Can't press multiple buttons

Post by Ludvig41 »

So im playing Megaman X on my mac, and I noticed i couldn't charge a blast, run and jump at the same time.
Im not sure exactly how this "bug" works, but if i run, charge and jump, i wont be able to press any buttons until i let go of all the buttons I'm currently pressing. This makes the game almost unplayable. Is there something i missed in the options or is this intentional?

are you using a gamepad or the keyboard?

If you're playing using a keyboard, keyboards can only accept input from 2-3 keys at one time, unless you have a really nice anti-ghosting keyboard, but it'd be better to just get a gamepad.

What operating system are you using? 32 or 64bit? Version of Snes9x? Is the text at the bottom of the window white when you load the game?
These suggestions are usually the solution to your issue!

I've had this similar problem as well. I use the ds3 tool to use my PlayStation 3 controller(s) for games like street fighter and killer instinct. Everything was fine until I had some windows update thing. After that I can't hit two buttons at once anymore. I can't jump backwards or do anything of special moves. It really makes the game unplayable. Help?
