lol. *you* set the controls to whatever you want. in the input plugin config, you press the square button next to the control, then you press the key on your pad OR keyboard that you want to use for that control. repeat for each control.
it's an emulator, it's configurable. and it works with pretty much any type of input.. please read the manual aswell.

Then perhaps you should learn how the actual GAME controls are? ;)
If you want to use like a single button for a move, look for macros!

that's what i mean, i dont even know what the initial control layout is, i just used my ps2 from the start, but before that i used the keyboard, and still didnt know what the button is

Ok this will drive me insane until it is resolved.

This is the N64 controller layout. "R" is a button on the controller. "C down" is another button (yellow). It is so called because it is the bottom of the 4 yellow C-buttons.

Now look on your input configuration again. There is a section on the right called "C-buttons" with 4 buttons to configure: U, D, L, R. You want D for down.

Right now your R = Joypad 5
and C-down = Z+

If those keys don't make sense to you, configure them again. Get it?

I been using a Logitech Rumblepad 2. So far no problems. As to USB problems, I have not seen any. I even plug mine into a USB hub. I like how force feedback is built in. I say in my opinion, Logitech is a good choice. As stated before, get the good ones and not the cheepo. PCGAMER reviewed it and gave it editor's choice. Give it a try and see if you like it.

I use the Logitech Rumblepad 2
+ IMO Best PC Gamepad/controller available
- "Z"-button missing
- Analog sticks are not rounded
- 4 main buttons, some old consoles had 6

I have a xbox plugin and have no problems after having multiple profiles for different games, becuase of the c buttons and 1 less trigger... Not that the left trigger is used much anyway.

I've been using a Logitech cordless rumblepad 2, I don't have any problems with it either.
Before i bought the logitech I tried some cheap pads but I just didn't like them :)

I use the Saitek P880 for NES, SNES, Genesis, N64, and GB/GBA emulation.

I have one of those as well. It's been through hell though. Surprisingly enough, super glue worked like a charm to fix this problem.

This is from long hours of playing ssb with pj64k. Super glue fixed this as well, I glued the broken off rubber part directly to the backside of the button to keep it in place.

I recently picked up this NEW n64 controller by pelican. Look at the joystick well, it's not as deep as a traditional pad. If you look even closer you can tell that is is made like more modern joysticks! This joystick will break before it wears out :p. It's actually too springy for certain games though. It takes a bit of effort to move it from the neutral postion, so the effort you put into moving it out of the neutral center makes you overdue it for small precise movements ( aiming in GE ). It's great for SSB though.

i recommend the gravis gamepad pro. It is like a psx controller (without an analog stick) but i can play games and emulators very fine. :)
I have one of these as well. I thought they were ok until I moved onto something better. The digital pad on these things are horribly inaccurate. I blew myself up so many times playing Super Bomberman on Snes with it :yucky:

Get a BIG xbox controller and a usb cord (not a small one), mod it for a pc controller,
get the xbcd drivers
and then set it to
a=a
b=x
cd=b
cl=y
cr=bl
cu=wh
r=right trigger
z=left trigger
l=click left
analog=left thumbstick
pad=pad
start=start

In most cases, this will be perfect, and with n-rages controller plugin, you can even get it to rumble
more information on modding
and xbcd driver info here
This is what I use.

You can actually use a Type S XBOX Pad as well, I have one here thats modded for USB and I use the XBCD drivers as well. I also have an EMS 2 PS2 Dual Control USB Adapter, and a BOOM N64/PSX Adapter, a flightstick, and 2, 8 button arcade pads for my PC.

Yes i guess you could use an s controller but it wouldn't have the same setup since the wh+bl buttons are on the bottom of the other ones
That's what i used to use

Saitek DualShock Analog controller with force-feedback! Only about $24 at Wal-Mart! They're REALLY heavy-duty. I've had mine for years and it's the most comfortable and durable pc controller I've ever used.

As the previous poster said, the ps2 layout with two analog sticks and four shoulder buttons. I use a NYKO AIRFLO EX. I mapped it like a GCN controller, L2 and R2 function as the N64's L and R, R1 functions as Z, and of course the right stick is for the c-buttons.

EDIT: I was a little late in saying "previous poster".......try like an entire page back XD

EDIT: at least 3.5 pages...........
