RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): retropie 4.7.1

Try to update the latest version (4.7.12) and update your OS/packages also (the installer will prompt you to do so). Then reboot and install the xpadneo driver before trying to pair again via Bluetooth.

@mitu Excellent thanks!

@tamperedmedia i think I fixed it . Double checked all of my wires and ,while identical, select and start weren't connected in the right spots on the encoder. Once wired correctly I set both bindings in retroarch without bothering to set player 2 on the retro pie home screen. It still inverts up and down for player 2 on the main menu but it seems to work properly in game so it'll work as it is.

Hopefully it won't break again, appreciate the help.

@mitu

I need this Board to put it into a small formfactor 3d-printed AES Case and run Retropie with only Neo Geo Games. This board has all the connections i need at one side. it´s perfect.

@mitu Sorry for the late reply. I messed around with my TV screen settings and fixed it that way. Thank you again for your support!

@alturis said in RetroPie 4.7.1: Trouble getting custom_viewport_... settings to work:

Are you suggesting I fix that myself in the github project?

The file is from the upstream Retroarch's repository - you can submit a PR there to have it fixed.

@mitu I had a look at the configuration/tool menu and found an option over there to generate the steam list of games. Thank you so much!

@gabbo999 said in Retroarch input setting problem:

I have a Raspberry pi4 with obviously retropie installed, I finished today to build my cabinet and I wanted to set all the right buttons for each emulator.

Please add the complete info, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

In N64 emulator i went in the Retroarch quick menu and i noticed that in port 1 controls B button and Y button are both button 3, same A and X both button 1... (see photo attached)

Actually, the B/Y buttons are not mapped at all - the right side (which shows the emulated system's mapping) is empty. How did you configure the gamepad ?

Try updating RetroPie and the OS/packages to the latest version and re-try the pairing via Bluetooth.

@chaoseffect I was using an official BIOS. After switching to the HLE bios, it now loads. Thank you so much!

Ah cool I see it works with themes too. Ah well. ;)

@ronson It should work. I've done that myself. Try following these steps: https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroPie/comments/f04z8l/how_to_add_lrflycast_as_an_arcade_emulator/

Hello,

Thanks for pushing me to try from the ground, using a fresh/official/empty image.
I've installed the retropie-buster-4.7.1-rpi2_3.img available on your download page here, add the rom and... no more controls issue! :-) Damn! I spent days on this issue... and it was so easy :-)
Long live to Retropie :-)

Well, I got the same idea. My objective was to start a mame game (Star Wars) automatically.

After spending some time to set up this, I wanted to share the solution to complete the explanation available of the Retropie FAQ.

So here's the content of my autostart.sh file :

pi@nunopi:/opt/retropie/configs/all $ more autostart.sh /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ "mame-libretro" "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/starwars.zip"

It works as expected! Quite easy with an example now :-)

@mitu I updated when I saw your message here, 5 minutes before I posted my reply here. It took a while updating, but my controller doesn't work neither in my PC or raspberry :/
