Hey guys I'm trying to control the flash movie with a gamepad/joystick instead of a keyboard. Is there any support in flash to do this? What would be the input method for triggering events based off gamepad buttons instead of a keyboard?

Yes you can do this offline using a Flash Projector by using Jugglor.

Yopu can use most of the available swf2exe applicaions out there. I preffer Zinc 2.5.

Stuff doesnt apply for web swf files though, its only for swf files used within an exe. You also just writte a small ap that translates gamepad buttons into key strokes so when flash read it thinks its using a keyboard... actually a niftier approcah cause you can have a 'dual control" using the same commands.
