I can't make out how to switch a savestate by 1, not by 2. When I push F2 for example, I jump from savestate 2 straight to savestate 4.
I've got:
savestate 3
savestate 4
on the screen. so it's 0-2-4-6-8-0 and so on. Somehow I saved my game in slot 5 (once when I pushed F2 it jumped only 1 slot up, but then continued doing +2). I understand I can just rename the files. But I also have this stuff with F4 - FPS skipping, which I use. It jumps from option for example 2 to option 4 and then back to 2(cuz there are only 4 options). How to solve this bug?

These messages are processed and passed to PCSX2 by the pad plugin. If you're using one pad plugin for pad 2, and another for pad 1, that's the problem. Both are listening to keyboard messages and passing them on independently.

Not really a bug, more a deficiency in the plugin specs. You have two things listening to the keyboard that don't know that the other is listening to the keyboard as well. They know they're not the plugin for both pads, but the other could only be listening to a gamepad or something.

I never tried that; my previous keyboard had the same problem, but not anymore on the current one. So, I'm not sure if the keyboard driver also contributes to the problem.

I think that is different from game to game. For instance, on the same setup, FFX only "uses" one savestate, it doesnt "jump", and in the memory we can have 100 saves, and FFXII it "jumps" and we can only have 50 saves on the memory card.

Just a guess.

Prob must be with driver or hardware. Or because of (vu)skipping. On my rig, FF X and FF XII jump from one sstate to another, one by one. And number of saves on the memcards depends on number of blocks <clusters?> used to store settings/stats/everything in one save. And FF XII is much more complex than FF X, that's for sure.

I'm not talking about memcard, guys - it's the emulator's save/load function I'm talking about - no 100 saves there - only 10 savestates, and in my situation I can use only 5. And yes, I have set 2 diff plugins for pad 1 and pad 2. I'll try to change that and then report. AND I also use not Logitech but Defender wireless keyboard (wich also goes with mouse but I use another one).

UPD, thank you, Fadingz, the issue was because I had 2 diff joypad plugins in plugin setup. Onse I set both to SSSPSX the problem was no more. Thanks!
