Well actually I had a similiar problem first too, when trying to sign buttons to the keys nothing happened, wasn't able to sign any keys but then I just restarted the emu and it started working lol.

could you post a video or screenshot showing your problems ?
rpgwizard : I think you had this bug with the first version, the first version had bugs with config. In later versions these bugs are fixed.
I found a bug : when you don't move an axis at max pos, the character continues moving even if the axis is centered. This bug will be fixed in version 1.31, and pad disabling will be further.

For the guys who got any bug with the GUI, download the debug version in the attachment. Run it, it will display messages when you input a key, tell me what messages has been displayed before crash.

i got same problem as andre, with all version, looks like a problem with the sdl.dll, see screenshot
i go and play a bit with SDL ^^

[NHervé]

XantiX : download the debug version and tell me what messages has been displayed before crash.

ps : it seems there is a bug only with TLB version. I will see that.
Tested it on xp with tlb version, no crash.
It seems the bug is from sdl, else the message would be "modname : megapad.dll" instead of "modname : sdl.dll".
Version 1.3.1 is out.
got the bug with version 0.9.4 and solved it, version 1.3.2 will soon be out.

I have tried all the versions, and everytime I try to configure a button the emulator just crashes.

Same...I think something is wrong with sdl.dll

I debugged it and it crashes on SDL.dll but that could mean an SDL bug or something bad implemented in the pad dll.

download version 1.3.3, bug is really fixed. more details on first post. bug is not from sdl, but from pcsx2.

Bug is indeed fixed, now I can set the buttons properly good job
But now I have another problem, it crashes when emulation starts. I click on run DVD, I see the zerogs screen and when first game image should appear it crashes on MegaPad.dll!10003d3b().

[NHervé]

what is your config ? (pcsx2, plugins, megapad) pc specs ?
what game ? if it is not compatible, that is normal.

have you disabled pad2 or pad1 ? try enabling pad2, or disabling it if enabled.

PS : a linux version will soon be out, I'm downloading Linux.

Tried both and still crashes.

I'm happy you are willing to create a port of your plugin. Linux is very developer friendly but I if you've never used a linux distribution before it'll take some time to get used to it (different programming environments etc).

[NHervé]

finished installing linux, I'm installing gcc and I will soon port my plugin, I replaced PadWndProc by a SDL timer to start.

Wow, you got it up and running fast. Good luck porting it. I'm looking forward to the only plugin that's ever going to support controllers in pcsx2 in Linux.

Wow! What amazing timing! Frustrated with not being able to play due to lack of a controller plugin, I recently tried running the Windows version of PCSX2 through Wine, but no CD/DVD plugins worked (I still got to see Megapad for the first time during this, though... amazing plugin!) so I was still stuck. I thought I was finally out of options, and then you gave this news..! You've made my day! For when you finish, do you happen to have a Paypal account I could donate to in thanks for your efforts?

Hi everybody.
NHervé, i've downloaded the latest plugin and unpacked MegaPad.dll into plugin directory of PCSX2 0.9.4, but there is no MegaPad in the list of pad plugins... Can you help me?

[NHervé]

dragonheart.by : have you put SDL.dll in the PCSX2 Root Folder ?
If you put it in plugins folder, megapad won't work.
PS : I tested it myself, MegaPad works fine with pcsx2 0.9.4.
