Please let me know

You know what I am currently working on something exactly like that.
It can simulate all 4 joysticks. Move a button around in 2D space and it acts like a joystick.
Still working on simulating pwms using sliders and a ton of other features.
I keep making it more complicated by the minute as I keep thinking of new features to add.

I am doing it Visual C++ 2005 .NET 2. What I am doing is a long way from finished but a for now a couple of sliders shouldn't be too hard to do.
I can't test anything right now because I don't have access to a the OI/RC.

This is just one of the things I have been working. It simulates almost everything that can be done on a single OI port(except some switches and leds). I am planing on sending the data for all the ports about 20 times a second over the program port(don't want to overwhelm the RC).
