@WadeBrody It means a PC as opposed to a single board computer like a Pi. x86 referring to the 8086 processors introduced by Intel years ago.

Many thanks for your advice!

Hi,

thats correct. Im not too sure about the SNES Emu. Im using the default.
And yes, im not able to exit the SNES emu.
Ive tried it with PS1/NES/etc. all are working fine but SNES.

To leave the Emulater/Game i have to reset the pi.

If needed ill be checking for the emulator of course!

Thanks in advance

I've just got everything working again from a fresh RetroPie 4 image. I've no idea why the fba games didn't run before but all I did differently this time was not copy the contents of my fba config file as mentioned above. That probably was the cause.

I've given up and gone to windows

Thank you. I wasn't aware of Sselphs scraper until now and just used the built-in ones which...weren't great.

In any case, I think I feel confident enough to be able to maintain my tweaks when setting up a new retropie image. Thanks to you both.

2U is a common fake clone controller. It sounds like the Shanwan PS3 clone controller, they do the same thing.

If the controller has PS3-like wireless, you can set it up using the setup script. Try the Shanwan option in the PS3 controller menu.

If the controller does not have wireless, open it with a screwdriver and disconnect the vibration motor.

Recalbox dudes report they couldn't get this working no matter what: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/issues/394

You might have to just buy a better controller. Sometimes cheap stuff works OK (like those $5 SNES controllers) but evidently not this time.

oh, ok thx

These links should help:

http://openmsx.org/manual/user.html#tape

Just make sure you're running authentic MSX1/2 BIOS files, as the included BIOS doesn't support disks and tapes.

Buzz once again you were right. Changed the bloody Kingston with a SanDisk and workd like a charm

SOLVED

@k0st1x delete what is in your /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/ and configure the joysticks in emulationstation again.

For the emu specific mappings it's better to use this method:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroArch-Configuration#core-input-remapping

this might be relevent: https://github.com/tasanakorn/rpi-fbcp/issues/5

(rpi 0 is rpi 1 to all intents and purposes)

okay, so i went inside and removed the USB hub and tried running straight to the adapter to the zero and still get the same issue. Controller vibrates and no lights.

if you use the arcade folder i think it's either in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/cfg/ or /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/nvram/ - probably the former if it was set via the MAME ui.

but, to avoid doubt i would back up everything in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/, as you probably want the stuff in the other folders anyway.

@herb_fargus I am aware, thanks. Also autostart.

@BuZz thank you

@meleu said in Remapping hotkeys from keyboard to joypad? HELP!:

@superdan you say if it's good. Are your hotkeys working fine?

@adafruitfly your problem deserve its own thread. Please, start a new one.

This forum won't allow me to submit a new topic for some reason. I keep getting error messages. I can only reply to existing posts.

@jrmymllr

That is strange. You can always try attaching the WiFi adapter to another machine to see if you get the same level of instability. You can also check the adapter against this list to see if there are any known issues.
