After a few days of testing I have managed to create my favorites folder, where I can run the roms that I like the most. Many thanks for your tutorial Dudleydes is fantastic.
Regards and thank you all

Not a problem. As mentioned above, if you still have any questions after reading the documentation, get back with us.

Could you recommend a good & cheap HDMI Touchscreen which works for RetroPie?
from 3.5inch up to 5inch would be nice (with Case).

Thanks in advance!"

I have a pi3 and the retropi setup screen says VER 4.1.10 at the top.

I was able to save image, emulationstation now works. Did want to mention that I thinks still buggy though. If this helps: Went to Raspi-config from menu, locked up now. Cannot navigate with keyboard. Also, you only get 1 shot to go into n64 configuration menu using "x" to enter. After the once it will not work, and got to work again by completely shutting down system.

I think the 2 are tied together, and somehow keyboard is not being registered. Hope this helps you all and thanks for your help!

@markg said in xboxdrv works in FE / shell but not emulator:

Is there a different place I should put this to make it more permanent?

This setting can be hardcoded in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg. The entry you're looking for is:

input_player1_joypad_index = "x"

Something else that comes to mind and is completely untested by myself is that this setting could be altered alongside xboxdrv launching, so as to accommodate individual mappings and controllers on-the-fly. Try at your own risk, but something like this might work well:

sed -i 's/input_player1_joypad_index = "*"/input_player1_joypad_index = "1"/g' /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

@messyraverbaby exactly what @buzz said. You have to press fire on joystick. I have both joysticks programmed to the same controller but i did seperate fire buttons (allows you to play two button games properly) but i had to go into machine settings-->joystick settings-->swap joysticks. You can also put the swap joystick to a button but i forgot where i found that setting

@Melvin.FoX The link i provided refers to changes you can make in the boot.txt file. 😉

How fast is your network, and how many people use it?

@Retro666 you need to learn C++ and recode emulationstation to accomplish what you are trying to do.

@Gaara4 delete the file and reinstall the emulator.

Having started this thread I'll speak up again, because I don't think I managed to ever get the O2 change (though I did get the Genesis change just fine).

So there's technically two files in two different locations where this kind of thing can be changed, and the preferred location is in /etc/emulationstation, and in the other location mentioned, that cfg file can be safety removed / deleted?

I'll have to revisit this :)

@Hungry-Gorilla btw I'm on Retropie 4.1

Thanks. :)

@TheSwedenGuy When you configure input in emulationstation, it automatically create the retroarch-joypads/YOUR_JOYPAD_NAME.cfg file. Try to configure your joypad input in emulationstation again and look if the "retroarch-joypads" file will be created.
