RetroArch P1 & P2 controller issue

[liljohnnybravo]

As mush as I hate to clog up the forums with my issues, this one has me stumped.

 

I've had a 1 player setup running fine using a 360 controller.

 

It's all set up for n64,MAME, GameCube, Dreamcast and PS2...it was set up for Retroarch also for the NES/SNES/Genesis/Master System.

 

Here is the issue, I decided to add a 2nd 360 controller for 2 player gaming, set up and working on n64,MAME, GameCube, Dreamcast and PS2, soon as I fire up anything that is going to use RetroArch the player 1 pad does recognise an inputs except the "exit- combo" and the player 2 pad takes over control, I've tried going into the F1 settings and re-binding all the keys so many times now it's crazy!

 

I have looked through all the config files and setting in HS and RL and can't see anything that could cause issues....sooo my thoughts are that this is something very simple that I am overlooking.

 

Any help would be much appreciated Guys and Gals

 

TIA

Are you using a key mapper like joytokey or xpadder?

Or a beta/nightly build by any chance?

Hi guys cheers for the replies, not using any key mappers at the mo, I did try out xpadder and joy2key a while back.

 

I'm using your tut build SA

[SIMPLYAUSTIN]

Hmmm well this is strange then?  You using 360s and you aint changed the controller settings?

[liljohnnybravo]

Only added the esc key buttons change like we spoke about the other day.

I've got a back up of the build onew an external that I'm gonna try as I know retroarch works on there lol.

SA all my build is from your video tuts HUGE THANKS and I will send you that beer I mention before

[SIMPLYAUSTIN]

No worries at all matey.  Hmmm it sounds like it may be the input has been changed, or Windows has switched wired/wireless drivers

Gonna try and track the error over a bottle of wine later, sent you that beer bud 

[liljohnnybravo]

Well the issue is still happening on the older back up from my HDD so I'm try a fresh build, gimme something to do I suppose lol

[damtjern]

Tried doing a windows update? They had some bugs recently in the drivers, for a period not all input was registered for me. Also, the newest nightlies is worth trying, have not found any bugs on the 29.feb build either

Well I've just done a full reinstall and so far the only one with an issue is the the Master System all the rest appear to working spot on. I suppose I can live without the MS lol
