NeGcon and dualshock4

Unread post by wilfredmerriweathr »

Howdy yall,

I've been having a great time with my mister, but recently it decided that my ps4 controllers are now "negcons". aka this thing:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeGcon

While hilarious, this is also putting a serious damper on my multiplayer experiences so.... anybody got a clue? I'm pretty tech savvy and this one is just totally eluding me. Where the hell do I convince this thing that these are ps4 controllers?

Worked fine for the entire time I've owned my Mister until a couple weeks ago.

Thanks for any help!!

You can set it in the core menu. There you can set which controllers are connected.

You mean in the individual core menu?

Because the mister recognizes my ds4 controllers as negcons no matter what core I'm using. Is there some place within the mister menu itself (not the specific core menu) to set this straight?

How does cores other then the PSX core recognize a controller as a Negcon?

How does cores other then the PSX core recognize a controller as a NegCon? A SNES or Mega Drive core wouldn't know what a NegCon is...
Yes, i mean in the PSX core menu.
