Can't get 2nd controller to work for Dolphin in 5.25

Eric441

Hi guys. I really hope someone can help.
I can't get my 2nd controller to work in Dolphin (Gamecube or Wii) since updating to 5.25. 2 player works fine for all other systems.

I had no issues with this in 5.24

I've gone into the Dolphin emulator settings through F1. In Controller Settings, I can see in Port 2 it says the device is disconnected. I just can't work out why, or how to fix.

If one of you could help I would really appreciate it.

(I'm using 8bitdo SF30 controllers and had no issue with 5.24)

Eric441 Do you have only 2 controllers connected at the time or more than 2? I've noticed in GC/Wii games that when I have all 4 controllers connected that controller 4 is actually player 1 and controller 1 is actually player 2.

I have no issues with my two 8bitdo controllers (one 8bitdo SFC30 and one 8bitdo DIY Kit for SNES controller) with Gamecube in 5.25.
Did you try to remap your controllers?
And which mode do you use for your controllers?
I started my controllers in Switch Mode (Start + Y)

Only issue i have with my 8bitdo controllers (SFC30 and DIY Kit for SNES controller) that do not have additional buttons that could be used as Hotkey is, that i can not exit emulators by pressing Select (which is Hotkey) + Start. All other Hotkey-combinations (Fast Forward/Rewind, Save/Load State, enter RetroArch QuickMenu etc.) is working. Only exit emulator/game does not work.

After i tested with my 2 8bitdo controllers i also connected 2 PS3 controllers.
For me in Gamecube the order of the controller was then as follow:

Player = 8bitdo dyi kit SNES (was the first Controller i had paired/connected)
Player = 8bitdo SFC30 (was the second Controller i had paried/connected)
Player = PS3 controller with fourth LED lightning (because it was the fourth controller i had connected)
Player = PS3 controller with third LED lightning (because it was the third controller i had connected)
