Title: MAME Games Not Recognizing Second Xbox Controller
Post by: oxygenaddict on December 19, 2016, 11:53:47 pm

When Im trying to map the controls to the second xbox (one) controller (both wired), it doesn't recognize when I press a button to map it.
Is there any way to make MAME recognize the controller?

running the latest MAME btw

Do you have the game paused?  If you do, don't do that.  ;)  Also make sure joysticks are enabled.  That's all I can think of.

Ha.. if it only the solution was that simple.. and it was.
Joysticks are on by default in 0.180 so I never turned it on, but when I went to check, I saw the multi-keyboard option, I said why not.

To anyone encountering this problem:

Open mame64.exe

>Advanced Options
>turn on "Multi-Keyboard" under "Input Options"
>save in previous menu
