Problem with Genesis, 32X and Sega CD controls on fusion emulator

Some of you guys probably know about the fusion emulator, which is a emulator for every Sega system preceding the Sega Saturn. Anyway, I am having problems with the Genesis controls. I define the 3 button or 6 button controller, but when i try to load the game it thinks i am already pressing buttons without me touching anything (it starts juttering the start button on and off for example) I know that neither my keyboard is broken nor my joypad is broken because I have tried both the Master system roms through fusion which work perfectly and i have tried disconnecting my joypad but the problem is still persisting. I also know the roms themselves are not at fault because I have tried several genesis and 32x games yet the juttering pause and start button presses persist. Does this issue sound familiar to anyone that has used the Fusion emulator? If so what is the solution?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

This is actually a very common problem. It depends on the joystick you are using. Sometimes it detect button and sometimes analogs sticks. If you can not find a way to settle the random pressing you must do it manually. Looks at the ini under the

;---------------------------------
; General Settings
;---------------------------------

for example

Player1Buttons=34,35,32,33,1,2,0,9,48,49,10,8,8,9, 10,11

each number is a button, I'm pretty sure these are in order as asked on the emulator but not 100% on that.

ok i found the settings you are referring to. How should i alter it?

it's a guessing game but I will tell you the bigger numbers are analogs. For example the first 4 of my above example are stick moments. then you see it goes to HID numbers (1,2,0,9,) button 1 2 0 and 9 on the joystick. If the emulator lets you press any buttons it will help find out what buttons are what numbers. If you can not get the emulator to do anything because it just reads one button, then you have to figure this out one button at a time. If you have more then one joystick and its the same kind, you can copy the number to another player.

The difficulty is that when I load a Genesis or 32X game, the juttering start button starts off the bat, whether or not there is a controller attached to the computer.

So this only happens when you load a game? So you can config the controller ok before you load a game? and its only 32x?

The problem happens when I load a Genesis, 32X or Sega CD game.

Master System and Game Gear seems to work fine.

Ok then the problem is so obvious it will make you laugh. Go back to the config menu, you will see the ge/32/cd config is one top and the MS/GG is on bottom. Now you still didnt answer my question.

"So you can config the controller ok before you load a game? "
- so maybe you have two problems? You must configure both of them. If you can not get the buttons to map right you need to do what I suggested above.

I am aware that the GE/32X/CD and MS/GG are on the config screen. I tried defining these at the same time, but the problem with the genesis games is still persisting. It allows me to define the controllers, but for some reason it is only working without any fault for MS/GG.

It is less than obvious to me how i am supposed to apply your above solution, since for one thing the start button function is pressing, regardless of whether or not i have actual controller attached.

during mapping or in game?

still sounds like the mapping failed.

Start by posting your "General Settings" ini code in here and ill have a look.
