So bought a pack of 4 controllers off from amazon and I'm of course running into the trouble that the computer does not register the devices in the same order everytime
So I need to set it up as a stable controller.
Looking into it I've looked at my controllers from doing a verbose start
Input: Adding joystick #0: Generic USB Joystick (device id: Generic USB Joystick product_00060079-0000-0000-0000-504944564944 instance_27bd7f40-a85c-11eb-8001-444553540000) Input: Adding joystick #1: Generic USB Joystick (device id: Generic USB Joystick product_00060079-0000-0000-0000-504944564944 instance_27bdcd60-a85c-11eb-8002-444553540000) Input: Adding joystick #2: Generic USB Joystick (device id: Generic USB Joystick product_00060079-0000-0000-0000-504944564944 instance_27bdcd60-a85c-11eb-8003-444553540000) Input: Adding joystick #3: Generic USB Joystick (device id: Generic USB Joystick product_00060079-0000-0000-0000-504944564944 instance_27c0daa0-a85c-11eb-8008-444553540000)
Which I gather would lead to this CFG file...

Except I keep getting a fatal error whenever I try to run my new config file.
I'm totally lost here on what I should do. Any advice or idea why it is giving me a fatal error on this config file?
