Daphne Question: Wrong Player 1 joystick ID
« on: September 19, 2021, 03:57:12 pm »
Hi all!  This one is a curious problem I'm having.  I'm running COINOPS Diamonds 3 and recently Daphne games get confused and set the wrong joystick for player 1.  This is NEW and originally worked correctly when I first installed.  ONLY my Daphne games (Dragon's Lair, Cliffhanger, etc) get affected.

My setup: 4PL (P3, P1, P2, P4),Windows 10, CoinOPS FE, IPAC Ultimarc I/O (x2), Ultrastik 360s

So when I start up Daphne, P3 joystick controls player 1.  P1 is unresponsive.  The BUTTONS are all working correctly.
I've set the controller ID's in MAME so they should be consistent.  In other MAME games the controller loadout works correctly .  Now, when I unplug P3 Ultrastik USB, the assignment moves over immediately to a different controller.  When I unplug the other 3, P1 finally works.  Not ideal.  :D  Yes, I have made changes to various settings over time, but can't pinpoint when this happened.  Usually most changes have been changing menus in CoinOPS, and nothing directed towards Daphne.  Any ideas?  Thanks!

Daphne input is the first joystick and is analog.  However when you state CoinOps we are not talking OGXBOX right?

If it is the PC version then I would refer to the Daphne Launcher and check for the controls configuration then overwrite the the config file.

Odds are that you might have changed the control order.
