nullDC lacks controller support?

I downloaded nullDC 1.0.3 because it is the newest release. I noticed that there was no controller support beyond my keyboard. It says that you can use Joy2Key in order to emulate a keyboard but this seems kind of unnecessary. Am I just an idiot and can't find another plugin to support controllers or do you have to use your keyboard as the primary input device?

Should be able to, search the official Forums (if they have one) for something similar.

I've been trying for the past few days, but unfortunately their site has been down.

Maybe it's been abandoned/site closed ?
