mudkipzjm Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Hoi/Hi/Hola/etc. I recently got a Xbox 1 controller for Christmas, and I wanted to start using it to improve my dual logging. The only thing that's stopping me is getting two clients to stay active. When I click on one client, the other loses focus. I don't know if there's a way to fix this or if i'm just screwed. Any help would be appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK-201 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Do you open both clients after you plug gamepad in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyrewolf5 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 That is normal. Only one client is ever "in focus". The trick is that a controller can still control any client regardless of whether it is in focus or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyrewolf5 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I have an xbone controller too, and I can control my character even if the window is not selected. You are using the built in pso controller input to control the inactive window, and not trying to use something like xpadder which would require focus, right?

Yes, I'm using the built PSO controller input. When I go switch to another window, nothing happens to the inactive one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudkipzjm Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 Would it make a difference whether it was plugged in or using Bluetooth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soly Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 As you were told and just to clarify, you cannot have 2 windows focused at once, that's not pso, that's Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudkipzjm Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 Ah, but yea, I guess the problem is now is that my controller won't work for the window that isn't focused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
