One way to have keyboard modifier/prefix keys work with joybuttons, is to config the joysticks 'official' drivers (logitech, saitek, MS, thrustmaster, etc) to output keyboard keys instead of joybuttons.

I configured my logitech drivers to output 6, 7, 8 and 9, when i press joy1, joy2, joy3 or joy4.

then i can use the normal AHK prefix/modifier keys:

space & 6::send (insert game code here)
space & 7::
space & 8::
space & 9::

etc



Another way to use modifier keys is with a script like this:

Holding down the spacebar;
will change Joybutton2 and the POV hat switch.


Code:
#HotkeyInterval 1000       ;     default 2000
#MaxHotkeysPerInterval 250    ; default 5

!r::reload
!q::suspend

               ;Joy2 changed by 'spacebar'
Joy2:: 
getkeystate, state, space, P
if state =  D
   {
   MsgBox, 0, , spacebar       spacebar      spacebar   , .7
   return
   }
MsgBox, 0, , normal , .7
return



               ;POV switch modified by 'spacebar'
space::
getkeystate, state, JoyPOV
   ifequal, state, 0,         Send, {up}
   ifequal, state, 9000,      send, {right}
   ifequal, state, 18000,      send, {down}
   ifequal, state, 27000,      send, {left}
sleep, 50
return

If the space bar is held down;

joy2 and the POV buttons are still,
sent to the game, so one needs to config the game to ignore them.

You probably know that support for prefixes with joystick buttons is planned.
