Gamepads' attribution to windows #42

Hello Lucas,

Glad to see that this project is still going.

Seeing as Christmas is approaching, the time for an extended-family-wide LAN party, and this calls for Nucleus Coop.

Problem is, the gamepads are still hard to associate to specific windows. With the Alpha 6, Borderlands 2 (Steam version, up to date), a kb+m and 3 XBOX 360 gamepads... Well, the program pretty much still behaves the way it did last year : that is to say, the keyboard always gets its own window but as far as gamepads go, there's always one that fucks up and controls nothing. At the very least, one gamepad will control 2 windows, sometimes all three.

Also, by the way, nice touch with the multi screen ability. That'll come in handy.

Thanks for your time, and good luck with this.

On the nucleuscoop.exe you have to wait for all the screen to be on the main menu (when you see the logo of the game) then you have to use the first player controller first, then the second, then the third etc... Or it is the other way : the last player controller to the first player controller. Personally I still play on the the splitool.exe so I can't remember well how it's working on the nucleuscoop tool.

Okay, so now that you've explained it, it works. But only backwards: the last controller must be the first one to be pressed. Why wouldn't it work the other way around as well?

Don't ask me, i'm just a guy who want to enjoy this tool like everyone else and if I know something that the other don't because of hours of testing with my friends... I try to help ;)

I know it is unlikely you will see this, but where is any download for splitplay? I cant find anything but the codeplex link, and all the downloads there are broken
