How to enable 2nd XBOX360 controller for 2 player games

Just fitted a wireless sensor and xbox 360 controller instantly mapped and working amazingly....but how do i setup two controllers ?

Just sync the 2nd controller to the wireless adaptor. Hold down the wireless sensore button. Then hold down 2nd controllers home button to sync as 2nd controller.

If it's synced the secondary light on the controller will be litten up.

Check your settings for joystick 2 in winuae. And change mouse to xbox controller 2.

UPDATE
Uninstalled WS-UAE and reinstalled, now both xbox360's working perfectly.....looks like the
default xinputcontroller and #2 were not in the Windows....

Ok
I have parred synced both controllers one has the top left light on the other the top,right light......now neither controllers will work with QUAK.....previously one was working ok...
can someone give me a step by step guide...I am obviously missing something

thanks

QUAK? whats that?

[reddwarf4ever]

QWAK
came in a double disk alien breed special edition and QWAK very addictive games..

both two player.....
now playing Rick dangerous can't work out how to plant bombs...
is there a resource for game controls ?

If your playing cd32 games you may need to remap your joystick buttons to your 360 controller. In settings of winuae.

Standard controls for normal amiga games like Rick dangerous should work without changing settings.

To plant bomb. Hold the fire button down and move joystick down.

To plant moving bomb same process but diagonally down. (That might be for rick d 2) can't remember if rick 1 can do diagonal bombs

I'd contact Tony about that in one of his winuae threads

Does it still not work for you? It should be quite straight-forward. You should see "Xinput Controller" and "Xinput Controller #2" in the device drop down lists if the controllers are recognized by Windows.

If you have problems for a specific game, please give a brief description of what you are trying to accomplish, and what does not work as expected. And add fs-uae.log.txt.
