ok good the second one is not a big deal. so no worries
the next thing we need to do is start the mapping.
as you read in the guide you will need to make a runcommand-onstart.sh and runcommand-onend.sh
for runcommand-onend.sh you just need to follow what is in the guide, that will never change.
the runcommand-onstart.sh is the one that will change, i will help you out with the start, once you play with it a little then i can point out what needs to be done to get it going
[•] is where you will enter the keycode from your post above.
--evdev-keymap KEY_#304=ais how you will need to enter it.#!/bin/sh sudo killall > /dev/null 2>&1 xboxdrv /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv > /dev/null 2>&1 \ --evdev /dev/input/event0 \ --silent \ --detach-kernel-driver \ --force-feedback \ --deadzone-trigger 15% \ --deadzone 4000 \ --mimic-xpad \ --evdev-absmap ABS_[•]=x1,ABS_[•]=y1,ABS_[•]=x2,ABS_[•]=y2,ABS_[•]=lt,ABS_[•]=rt,ABS_[•]=dpad_x,ABS_[•]=dpad_y \ --evdev-keymap BTN_[•]=a,BTN_[•]=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_[•]=tl,BTN_[•]=tr,BTN_[•]=guide,BTN_[•]=back,BTN_[•]=start \ &so you have a anlog joystick on your controller? or is it just buttons
-
Thanks. I will work on it this evening when I get home. The controller is in the picture. It has an analog joystick and buttons. The buttons are from a super nintendo controller board I cut up and the analog joystick is from the raspberry pi store. Here is the guide to what I made.
https://learn.adafruit.com/super-game-pi
I don't think the joystick is an actual analog movement joystick. Looks like it's just up, down, left, right.
-
ok cool
the only think that might be a hang up will be the fact is that you do no have any ABS or anglog movement which is used for the mouse movement.
but i think it still should work with just buttons, we will cross that when the time comes. if need be we can ask the god of keymapping.
-
I completed both steps of creating the runcommand-onend.sh and runcommand-onstart.sh. Based on what I posted above for my controller layout does this look correct for the keys?
--evdev-keymap KEY_#44=a,KEY_#45=b,KEY_#31=x,KEY_#30=y,KEY_#16=lb,KEY_#17=rb,BTN_[•]=tl,BTN_[•]=tr,BTN_[•]=guide,KEY_#1=back,KEY_#28=start
&If so, where do I assign the keys for direction? According tho the results I got they would be keys 108, 103, 105, 106.
Thanks for your help.

@bassman6805
so far it is looking good
you can removeBTN_[•]=tl,BTN_[•]=tr,BTN_[•]=guidefor your d pad it will look like this
BTN_TOP2=du,BTN_PINKIE=dr,BTN_BASE=dd,BTN_BASE2=dl
replace theBTNwith your key numberas for getting it to work with the mouse im still looking it to
-
When I add the directions do they go in the same line as the others?
-
yes.
you keep everything that goes with the first part in the same line.
--evdev-keymapis for keys and buttons. -
Here is what I have for the onstart.sh
#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" = "scummvm" ]
then
sudo killall > /dev/null 2>&1 xboxdrv
sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv > /dev/null 2>&1
--evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•]
--silent
--detach-kernel-driver
--force-feedback
--deadzone-trigger 15%
--deadzone 4000
--mimic-xpad
--evdev-absmap ABS_[•]=x1,ABS_[•]=y1,ABS_[•]=x2,ABS_[•]=y2,ABS_[•]=lt,ABS_[•]=rt,ABS_[•]=dpad_x,ABS_[•]=dpad_y
--evdev-keymap KEY_#44=a,KEY_#45=b,KEY_#31=x,KEY_#30=y,KEY_#16=lb,KEY_#17=rb,KEY_#1=back,KEY_#28=start,KEY_108=du,KEY_106=dr,KEY_103=dd,KEY_105=dl
--axismap -Y1=Y1,-Y2=Y2
--ui-axismap x1=REL_X:10,y1=REL_Y:10
--ui-buttonmap b=BTN_LEFT,a=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5

--ui-axismap x2=void

I'm still not getting anything to work. I am using scummvm sdl1 if that matters.
I also tried regular scummvm.
-
@bassman6805
you have most of it right but there are a few things that were needed
try this#!/bin/sh if [ "$1" = "scummvm" ] then sudo killall > /dev/null 2>&1 xboxdrv sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv > /dev/null 2>&1 \ --evdev /dev/input/event0 \ --silent \ --detach-kernel-driver \ --force-feedback \ --deadzone-trigger 15% \ --deadzone 4000 \ --mimic-xpad \ --evdev-keymap KEY_#44=a,KEY_#45=b,KEY_#31=x,KEY_#30=y,KEY_#16=lb,KEY_#17=rb,KEY_#1=back,KEY_#28=start,KEY_#108=du,KEY_#106=dr,KEY_#103=dd,KEY_#105=dl \ --ui-buttonmap b=BTN_LEFT,a=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,dr=REL_X:25,dl=REL_X:-25,dd=REL_Y:25,du=REL_Y:-25 \ --ui-buttonmap guide=void,x=void,y=void,lb=void,rb=void,tl=void,tr=void,lt=void,rt=void,back=void \ & fi -
I'll give it a shot this evening. On a side note, how do you get the code to show up in the black box on here?
-
-
I pasted the code word for word but I still don't get any movement when I launch scummvm and the buttons do not seem to do anything either. Is there something else I can check? Would it help if I posted some settings or something?
-
I did find out that the xboxdrv was not installed. The original directions I found were old and the menus had changed. I figured out the location and installed it but still no controller response.
-
when you are running the game you can put this on the command line.
then sudo killall > /dev/null 2>&1 xboxdrv sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \ --evdev /dev/input/event0 \ --silent \ --detach-kernel-driver \ --force-feedback \ --deadzone-trigger 15% \ --deadzone 4000 \ --mimic-xpad \ --evdev-keymap KEY_#44=a,KEY_#45=b,KEY_#31=x,KEY_#30=y,KEY_#16=lb,KEY_#17=rb,KEY_#1=back,KEY_#28=start,KEY_#108=du,KEY_#106=dr,KEY_#103=dd,KEY_#105=dl \ --ui-buttonmap b=BTN_LEFT,a=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,dr=REL_X:25,dl=REL_X:-25,dd=REL_Y:25,du=REL_Y:-25 \ --ui-buttonmap guide=void,x=void,y=void,lb=void,rb=void,tl=void,tr=void,lt=void,rt=void,back=void \ &this will force it to start and if there is any errors it will come up.
if it is working it will pop up something like this

-
Please excuse my ignorance. I'm not sure how to get a command line after I select scummvm from the retropie menu. Do I start scummvm on the retropie menu then ssh into the unit and run the command?
-
-
Sorry about that. Will this still work at the opening scummvm screen? That's as far as I can get. I don't have any games loaded because I can't move the cursor to load them. This is all I get.
-
yes if you put this in the ssh it will come up with something
