But for some reason that I don't know, the analog stick worked just fine in PCSX2 v1.6.0 with Lilypad plugin.

I'm using a PS5 Dual Sense controller with default settings and mappings in both versions. I tried mapping the analog stick to the d-pad in configurations, but the game just goes crazy as if the controller had drift issues (which isn't the case).

Is there a way to use the analog stick in v2.2.0 like I did in v1.6.0?

Thanks in advance!

you can map dpad to stick and set sensitivity to max to mimic dpad's behaviour

Thank you very much!

Just setting sensitivity to max made the controller behave a little strange, but after some tweaking in sensitivity and deadzone I got some pretty acceptable results.

Again, thank you very much for the help!
