Disable Gamepad Input

I searched FFXIAHs forums, Guthub and google for quite a bit before making this thread. I'm trying to play multiple games. Both games keep getting effected by the gamepad input even when the FFXI window is inactive. I'm trying to figure out a way to disable gamepad input on inactive windows.

Anyone have any idea how to do this? Any help will be appreciated.

best thing you can do is open to instances of FFXI, then close the other so that when you change focus the controller no longer works.

I have wanted a plugin or a command for so long, but I guess they never saw the point.

Going to give this a try now. Hopefully I can pull off this trick with just a POL account. I only have 1 account with active characters on it.

Edit: Hmm I sort of figured out a way. Start up the second POL account. Unplug and put it into a second USB port. POL detects the new controller. FFXI isnt affected by the game unless it's active. Have to keep doing it through. 2 easy access points though. Works for me. Thanks a bunch!

Gonna get annoying when actually playing both games at the same time though. Constantly having to swap. lol Oh well. I'll keep searching around.

get another controller?
