@mitu I dont think so

@Rascas Same problems, but the navigation was a bit slower

@Guyshlomi What are the extensions of the roms?

Following. Mine hasn't worked for a few years now either. Very disappointing. Does anyone have this working?

@Tango said in Controller Mapping - Inconsistent from EmulationStation to Games:

So this was an actual, “You have to go to the source code” thing? Interesting.

That was just for confirmation - otherwise it's just speculation.

Is this issue in the source for EmulationStation or something else? And what language is it in?

I don't see it as an issue if this was never intended to work like this. EmulationStation is a C++ application.

I would think, depending on how the data is handled in the program, it might not be too hard to add this in.

That can be true, but the gains IMHO are minimal and would cover only corner cases like yours.

@kevinkaufman Please don't post to years old topics - post your own topic instead and provide all the info needed to help you diagnose and fix the problem.

It depends on what resolutions are supported by your VGA monitor/TV. Look in the video options available and set your resolution accordingly - https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md.

But HDMI/VGA needs a signal converter/adapter (for digital to analog signal), a 'simple' cable is not going to output anything.

@mitu It's working for me too now. Thanks for fixing this.

Thanks I will give that a go

@philtomo said in Advice with Wireless controller and Retro pi:

Thanks for your replies with this - the controllers are from the Pi Hut "Compatible Wireless Gamepad"

These seem to be wireless, but with an USB dongle (receiver) - so they're not using Bluetooth. If they get stuck at times, then maybe the controller wireless connection is interrupted, but this is between the receiver and the controller.

If you use only 1 controller, do you get the same issues ?

Check on its own and i have the same problem. I removed the wireless keyboard dongle also and still the same.
Any ideas?

Thanks!

I did everything via ssh, then when I was able to get to the machine and turn on the display, it was working and I had access to 4,705 arcade games! True, hundreds of those were just Mahjong or different versions, but all the stuff I had fun playing in arcades is all there.

@mitu sad day

@SwitchedPC

Great googley moogely and it runs at 60fps? That’s nuts.

@rejesterd I followed the steps you put for the reicast install and it's all worked. I see what you mean about the BIOS moving into their own folder too, I checked that out once it had installed. Thanks for your help, much appreciated 👍

I cant help directly, but I have a similar issue. My LCD monitor is in 'normal' orientation however, with the mayflash wii bar mounted horizontally at the top. My crosshairs are constrained to the bottom left quandrant in mame-2003-plus at least. (pi 3B+, latest official retropie build).

so no help but fyi you are not alone! I just came onto the forum to search for the same issue

good luck finding a solution! Everyone here is amazing so hopefully there'll be an answer.

raspberry 3b+ , retroarch 1.8.4 , retropie 4.5.1. Touch wait for the solution.

@corminos said in spinner for Z-Axis with flight stick:

Does anyone know if there is something that I can modify in the Retroarch.cfg file, or in the game setting for this?

You can chose a RetroArch based emulator for that specific rom (Afterburner 2) and you can also create a per-game config - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/#hardcoded-configurations.
