      Hi!

      I have a Rpi 2B connected via 4 N64 female controller connectors.

      The ports and controller reads data as follws:
      Port - Joystick (js#)
      p1 - js3
      p2 - js4
      p3 - js0
      p4 - js1

      This makes it so that i have to connect to the player 3 port to play as player 1..
      I have tried editing the line input_player#_joystick="1"( <- from my head, but i think you recognize the line...) but with no change...

      Is there a way to ser js1 as p0 and so on?
      worsk case i will re-solider everything, but i'd rather not...

          Just so we're all sure to be on the same page, which N64 emulator are you using?

            Had the same problem with retroarch emulators. Solved it by using joystick selection:

            https://github.com/meleu/RetroPie-joystick-selection/blob/master/README.md

            In mupen standalone you can define controllers via their device name, so they won't switch around.
