Arcade cabinet build with Launchbox & Bigbox issue

Recommended Posts

I have built a PC based arcade cabinet, The controller deck has two USB controllers which have the joysticks and buttons connected.

One USB controller has the Player 1 joystick connected and 10 buttons & the other USB controller has Player 2 joystick and 10 buttons.

These both work fine in Launchbox and I can launch Mame and play mame games - both 1 & 2 player with no issues.

If I launch Bigbox and go to the controller options - i can get only 1 USB controller to be seen - which is player two. 

I want Player 1 to be the controller for bigbox not player 2.

I would have thought Bigbox should see both USB controllers and allow you to define controls?

Anyone point me in the right direction - is it something I am doing wrong or is this correct with Bigbox?

Thanks. Yeah I have tried that.

Still seems Bigbox only sees one of the USB controllers

What brand are they? I have a couple builds using some generic USB encoders from Amazon and some brand names like iPac and BigBox has had no issues recognizing both. If you unplug player 2 will BigBox recognize player 1 at all?
