@cdoug does anything show on the screen when you are typing?

ok i finally uploaded everything and made a readme on github. Everything works now, when mouse mode is active the keys from your buttons are not registered anymore and you can switch between mouse mode and your normal input method. you specify and remap existing keys of your encoder specifically for use in mouse mode (you tell it if i press this button which is key CTRL for example then send key F5 instead). You can specify 6 keys like this.

i did not find a game yet that did not work with this version, my readme needs work though but it's a rather long readme for something simple to setup

@jojo280 Yeah, you should mark this thread as solved :)

Thanks for the reply but i dont find any of these options

@kingcrafty sounds like you didn't follow https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/First-Installation (Did you restart emulationstation ? Did you make sure the rom names are correct - check the wiki pages for the systems in question).

It works perfectly, thanks a lot!

Hi. Thanks i did that also. Read it on another forum but still the same problem. Wont pick up ANY bluetooth devices. Not just the lro controller. Maybe a hardware issue. Im jist gonna get a wireless adapter to plug in via usb.
Really wanted to utilize the on board bluetooth but no biggie. Not worth the hours i already spent researching the subject. Thanks for all your help. Great forum

Here's a video that shows you how to install a power switch on a PI3.

That's unfortunate.

Does anyone know any workarounds such as using the device as a controller rather than keyboard? Or mapping the keys to a virtual controller?

@xxxARCH3Rxxx plug it in. Sync your wiimotes to it. You need to go and undo everything you just did though. So it doesnt have any conflicts.

However when I try to scrape Genesis, it only returns with Mega Drive art.

I've heard that if you edit your es_systems.cfg and change <platform>megadrive</platform> to <platform>genesis</platform> it will scrape Genesis art instead of Megadrive. I haven't tested this so please let us know if this works.

UUID info here:

And there's so more info here (more for flash drives than HDDs):

Fixed it was a corrupt drive

FIX: https://raspberryblog.de/?p=1870, now works perfect.

@zipfixer i don't really understand this rebooting thing, but the way to change aspect ratios for some/all systems is via https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Configuration-Editor

note: this is only for libretro ("lr-") emulators, which are basically all the defaults for each system. for n64.. depends which n64 emulator you are using.

Got it to work found out that the file never fully transferred over and thats why it wasn't showing up. Also if you use filezilla to transfer files over a ethernet cable make sure you use port number 22 or it will not let you connect to the pi

@talfr Hi,

I don't have a rc6_mce file or rc_keymaps folder....

where do I get it from?
