Ya, my teacher found another tutorial, however it didn't tell me how to get "button 1" to wire the joystick buttons up... I had to look up another tutorial and get through iprism to find it was unbundle by name... it would have been easier to copy + paste...

Nope, none were selected... EDIT: restarting the computer fixed it.
