Xpadder or Joy2Key- Which is better?

[Red]

I'm thinking about using either Xpadder or Joy2Key for nullDC and I was wondering which is better, or more preferred?  Thanks.

I used Joy2key for a long time, then recently tried Xpadder. I'll never use Joy2key again. Xpadder is SOOOOOOOOOO much better. I love it.

I checked xpadder today, but I cant use that in my cab, because it only support 1 joystick (why?), while joy2key support 16. I diddent find any way to get the second joystick to work.

So for my cab I have only one choice, I still use Joy2Key, since it acutely work as it should and no more, even the interface is much better in XPadder.

You need to make a profile  (known as cfg in joytokey) for each controller.
To configure it you click on the 2nd controller then assign the keys like normal.


Then from the command line, to load both profiles at the same time you would do it like this.

Code: [Select]

xpadder.exe mame mame2pmame being the first player's profile
mame2p being the 2nd player's profile.

I made a tutorial here. (spanish)

he-he, I didn't notice these buttons, simply because they did not have any icon or text on these buttons in my version. That is property why I trougch it only support one joystick.

Xpadder seen to been a very cool application I put in my cab and have a better interface than Joy2Key.

Otherwice if you dosent need to reprogrammering, Joy2key do also work fine.
