Ok did that, the controls work fine if I just boot zsnes, but when I boot zsnes through game ex controls get me the same fits! Thanks for the advice! I was looking through the log file (having a problem updating MAME game list, keeps freezing up after 25% but found a thread for that problem) and I see "unable to create a joystick device" in the log just before game ex starts, could this have anything to with the problem I am having? Please excuse the mis-spelling and incorrect grammar, I'm using a I pad with auto fill.

It is detecting key presses but, when I play a one player game (ie Mario kart) "a" is set to one controller set and "b" is on another and the rest of player One buttons are spread out between all 4 controller set ups.

Maybe this has been asked before, but I could not find the answer in the forums so I am, possibly going to ask again. I got a 4 player joystick set up for the system I built. When I run zsnes, the controls weren't working properly, I went straight to the emulator it self and changed the controller settings there but to no avail. Currently I have to play a one player Game between two joysticks (I know they are all programmed for keystrokes currently), how can I get each controller to work on it's own with zsnes and other emulators? Thanks in advance, Pat P.s. I got the joysticks and buttons wired through a ipac4 control board to a USB hooked into my pc, again thanks for the advice.
