Gimx crashes after a maximum of 5 consoles

[elroy87]

Hi there,

I have tried to use 7 consoles on 1 computer. All controllers, dongles detected. When I am using Console 1-5 and try to open Console 6 I only get an error message. If I close Console 5 and open Console 6 (1,2,3,4,6 running) then it's working. It is clear that there is a limit of 5 consoles. What can I do to run more than 5 consoles?

Hi,

Please update GIMX to the latest version and report the result.

Updated to the latest version!

after 5 consoles: no dualshock 4 controller was found on usb ports -> there are all controllers connected though as I said, there is a gimx limit of 5 accounts, I can change the consoles and all are working but there is a limit of 5 using consoles at the same time

This log file is different and shows an error that is related to the adapter.

There shouldn't be an error which is related to the adapter. The device manager shows me all 8 controllers. I tested it on a second pc, all is working fine until you want to start a sixth console!

Could you please make a log for all gimx instances?

[elroy87]

Sure! As you can see in the logs all controllers were detected!

Do you have any news for me?

Sadly I don't have enough DS4 controllers to investigate this issue. I might be wrong, but I don't think this is a bug on the GIMX software side.

Something to try is to combine several GIMX instances into a single one. For example: gimx -s 127.0.0.1:51914 -p COM24 -s 127.0.0.1:51917 -p COM4
