Can only use one Xbox360 controller at a time? Trying to use TWO. - stevinn - 07-14-2014

I'm on OSX Mavericks. I have two wireless 360 controllers, trying to play Smash Bros with my wife. For some reason I can only get the game to recognize one controller at a time, which is the one that most recently registered with the wireless reciever. If I re-sync the other one, the first one is no longer recognized.

Note that Dolphin will recognize BOTH at the same time, as is evidenced by the GCPad setup. I have one set to Pad 1, and the other to Pad 2. In theory, it's working fine. But when I actually open up the GAME, the game only recognizes whichever controller was last synced with the reciever.

The Tattiebogle driver also recognizes both simultaneously.

They are legit 360 controllers, not an off brand. The reciever is made by Microsoft.

Any thoughts?

Stephen

I hate emulators more and more everyday man. So many problems they get so frustrating. Try buying a separate receiver? One for each controller... best of luck...

I figured it out. It's a stupid little problem but very simple to resolve.

I had to go to the Dolphin menu - Configure - Gamecube, then set Port 2 to be Standard Controller instead of nothing.
