Rik3Rr Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 (edited) Hi all, I've run into a strange issue with my 8bitdo Pro 2 controller... If I set the controller into x-input mode, then any emulator I try to launch hangs for 1-2 minutes before launching. Even the general interface of the emulator won't start; but, the second I disconnect the controller, everything launches immediately. This happens for Dolphin, Retroarch, etc... Even with Steam games, the game will launch but hang for 1-2 minutes, then start. If I set the Pro 2 into d-input mode, then everything launches immediately. But, I need to set it in x-input for dolphin so that I can enable rumble for the controller, and I don't like having to wait 2 minutes for a game to launch. Any help offered is much appreciated!

Strange, i would say its unrelated to the controller, or maybe a faulty controller or bluetooth adapter? I have the same controller and use it on my PC all the time with actual PC games as well as all of my emulators, and i exclusively use it in xinput mode. Do you have another PC you can test the controller on to see if it also happens there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something in windows on the pc-in-question that's doing this. That's my guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
