Two keyboard controllers

Would it be possible to have two keyboards (2 players) connected and play on one computer?

I'm not sure that Live has ever supported two keyboards but if you've got two keyboards it's worth a try. The worst that will happen is that you'll run the game and it won't recognise the second keyboard.

Back when I was still messing around w/ppjoy in Live 07, and actually thought you could play the game w/a keyboard, I tried two keyboards at the same time. I can’t remember how I did it, but got two keyboards to show up at the pick-a-team screen and assigned them both to the away team. It did not work great; the players share the same buttons, so a lot of the time you would be controlling two players at once, such that one will be driving toward the basket and the second will be running senseless around the court.

I believe that even if I had chosen to have one of the two showing keyboards go to a home team and the second to the away team, and even with some controller configuring changes, there would, in all likelihood still be some key sharing.

Tered is the one who posts from the same IP address as you, or if you have a router, he must post on another cpu connected to the router. I guessed it might be your brother or something, since you want to use 2 people on the same computer. That's why I asked, because your not allowed to have more then one account.

Tered should be my cousin that lives in my place then.

Good answer.
But I haven't tried it.
Always been using Keyboard. Playing with my troops in cafe with 2 PC so no chance of playing with 2 keyboards in 1 PC.

If you can make them work, post it here how you did it.
