Please be aware that ;Input device for Virtual Port 1 appears multiple times in the cfg file. You are looking for the line that mentions psx directly beneath it.
I'm using a Steam controller and it'll only recognize the D-pad!
I tried with scale in 1.00 until 1.33 and doesn't matter, the analog range still not reaching 100% (I tested with Medal of Honor, Crash, Syphon Filter, Silent Hill) I really don't understand.
I use the X-BOX ONE S Gears of War 4 JD Fenix Limited Edition (I'm using with the cable)
It's weird, because IF I use the ePSXe emulator (and the X-Input) controller configuration, work's 100% perfect.
:-/
I followed everything but my game still recognizes Joystick/ Gamepad when I press f3. Could I get some help?
ok i did this and my controls are not working at all, and i have no idea why.
It didn't work for me. I made sure everything was in the correct field too.
Hey, I just saw your videos and I got mednafen working pretty nicely. But the moment I go fullscreen, the game window is limited to a little area of the screen, with the rest being black. How can I adjust it to match my monitor resolution? Must I do it from the cfg file? And if so, which options must I change and to what value?
Quick qestion, how do you use the sticks without the '3 analogue button(s) detected' message coming up all the time? is there a way to disable it?
I can't find analog axis scale, its not below "Input device virtual port 1". and when I change "gamepad" to dualshock, mednafen won't run.
My xbox controller inputs aren't working in-game after i finish the input configuration for the dualshock device on port 2. What can i do to fix this?
Took me 3 months to figure this out! What finally helped is for a brief moment u can see the numbers on the side of the list to get an idea of the actual location because there is alot to sift threw at a glance! Tnx for posting!
why not just download the program called mednaffe and put it where mednafen.exe is. when you open the mednaffe, it will be like open the actual emulator. however you can easily config the settings and controls without editing the config file here https://github.com/AmatCoder/mednaffe
Ok so how do I set my controller up for genesis?
I want to remap the keys on my keyboard because i dont have a numbpad. How do I do this?
Thanks for the video! Definitely helped me out!!
Finally Crash Bandicoot feels right with a stick! Cheers man, do you have a video on making the Mednafen full screen look good? When I Alt-Enter, it full screens properly, but the image is smaller than it is in the original window. Either a full 4:3 image with pillarboxing, or ideally a stretched 16:9 widescreen would be great, do you know how to fix this?
Love your 3 videos. Thank you so much
Ever since I set up my PS4 controller with the dual shock setup in game the games keep acting like the right trigger is being pressed down all the time and I have no idea what could be causing it.
I have been getting this issue "ROM image is too large; maximum size allowed is 67108864 bytes."
Hey man, even after reading Mednafen documentation, i cant figure out how to set up my 360 controller. If I try to input the 'dualshock' value in cfg value, mednafen just returns error "value "dualshock", is not a recognized string". I do have official wired 360 controller.
