Permanent assign controller to player issues

Unread post by callanabrown »

Hello all,

I'm trying to figure out how to permanently assign controllers on my MiSTer arcade machine. I'm using Antonio's JAMMA adapter (which is pretty fantastic for the price by the way).

So I see that just recently permanent controller assignments are possible. Here's the relevant section of dmesg after loading the menu:

Code: Select all

I've tried the following in my ini to no avail:

Code: Select all

player_1_controller=usb-ffb40000.usb-1.2/input2
player_2_controller=usb-ffb40000.usb-1.2/input3

Code: Select all

player_1_controller=0003:2341:8037.0001
player_2_controller=0003:2341:8037.0002

Code: Select all

player_1_controller=usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2:1.2/
player_2_controller=usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2:1.3/

I'm on the May 26 distribution so should be all up to date. Any ideas?

Antonio responded by email to say that the correct settings would be:

Code: Select all

player_1_controller=2341:8037.0001
player_2_controller=2341:8037.0002

But it's still not working for me. I might try a new mister installation since my ini has been carried over for a long time.
