Gamepad not responding - Broshi - 06-28-2009 05:43 PM

I'm trying to setup Logitech Dual Action gamepad with Pcsx2. Both Lilypad and SSSPSX recognize the gamepad and all the buttons respond on the testing. However when I run a game I get no respond from any button when using Lilypad, and with SSSPSX the only respond I get is from the left analog stick X axis(With left, upper-left and lower-left all go upper-left; and right, upper-right and lower-right all going lower-right).

I tried testing it on both Pcsx2 0.9.6 and 1329 Beta with Lilypad svn 0.10.0, Lilypad 0.9.9 and SSSPSX Pressure Mod 1.7.0 plugins.
I have the latest driver for the gamepad.
I tested on Final Fantasy X and Metal Gear Solid 3 - both games working fine on all other aspects and with keyboard.

Any help would be kindly appreciated since some game mechanics are hard to do with a keyboard

Did you by any chance see if your mappings actually save? If not,run pcsx2.exe as administrator by right clicking it and move it to a folder where you have write permissions (like my documents)

You mean if anytime I restart Pcsx2 then my button configuration remain? Yes they do.


RE: Gamepad not responding - Bositman - 06-28-2009 06:46 PM

Hm this is strange...when you map buttons/axis with Lilypad,do the different buttons/axis get registered? Also try the test device feature of the plugin,see if any value there constantly changes without you pressing anything on the pad

I have the same pad and I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago but I don't remember exactly how I fix the problem Sad

Try backup all of your settings and delete them all and configure everything again.


RE: Gamepad not responding - Broshi - 06-28-2009 07:10 PM

The buttons get registerd with the ones I'm pressing accordinly, the values don't change when I test them when nothing is pressed, and I've deleted the .ini files and reconfigured when I switched between Pcsx 0.9.6 and the Beta and it didn't help.

I've attached my Lilypad config screen, maybe there's something wrong there.
Pad 1 is my Keyboard mapping and Pad 2 is the Gamepad.

Far fetched suggestion but are both First/Second Controller plugins set to lilypad in "config > configure"?


RE: Gamepad not responding - Broshi - 06-29-2009 02:57 AM

I've tried all the available combinations for the controllers.
I remind you that I do get a response when using SSSPSX plugin, so maybe something is not configured right, or Logitech Dual Action is not supported?

my HCL ORIGNAL JOYPAD/GAMEPAD (with 2 joysticks) works fine...Tongue

And how exactly this help?
Broshi what are your pcsx2 configurations,what plugins are you using(all of them)and also are you using speed hacks or something different that the default in Advanced

I'm sure that the problem was one of those:
1.Some option of some of the plugins is the cause of this.
2.Some plugin don't get along with LilyPad.
3.The revision(pcsx2 and plugins)that you're using is the problem.

It is supported,like I said above I have the same pad and it's working fine here(I also had this problem several weeks ago but I somehow I fix it...sadly I don't remember how)


RE: Gamepad not responding - Broshi - 06-29-2009 11:21 AM

No speed hacks are used and on default cycle rate.
Advanced setup is on default.
I've attached the main config screen so you see all the plugins.
Tried this exact setup on Pcsx2 0.9.6 and 1329 Beta.


RE: Gamepad not responding - Broshi - 06-30-2009 01:57 PM

So no one has any idea what could be wrong with my setup?

Edit: Ignore this, I read wrong Tongue


RE: Gamepad not responding - dralor - 06-30-2009 07:50 PM

You could always try a newer rev of lilypad I have the same pad and never had any troubles with it. Well besides pad related troubles that some of the buttons stick sometimes.


RE: Gamepad not responding - Aemony - 06-30-2009 08:35 PM

That was what I mentioned in my now edited post, but he already has the latest public beta revision, and as far as I know there is no newer... Or am I wrong?


RE: Gamepad not responding - dralor - 07-01-2009 01:32 AM

well according the screenshot he has r1034 which is pretty old on my own compiles I have r1388


RE: Gamepad not responding - Aemony - 07-01-2009 07:31 AM

There is no newer unless he want's to compile the game himself.
