I got mine working as well, the trick, I think was to copy in the ini file (changing the name) and let the config file generate it's own information based on the ini file (device id etc). I did set the number to 0 (full manual) for the controller, but it doesn't seem to matter as it changes back automatically once you launch a mupen64* emulator.

The controller will only work in mupen64 emulators though, so I may still return the adapter for something better. N64 is SOOOO much better with a real N64 controller though.

Not sure why this failed for me the first time, I think by taking in the cfg file I corrupted something.

@mrscruff300 if you update Kodi it will remove the broken repo (no longer needed)

@dragonsparks i found a big name site that sells tons of knockoffs with them.

That's been a problem with a lot of people with that type of controller. Although I can't seem to think there are any ways to fix it, but if someone can, that'd be great.

@meleu Thanks. I am pretty new to this so sorry. I am not sure what occurred because one second everything worked fine the next it stopped. Thanks for helping me out. Not sure why this file would disappear all of a sudden.

@christiang you have to follow the advice on the read-this-first post before asking for support.

We don't know any info about your setup to be able to help you.

Sorted; I realised I was using Retroarch emus, so am going to experiment with this again in the week in the pursuit of absolute Mario nirvana. 🙂

Quick tidy to add @caver01 's latest tip, just the sort of stuff we need, VERY useful!

@regios I fixed the problem by doing the hyperpie 1.01 update kodi text fix. Just download the update and follow the kodi text.

@edmaul69 Yea I just got them and it's working now. I guess I just found some bad copies before, weird coincidence.

@stelario

Have you transferred any ROMs to your Pi. If you have not transferred any ROMs you won't see the emulators. Check out transferring ROMs in the wiki.

@red2blue i believe the overlays are in that thread.

@paulace55 glad you got it sorted

@willreaper neo geo has several possible emulators that they could work on. You might want to try as many as possible to find a working one. I recommend trying lr-fbalpha and lr-fbalpha2012

@catastroph3 could be a couple issues. Are you using wireless 360 controllers? If so the wireless receiver is actually detected as 4 controllers so your other controller is probably detected as controller 5. You can use joystick-selection to change which controllers are used as what in retroarch systems. Is your psx emulator, lr-pcsx-rearmed?
If so if you go into the retroarch gui by pressing select & x. Then go into quick menu then options. Now enable the multitap. Plus you might have to change each controller between standard and analog in there.

@megafacehead @ogbuehi Plug and play! Works great! Thanks for taking the time to chime in and help with that! Really appreciate it!
