do this

sudo pico /boot/cmdline.txt

add this to the end (make sure you make a space from the last letter)

usbhid.quirks=0x0079:0x0006:0x40

press ctrl+x to save and exit

you will need to reboot as well

sudo shutdown -r now

To be honest just search up meleu's RetroPie-joystick-selection https://github.com/meleu/RetroPie-joystick-selection/blob/master/README.md
It is really straightforward and easy to use.

i have the same zero day controller that parameter needs to go to the kernel to stop strange things happening when using two of them no more setup is really needed beyond that,

SammyBoy

I had the exact same problem using two controllers but then I downloaded meleu's program and now my controllers work no problem

grant2258

can try it wont do any harm :)

Saint_Jimmy

May I have the link please? sammy boy

and grant, Player two can still only move down and left and (btw I added the script even though it was already there so now I have it twice on the end)

grant2258

in mame or in emulationstation?

Saint_Jimmy

mame

grant2258

ah ok if all is well in emulation station youll be fine its a mame issue

i think you might have accidently remapped some buttons seeing your menu is going on when your in mame from the other post did you delete the cfg files to reset mame to defaults ?

grant2258

make sure mame isint running

rm /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/mame2003/cfg/*

this is assuming your roms are in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/

start mame again

Saint_Jimmy

@grant2258 it says no such file or directory

Saint_Jimmy

If it helps I am using my arcade folder.

grant2258

do you have ftp access the forum took the spaces away but do me a favor

type ls /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/cfg

if there is files in there do a
rm /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/arcade/mame2003/cfg/*

if they arent there they must be in the mame 2003 with spaces

Saint_Jimmy

@grant2258 Done, what do I do know?
btw I appreciate you doing this.

grant2258

restart mame and see if you 1942 is ok from the other thread or was it 1943

Saint_Jimmy

@grant2258 THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH you solved both my problems! If I had ANY money I would pay you. Thank You SOO MUCH!!!!

grant2258

@saint_jimmy no problems mate it was an easy mistake ive done it myself sometimes you accidently go into mame and change the buttons by pressing the 8th button. #

if this happens again

us the rm command :)
