An example is with the 8bitdo controllers, there are mismatches on some of the buttons although the axis are fine.

The problem was people kept using it, and usually it isn't needed.\r\n\r\nI would need the es_temporaryinput.cfg file too which contains the full config generated by ES sent to our input configuration tool - and if you know which bits are generated wrong, it will save me time from comparing each config line etc :)"}}
