Description

My Controllers (xbox 360 and Xbox one) with RetroArch works great on the menu and it works great in both the Mupen64Plus core as well as the ParaLLel N64 core when I am playing single player.

As soon as I go to the main menu and choose “Start netplay Host” then the hat/analog control doesn’t work! I can use the directional pad and all the buttons but not the hat. Once I go back into the main menu and then click “Stop netplay host,” the controller is working totally fine in the game.

Retroarch 1.9.6
windows 10

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report in RetroArch 1.9.6 on Windows 10 with an Xbox 360 or Xbox One controller, comparing normal gameplay with Start netplay Host enabled in the Mupen64Plus and ParaLLel N64 cores. Investigate the netplay host path and controller input handling; done means hat/analog input works during netplay while directional and button inputs remain functional.
