Sega Genesis Controller issue

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I tried loading any Sega Genesis game and controllers reset when you first load 
up emulator then select rom. This does not happen with the other consoles, 
joysticks load normally.

I tried deleting config.ini and start from scratch. It works normally the first 
time you set it up. But when you exit emulator and restart it.....controllers 
work as normal for other systems except Genesis. It gives invalid controller 
error.

I don't understand what you are saying by "controllers reset when you first 
load up emulator then select rom", try being more precise and describing 
exactly what happened

Ok, my mistake, i see where the bug comes from.
Input systems are only initialized properly when default settings are restored 
(i.e when config.ini is not found or file version does not match). After that, 
each time the emu is restarted, input systems are set to zero which means "no 
device" and you need to set them manually through controller settings.

Time for quick bugfix version bump i guess :-/
