Emulator

Appears to be working again...wierd. Did someone fix this?? :P

Looks like it was working properly as of 4687 last. It was broken by 4696. I believe
it was 4691 which screwed around alot with Njoy and broke this (again). Please
revert so we can have our 2 gamepads back. :) Thanks!

Yep, using the Plugin_nJoy_SDL.dll from 4687 allows 2 controllers to be used again
in newer revisions. That is where the problem lies exactly. Go get 'em!

So it was working until ~r4687 and got broken by r4696 ?

Correct. :) I think the 4691 commit was the culprit. Thanks for looking into this!
Good luck!

r4691 is definitely not the cause. But I don't know which rev it should be since I
don't have two pads to test.

I don't know. I'll test it once you think you've figured it out. It was something in
those 9 revisions...it's gotta be! :)

I think it is either before r4687 or after r4696, not between.

Well, you know more than I do on this. All I can say is the Njoy.dll from 4687 works
fine, but the one from 4696 does not and hasn't ever since. But there might be
something else going on here, who knows? Thanks again for checking it out! Maybe
Santa will bring you a 2nd controller! :)

I suggest you use njoy.dll from r4691, but take the wiimote.dll from r4687 and test.

I tried that with 4692, no difference. I tried 4688 also and it was fine. So the
problem is with specifically the Njoy.dll file and caused by either 4689, 4690, 4691
or 4692 - but really reading the commits the only 2 possibilities are 4691 & 4692.

It was to do with adding the "enabled" checkbox or something - it only recognizes
one controller as if it's looking at the OS since it's using my "preferred"
controller (Control Panel - you have to pick one there). Can't just be a
coincidence.

The ini file looks correct...but maybe it's just not reading it right?

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Same exact thing is going on for wiimotes now that 2+ can be used - it only
recognizes input from one controller.

Please check your wiimote.ini
What are the values of

[Wiimote1]
DeviceID = ?
[Wiimote1]
DeviceID = ?

Issue 1828 has been merged into this issue.

Work around when using save by ID and configuring multiple controllers plugged in one
at a time does not work when they are the same controller, in this case A sixaxis and Dual-shock 3, but a Dual-shock and a Logitech do....

[Wiimote1]
DeviceID = 0
[Wiimote1]
DeviceID = 1

The dropdown for the controller is properly set - wiimote is using the 360
controller on top in the dropdown list and wiimote 2 is using the bottom device. But
when I go to edit a button assignment it only accepts input from the controller in
the top of the list - no input ever, anywhere from my 2nd 360 - all 4 wiimote config
screens only recognizes input from padd 1.

Meant this actually:

[Wiimote1]
DeviceID = 0
[Wiimote2]
DeviceID = 1
[Wiimote3]
DeviceID = 0
[Wiimote4]
DeviceID = 0

Same problem as wespipes69, and also it always is the same USB port that it happens to
as well. All controller get input from same controller on the same usb port

How about r4760?

ayuanx: why don't you mention it this way: "fixes issue xxxx", in your commits?
it'll auto-close the issues :P

Issue 1287 has been merged into this issue.

Actually I'm not sure if it is fixed, but I think it should :P

well now you know that above for future issues you fix :)

Issue 1580 has been merged into this issue.

Issue 1862 has been merged into this issue.

Njoy behaves no differently in rev 4760 - only recognizes input from one controller
no matter which one is selected.

However, this DOES fix the wiimote plugin. Now it looks at both my controllers
properly and only accepts input from the selected device in the dropdown.

Though I still can't figure out how to make the console see that I have both
controllers plugged in - eg I can't do multiplayer in games like NSMB. :(

Also, the nunchuck still doesn't remember if it's set to something other
than "keyboard". Is that known?

Anyway, great progress though! You're my hero ayuanx!!!! And I do like the way
you "resolve" things - I hate it when something might be fixed and then the issue
gets closed out before confirmation.

So do you mean that Wiimote plugin now supports multi-pad in both button mapping
window and in game play?

For me, nunchuck DOES remember the button mapping no matter it is mapped to keyboard
or gamepad. Just remember to click "OK", not "Cancel".

Why can't you do multi-player in NSMB?

Just set emulated wiimote 1 to gamepad 1 and emulated wiimote 2 to gamepad 2

Then start game, click menu->tools->connect wiimote 2
Voila, see if your 2 gampads are both working

For the nunchuck: I thought I saw someone else have this problem. I am pressing ok
also. Fresh install, if I set it to analog 1 or 2, it always reverts to keyboard. I
wonder why you dont see this?

For the wiimote multipad: button mapping perfect! gameplay can't test because
following your steps I still don't get 2 wiimotes active.

Here's what I do: Wiimote 1 & 2 assigned to different controllers, I launch the emu,
launch NSMB, connect wiimote 2, press Home, but no 2nd controller lit up. Tried
pausing emulation then connecting wiimote 2, still the same. Tried various things
with emu and in game, but I never get that 2nd wiimote lit up in the Home screen. :(

So should we close this now? Since all got fixed in r4764

PS: don't know your situation, but multi-wiimote works for lots of people, incluing me
