And there are the 2600-daptor and 2600-daptor 2. There's a thread with a link to modded RetroPie for a project to support it here, so possibly that work could be integrated into the main RetroPie for the RPi A/B/B+.

@mediamogul Thanks as soon as you mentioned that I went in to prefs and you were right. So I changed it to Unicode (UTF-8)

@RetroFreak89 Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

you have been asked this before - if you want to get help, you need to provide the information requested in that post.

you can change aspect ratio for retroarch emulators from the configuration editor - https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Configuration-Editor

This appears to be fixed...

I updated Retropie setup to 4.1.10 just now, then did an 'install from source' for lr-pcsx-rearmed.

That fixed it! I can set pad 1 to "analog" and keep the rest as "standard" and this is now correctly detected by any games I play.

I'm super confused by this, because it doesn't look like there have been any commits to this core since I filed the bug. Maybe it was a RetroPie bug?

Can anyone else who's been having this problem please try updating your biz and let me know if it fixes it for you too?

@RandoCalrisian sorry. I wish I wish I knew more about the firmware. My IPAC4 device is an older version that uses a PS/2 to USB converter and it does not get recognized as a game pad at all. It's my understanding that this issue affects only the newer versions of these devices. I hate to send people to Andy for support every time, but as far as I know, he has been the only source cited by people who have obtained the replacement firmware. However, perhaps he has now incorporated it into the utility available online.

lr-mess won't work on Raspbian due to old gcc so we don't have a working mess currently for Raspbian.

@videofx From the output you've given, it looks like your PS3 controller is not being picked up. There should be an entry with a line similar to N: Name="Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller".

Try running cat /proc/bus/input/devices without running an Intellivision rom to see if the PS3 controller appears in the output. I presume you have it connected by USB? You may need to press the PS button to bring it out of its stale state.

Hi Graboid, sorry for such a delay in getting back! First chance I have had to have a proper look at this. I have followed your steps and I am 100% wired up according to your wiring diagram. I add the usb quirks line and reboot. On rebooting, none of the buttons work at all. I have tried pushing select and x together (as well as every other combination of two buttons) and cannot access the retroarch gui. I tried hitting f1 on the keyboard too and this won't do anything either so I can't see any way of accessing the retroarch gui to even see whether it now sees it as two controllers. However Lstest does show it as two controllers...

any ideas? really appreciate your help and hopefully I can get this running! I am using a pi 3 and retropie v 4.1 (have tried older versions too). What are you using and what version of retropie are you using?

@Aksen I forgot I already made a date file for neogeo only for the latest lr-fba in this thread here

This data file is also on the wiki page.

hey mate, i'm stupid.
i wiring alla exactly buttons and joy of player 1 in player 1 side of xin mo.
and player 2 in p0 side of xin-mo.
i unmount all wirings, and so, i after swap all wiring:
so
player 1wired to p0 side
player 2wiredto p1 side

joystick of player 1 and 2 in up and down movements WORKS,
select and start of p1are swapped after mapping and reboot,
select and start of p2the same swapped after mapping and reboot,

i can fix this about swapping select and start of player1?

here my cmdline.txt

@buzzyc some hubs work right and some dont. I did a gameboy zero with an all in one-ish board and the usb hub built on the board reads the built in on board controller fine and the usb reads my wireless mini usb/trackball mouse. But it wont recognize my wireless n adapter and my full size keyboard crashes it. But in my arcade block mini genesis usb hub and the rockband hub i can run everything just fine. Mostly. On my rockband hubs if i have to set up wifi i need to remove everything but the wifi and the keyboard otherwise it takes like thirty tries to get the pi zero to accept the wifi key. Havent tested that on my genesis usb hub

@mrbwa1 said in MAME roms not all working:

One of these days I will go back throug and build out a rom set with only the roms I need

That's what makes a non-merged sets so nice. It's one game per zip archive with nothing extra added. I built a non-merge set for every set related to RetroPie MAME and keep it so I can quickly reference any particular game. Waste of space but oh so convenient.

but first I have to play through and see what I want!

I feel for you here! It's a rough evening playing through to sort games. ;)

@BuZz Sure,

PSU: 5v 2.5amp
Emulator: Mupen64plus-GlideN64
Pi: 3 B
Retropie ver. 4.1

updated emulator from source

USB Devices connected: Keyboard
Controller used: Wii U Pro Controller Bluetooth

Oh man...

I'd love an answer to this. I have two Wii U Pros and things just don't work right when I attempt use them both.

They are both registered devices via the onboard BT. As you said, they both show as being player 1 on each controller.

The wife and I get lots of crashing, random button presses, and even phantom rumbles from the unused controller when it is just sitting there. My solution has been to just disconnect one and not use it. But, that sucks.

I'd love to be able to use two Wii U Pros at the same time....

Thanks.

@BuZz , well I did not succeed installing lr-prboom or zdoom using the retropie-setup. Debugging was a bit hard, because I could not see the error message: after failure the retropie-setup reappears. So I suppose the error in the retropie-setup was the same as in my first command line attempt.
Are there any known issues regarding the install of these ports via retropie-setup anyway?

@NecroCorey When you go directly to it that way, it can sometime rebuild the master browser tables.

To be honest, Network Neighborhood has always been flaky (especially in the Windows 98 and XP days) so I always just type in the name directly.

I despise the backslashes since everything else in the world uses forward slashes. I think it was just baked into Microsoft stuff for so long that once the WWW appeared, it was too late to change things.

If you want, once you are connect to the pi, you can click on the little icon to the left of the address bar and drag it to the desktop to create a permanent link to "\retropie" (or once you see it in network again, click and drag to make a desktop shortcut). That might save future hassles.

EDIT: You are welcome for the help. My programming skills aren't good enough to contribute to Retropie, but I have years of tech support experience, so I just try to help out where I can.
