I made a mistake when i converted joystick mode to 1 button joystick in The Sword of Ianna, start running was not impossible, but a bit hard, now it has been corrected, and the game works with 2 buttons joystick also.
1 button joystick
Fire+up: unsheathe (it was already in)
Down: put away sword
2 buttons josytick
Fire2: unsheathe/put away sword
If Fire2 or keyboard sword key (default right shift) is pressed then it inactivates 1 button jostick put away sword action, in the menu it is activated again.
Link in 2 posts below points to the new version.
