PCSX Control Configuring

horomancerOP
#1
I've gotten a couple of PS1 roms that I would like to play 2 players on. I've got 2 Logitech controls that work fine with other emulators, but when I try to use both with the PCSX the second control does not register. I went into the plugin and Bios option and set up the control on the Game Pad 1 menu. It worked fine when I tested it. I clicke on Game Pad 2 and saw the values for the keys all mached Game Pad 1. I clicke on the Pad 2 just to be certain at the top then hit Close and started up a game.
Control pad 1 works with you any troubles
Control pad 2 does not respond what so ever.
I have tried changing the file path for controler 2 from /dev/input/js0 to /dev/input/js1 but it seems that these changes do not stay. If I close down and re-open the configure menu the file path is back to /dev/input/js0
The values for the buttons are still the same though.

I'd recommend using ePSXe for PS1 emulation instead. I have not had any issues with it recognizing my controllers.

I'll give it a try. I'm not happy with the PCSX website not being updated since 2003 -_-

I'd rather the team work on PCSX2 anyway, PS1 emulation is pretty decent as is, PS2 has a lot of work left.

I see they have a linux exacutable but it doens't seem to want to work.
I was using PCSX since that was in the Ubuntu repositories

Well... I don't know about running it on Linux. Doesn't Linux have something that lets it run windows software? Winbox or something like that.

I think if you find the epsxe site there is a linux version.

i got the linux executable but it doesn't seem to do anything
I haven't gotten any plugins or bios, so that could be part of it, but i thought that was just for booting up an .ISO

The ePSXe automatic configuration itself has recommendations on what plug-ins you use.Try this article:

Crap on a cracker. I got the PCSX to see both controlers, but it scrambles the keys up! My control pad is no Square X Circle and Triangle, L1 is now Start and it just all sucks.Still can't ge ePSXe to work, and the offical install guide on the website doens't seem to be working. I click on a link but nothing loads, the page just refreshes.

...Prehaps it's dieing...There should be a link on the site to just download some plugins-get some that sit your needs (get 2 of each-one as backup)...It's easy to install-on my rig I placed it anywhere-and used the auto configurator on the emu...

i don't get why the auto run isn't working. I checked its permissions and it should be able to "run as program"
I'll try uninstalling the PCSX files in synaptic and see if that makes any difference
