dbas Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hello. i have an arcade cabinet with 4 controllers(2 xbox one and 2 xbox 360 brook universal). The usb port assignments/priority seem to change after power cycles. This causes chaos for some emulators as the Player 1\2 seem to alternate with all 4 controllers. is there away to statically assign these?

SentaiBrad Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 As far as I know, many people have that issue and I haven't seen a solution for it yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbas Posted March 25, 2017 Author Share Posted March 25, 2017 yeah i wished there was a way to set the controller priorities. it would make life so much easier.. i was hoping buying two different generations of controllers would solve that problem..

SagaXIV Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I've recently sorted it out ( I think, it works for me). Let me verify exact settings, and I'll come back to you guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagaXIV Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Ok, undr windows 10, I went under "Power management options", then for the mode I use "advanced parameters" (might not be exact term in English, my windows 10 is in French. Then under USB, Disable suspended USB whatchamacallit. Then if I remember correctly, you need to go under the setting sof your usb concentrator(s), and disable the sleep mode, or wahtever it is called. The above procedure should stop the controller order from resetting, etc. It does work for BT controllers too. I hope I make sense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagaXIV Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 @SentaiBrad If this "workaround works for every setup, I think it should be stickied or something. I really struggled a long time for this fix! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Well, that might work, but now the controller will never sleep if it's wireless, draining the battery, and I'm not sure if that will fix the issue after a restart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
