Still is copying every single button press even dpad. Double checked both version are 4.2. Have it blocked in firewall. Have Enable gamepad both checked on both instances. Anything you can think of I'm doing wrong?

You need to uncheck Always Enable Gamepad in the launcher profile config if you are using an XInput device such as an Xbox Controller.

Even tried running a 4.3 and a 4.2. They still copy inputs. Think I'm going to throw the towel in until it gets fixed unless someone else has a idea why the "fix" is not working for me.

So have that turned off in ffxi config and use 4.2 and it should work?

When using 4.3 on both instances. When I have player 1 in active it will control player 2 and vice versa. So that's working but backwards which doesn't help me but maybe that is a clue to something?

So I'm using 4.3 on both. Have both unchecked gamepad enable and the above is happening.

Is there anyway to get a version of dev windower that was working last night?

Also unplugging controller and plugging it back in then makes it dual input again. Until I switch characters then it does the control the unactive window player.

Another update.

I can get 4.3 to work IF I open cmd in windower and type minimize. Then tab to player 1 and it will only control player 1 then.

Once I tab to player 2 and start doing stuff there. It start doing the reverse control bug again.

I play on borderless window setting on both players. Maybe it is getting confused as to which player is "active". I can try making player 2 a window'd type with another resolution and see if that works.

Working now. Solution was to change from borderless to border window on both players.

Maybe because windows XP isn't supported by hardly anyone? I know windows can be expensive but it's worth it.

I feel your pain, but I guess it's time for us to move on. I hate to have to get a new pc and new controller just for this game to run the same as it did on the xp system with xbox 360 controller. But beggars can't be choosers. It wouldn't feel so tedious if I had any kind of other reason to need something higher than xp. Ah well

Brutalforce Here is what I did.

Use 4.3 most current version.
Have border option enabled on both instances.
player 1 resolution is different then player 2.
Make sure enable gamepad is checked to ON.

Now with my script running. Dual input bug stopped working. I don't like having this setup but it works for now so F it.

Yea it says 4.0 on website but each time you open windower it auto updates with the version they put live.

Weird I had to make sure that was checked for mine to work XD.

There's a new option in the Windower launcher, maybe that's resetting it. It's under Edit (pencil icon) -> Game -> Always Enable Gamepad.
Ah, thanks. I figured it was in there after it reset, but I didn't want to touch anything else until it stops working again.

Unrelated, ffxicaddieprovider hasn't worked since Thursday for me. Errors on load with a runtime error:
Code
socket.lua:29: attempt to call field 'getaddrinfo' (a nil value)


Edit: I'm using Live only.

I don't know if this is related to the 4.3 update but since i got it down my Right ALT key + J will not bring up my job abilities but the right AlT key works fine with ATL + E and ALT H etc, If i hold the right ALT down it brings up the macro pallet and J works fine so i don't know why the combo to bring up job abilities is not working like it always did before 4.3.

had that since i first dl'ed windower. That camera gets unltra sensitive. My screen is spinning the majority of the time im not active. And i have to go back to the window, click in it then place cursor on window OS toolbar at bottome, use arrow to stop the screen from spinning. Then go to a different window being carfull not to have my cursor touch the windower screen again otherwise it stars spinning again. .. Gotten a bit used to it tho'
OK, I think I see what is happening now. The second character I logged into had Screen Edge Panning turned on in Config->Mouse/Camera. Once I turned that off, the problem went away. I think when focus changed, FFXI was confused as to the position of the mouse pointer and started spinning the camera even when the pointer was within the bounds of its window. After returning to the window, tapping a direction key made it update and it "realized" the camera should not be spinning, so it stopped. Turning off Screen Edge Panning seems to have eliminated the spinning problem for me, so that's a workaround, assuming you don't make use of Screen Edge Panning.

wow... that was so overwhelmingly simple. Kind of saddened that i never thought to look there. It only showed up when i started using windower so i figured it was just a side effect of that. - Now to see if it will stay this way next time i log in.

I have two identical PCs running win 10 with out the creator update and the up to date version of windower, non dev build. One PC has a PS4 controller and the other an xbox one controller.

After the updates to windower, switchmon stopping working for the xbox one controller. The PS4 controller works fine with switchmon.

As a work around, I switched to xpadder. Makes it playable but not near as streamlined as switchmon. Also seem slower with xpadder but whatever, it's working.
http://xpadder.com/

Maybe when all the bugs are worked out here someone can take a look at switchmon :)

I just deleted xinputdll.dll in ff11 folder and it solved all my gamepad bug.
