    It's better to use a 3rd party program because Maplestory wont allow trigger keys to be mapped, among others on the Xbox controllers. I also like mapping joystick directions as buttons on my secondary stick. Some people use Xpadder. I programmed my own software for customization reasons however.

    There are a couple good ones, like xpadder, that can be used for keyboard mapping and other games as well

    most games do so I don't think they would really have an issue with it but it's safe to ask try asking on live chat?

    @Arwoo has adviced against using third party controller software (such as XPadder) on the official Discord Channel.
