program refuses to show more than two controllers at a time #31

staticanimal commented 1 year ago

i am trying to use a pro controller and two joy-cons with this program and can not get more than two of the three to show up in slimevr wrangler, no matter how much time i spend dis- and reconnecting the controllers. every controller is connecting fine to my computer and even with all three connected simultaneously they are all fully functional and usable. in fact, i've tested a fourth controller and noticed not even the slightest drop in functionality for any single one of them. this is immensely irritating, especially with it being the only tool of its kind and no functional solutions around.

i would like to reiterate: my setup is completely functional. the aforementioned issues i am experiencing are exclusively on the program's end.

Hi. This is probably due to your Bluetooth adapter, some only support two controllers.

Also, support questions should go to the discord: https://discord.gg/slimevr (#joycons channel)

this is not a support question. this is an issue with the software. it would only make sense for it to be posted here.

additionally: after further testing i was able to get all three controllers to show up in the software, fully functional as well. this is a software issue that requires looking into.

again, highly unlikely to be a hardware issue.

It works for up to 6-7 devices for everyone with a high end Bluetooth adapter. I'm sorry to hear your adapter has issues, but this is a common question in the support discord. There are other windows Bluetooth issues that could also cause this, and the steps to try to make windows behave is in the readme and several "fixes" are on the discord.
