PC version - Shift key for direct freekicks and skill moves

Anyone know if its possible to configure a game pad button for the shift key. I'm using a USB 2-axis game pad.

In the manual, it says to use the right shift and arrow keys to put spin on a direct free kick, and to hold shift key and arrow keys to do varios skill moves.

When practising direct free kicks the shift key doesn't do anything.

Cheers.

Just got this response from EA.

Controller reconfiguring is available with the FIFA 1.1 patch. Not all keys can be remapped however, and I believe the shift key cannot be remapped. Sorry.

You can find the patch at:

http://www.easports.com/games/fifa2004/patches.jsp

-----

What has changed in Version 1.1


- Added Multiplayer (Direct IP and Local Area Network) in Game Modes
- Added Controller Settings in Options
- Added Detail Level in Advanced Settings
- Added Save Replay in Instant Replay
- Fixed loss of mouse control in Practice Pause Menu
- Fixed EASO localization on the Brazilian Portuguese build

Notes:
- Direct IP supports 2 PC's, 4 users max per PC
- LAN supports up to 4 PC's, 2 users max per PC
- To remap a controller on the Controller Settings screen, click with the mouse on the keys/buttons you want to change
- Use the Detail Level option to fine tune the performance of the game with your PC - a lower level will improve the speed, a higher level will increase the graphical quality
- Saved replays can be loaded from the Save/Load screen


So it looks like skill moves and being able to put spin on the ball isn't possible with a gamepad on the PC?!

Think i'll be taking it back to Game next Friday and exchanging it for PES3.
