      Hello ,

      Yesterday for the first time i tried to install retropie last version.
      I followed the first instalation guide, and it was pretty simple do it.
      I configure my controls ( Arcade zero delay encoder) and assign the start button (player 1 logo button) select button( for credits).
      Then i started a game, and try to test the combo hot key to exit the game, but didn´t worked. I didn´t change anything... Any tips to solve this?
      I tried toki game running mame 0.78 romset and LR Mame 2003 as a emulator.
      I also saw on configuration´s controls for street fighter it only accept 4 buttons...

      Thanks

        @ccouteiro did you assign anything as 'hotkey'? it is the last button to be configured when you set up your controller.

        to quit the game it is hotkey + start.

        I also saw on configuration´s controls for street fighter it only accept 4 buttons...

        what configuration?

          I guess not , once i only configure in emulation station the:

          • UP; DOWN;RIGHT;LEFT

          And 4 buttons, the others ones i passed... I will checked tonight when i arrive home from work...

          When i ´m playing street fighter i push tab to configure mame controls on mame menu, and in general configuration it only appears 4 buttons per player...
          Which is the best way to configure controls for MAME? 0.78 is better than Advanced MAME 1.4?
          Thanks

            assuming you mean street fighter 2?

            I think it orders the list of controls strangely - there should be 6 buttons per player somewhere in the list, but you may have to hunt for them.

            both adv mame and 0.78 will be the same in this regard, i believe.

              The last button where? In input controls of emulation station?

              The last button is name is not hotkey, right?

                @ccouteiro yes, in emulationstation. and yeah it should be 'hotkey' at the end in latest retropie, i believe.

                    @ccouteiro You're using 4.2 from the website; the latest version is 4.2.17 (I believe) which is updated through the retropie menu.
                    The default hotkey is what you set as the select button.

                        @ccouteiro are you definitely using lr-mame-2003? All libretro emulators will use the same button config you set up in emulation station. You have to configure non-libretro emulator button configs up separately.
                        I wasn't aware tab brings up the mame menu in LR versions, like in advance mame, but I've never needed to so haven't tried.

                          I update to the last version of Retropie , it´s working now, the exit function start+select.

                          The problem with street fighter 2 champion edition persists. I only have 4 buttons per player. The button 5 and 6 appears on the mame tab menu, but when i push the buttons to assign them , nothing happens, they don´t assume 5 and 6 button... How do i install advanced mame emulator?

                            what buttons are you pressing? did you bind these buttons in the initial configuration? what did retropad button did you bind them to?

                              I have two zero arcade encoders.Both players have 6 buttons, i tested the all 12 buttons on windows and they are all working . When i ´m at mame menu (pressing TAB during the game) , i choose to setup the controls, it appears dispersed, but they are there, the 6 buttons, when i try to assign the 5 and the 6, it doesn´t assign them...

                                  1- Button 5 and Button 6
                                  2- Which initial configuration ? Emulation station? Well on emulation station i only assign 4 buttons, maybe the problem is here... I didn´t assign more than 4 buttons because , the others ones are triggers and other buttons from console controllers...
                                  3- Retropad is zero arcade encoder...

                                    this is the problem. libretro cores can only see the buttons you have assigned in emulationstation.

                                        One more thing.

                                        The emulationstation , detected my two controllers, so i have to assign both them?

                                        How can i delete games ( i have some that i don´t want them) from my sdcard through the retropie , it´s possible?

                                          yeah! i think 'select'to get to the selected game's options > edit metadata > delete :)
