Neo Geo Controller Issues

[fingerchicken]

I went through and followed Floob’s video here: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2icw2z

I get my roms to load easily enough, but I’m having an issue getting the controllers (iBuffalo SNES style) to work. I get the player 2 to work (minus the menu button), but I cannot get the player 1 going. I am using uni-bios 3.1 (renamed as stated in the video). Here is my gngeorc info if anyone could help me out I would appreciate it:

# p1control A=K122,B=K120,C=K97,D=K115,START=K49,COIN=K51,UP=K273,DOWN=K274,LEFT=K276,RIGHT=K275,MENU=K27

Unibios seems to play silly buggers if you set it to arcade mode, when booting set it to Console mode. See about 26:30 on the video above. (You could try adding a # to the player 2 line just to check if the player1 works fine first)
To make it forget what region it is set to, delete the “memcard” file.

Or you could use “system arcade” instead.

If that doesnt work – have you confirmed your joypad buttons with jstest?

Sorry been busy at work. Thank you for your response.

Ok, now know that my controllers are working on other emulators, but this is what I get when I try to test them:

Sorry to keep going, it looks like it is scrolling everytime I hit a button vs. just changing state like your video.

When I put a hashtag in front of player 2, js0 is player 1. When I take it out, js0 is player 2. js1 does not work in either case, but I do get it to work when testing like the video above. This is the case in both unibios and arcade.

You have both players setup as J0, set player two to J1.
