Using multiple gamepads at one computer?

Post by Danno »

So like... I got two Logitech gamepads and they work individually, I guess. I can configure them and whatever, set the buttons on them to act as certain keyboard keys, etc. I can't seem to get ZSNES to distinguish each controller as its own, though. In other words, player 1 has the same controls as player 2. Does anyone know how I can set the gamepads on their own or whatever?
We were trying Bomberman 2, by the way, on the latest ZSNES release. Whenever I pressed the A button (which would be the same as player 2's A button, I suppose), it would freeze the game. Pressing it again would unfreeze it. None of the other buttons acted in this way, though. Anyhow, any help would be appreciated.

Disable/quit any kind of profiler/"joypad to keyboard" type software.

Just set input 1 and 2 properly. As in, no conflict with other features like pausing.
