Help! I cant get two Arcade Sticks to work properly?!
-
@BuZz Sorry but i cant find a "Meleu"....
he´s just saying to add something somewhere, not where that actually is or anything...
and
input_vendor_id = XX
input_product_id = XX
this does not help either, what should i put in space of the XX ? -
The first link -
the product id and vendor id won't help you in this case as the devices are identical.
-
@BuZz so i cant fix my problem? sorry if i´m not that able to understand everything i´m still learning...
-
@KingVarus you can if you can hardcode player1 and player2 as in the link above - the post from meleu. If you don't understand that post, what don't you understand ?
the link to the bugtracker was more for the emulationstation fix - you can use the DeviceGUID for that - but you can leave ES to just work on one controller anyway.
The main thing in retroarch, and you need to edit the retroarch config as in the link.
-
Wouldn't it just be easier to wire up the controls identically ?
-
@BuZz Ok i think i know what "meleu" says in that thread.
But i dont know where to find that config, neither do i know what to write in there.
How do i know what button has which number ? or which axis is what number?
It´s just so confusing, and how does it solve my problem? if i hardcode like he says, how do i hardcode the controls for the second controller? which is the same, and therefore does not have his own config? -
@KingVarus the config can be edited over samba or sftp or via commandline over ssh. There are details on the wiki how to do this.
If you have an existing config, you will have the details for one player. you could save it and reconfigure (either in Emulationstation or Retroarch RGUI) to get the details for the other player or use a commandline tool like
jstest. Unfortunately you will have to be hands on to fix it.Regarding my other question you didn't answer - why don't you just wire the controls up identically for both ? Then you wouldn't have this problem. That would seem an easier fix if you are not comfortable with manual editing etc.

@BuZz i think i solved my problem! it works for now! you sir are the best!
there was 1 connection not wired up the same as the others...now it just worked :D
thank you ! you´re the best!
