...and I was too lazy to play engineer and create my own joystick button box
Besides, I did not want to spend too much effort to create one rigid setup (button box) which would have been diffcult to adapt for later requirements.

The solution that worked for me was touchbuddy.

This is my basic setup for bomb controls:


I use it, loaded with some more options, besides my CoD window because I have 3840x1024 desktop thus enough space as long as the 3Render view is not working in CoD


In your case I presume the best way is to connect a second monitor and place it there
I do not think it will cause a drop in fps but would be keen to hear the result if you ever test it.
Remember: You need to change one line in conf.ini in order to allow the free flow of the mouse between the CoD window and the Touchbuddy window:
in the [rts] section. Change "mouseUse=2" to "mouseUse=1"

This is the cheapest way to make a versatile, easy to remember extra buttons setup.

You can also make extremely complicated touchscreens:



A higher investment would require to buy a touchscreen screen, you can then control the buttons with your fingers!
Excellent solution, very immersive and very flexible!
