Silent Hill 2 Control Issues

[punishederic]

I ran this game on the PCSX2 Emulator like two years ago on the same computer I'm using now and for some reason ANY and EVERY version of this game I can get for my emulator, the menus are broken and will move down constantly as if I'm pressing down, if I move the menu cursor once, it stops for like 2 seconds and then starts moving down again. It's not my controller, I've tested it with Silent Hill 3 on the same emulator, and I've played countless other games that I play with this controller.

If anyone has a fix for my technical issue, I'd be very grateful. Many thanks to anyone who can help me out!

Where did you get these games and their versions?

Where did you get these games and their versions?

To my knowledge I have only tried this with the 2.01 release. Which should be the greatest hits version of the game, I can't tell you where I got them, forum rules.

Please post the contents of the emulog.txt file after the problem occurs. The file can be found in "My Documents\PCSX2\logs" for the installer version or in "PCSX2\logs" for the portable/binary version.

Please make sure to enclose your emulog in code tags like so (remove the empty space on the closing code tag!):

I actually fixed it and I'm gonna tell you guys how in case someone needs to know. All I had to do was go into my plugin settings and under the "General" tab under "Game Device APIs" ONLY CHECK XInput, this fixed the issue completely. Idk why it's only having issues with silent hill 2 but hey tech is weird I don't have the answers.
