[RetroPie x64] many many questions from beginners

@xboxwin You don't need to fiddle with configuration files, as I said you can do this from the RetroArch GUI.
Start a Megadrive ROM, then press Select + X on the gamepad (or Hotkey + X if you selected a different button as the Hotkey for that gamepad). This should bring up the RGUI (RetroArch Gui). Go to Controls, where you assign the buttons on your gamepad to the emulators' buttons - i.e. User 1 B can be your Y button and User 1 Y can be your B button. After you do this, scroll up and choose Save Core Remap File and you're done.
Next time you'll start a Megadrive ROM, the new mapping will be applied.
You can do the same for MAME, as long as the emulator you're using is a RetroArch core (lr-mame2003, lr-fbalpha, any lr-xyz emulator).

@mitu ehm ok. I think i already did this.
I pressed RT on my pad. I got a menu with Input (General), input (this game), etc...
I choose input this game.. and try to change button but after that button doesnt work anymore.
And if I press Hotkey + X or Select + X, nothing happens

EDIT; Ok. I got your menu. Same as in Recalbox... :D

mitu

@xboxwin That sounds like a Mame menu, are you getting this menu when running a Megadrive Rom or on an Arcade game ? What emulator are you running ?

XboxWin

@mitu yes. It's ok. I edited my previous post. I got the menu. It's the same as in Recalbox. So i know it cause i have a Recalbox installed on Raspberry too. But here i'm on a PC with RetroPie
I try and come back if needed.
Thank you :D

@mitu I got the menu but I can't navigate in. I tried to press arrows from pad, joystick, arrows from keyboard.... I can't move to the control option... and my pad works well in gale and for all.

mitu

@xboxwin The menu navigation should work with the D-pad.

XboxWin

@mitu it should :D but doesn't :/

mitu

@xboxwin Maybe because the keyboard is the 1st gamepad. Can you disconnect the keyboard while in Emulationstation, then use the gamepad only to start a ROM and enter the RGUI ?

XboxWin

@mitu it's a Laptop. I can't disconnect keyboard. I can navigate with pad... and try Guantlet with 4 players and 4 gamepads.. and all works.
I dont understand why I can't move in this menu

EDIT: Ok. I found. it's the mouse :D By using the wheels I can go to control options :D
I try...

Thank you again of course :D

XboxWin

@mitu sorry again.
So ok... I can swap button as wanted but. I can't swap D-Pad with Joystick.
Is there a way to do that except by changing setup in General Menu from Retropie?
Cause if i do that, for PSP game or PSX game I will have to use D-Pad. And it will not be good :D

EDIT: I think I found. I have to change Analog to Digital and choose Left Analog... Right?

Yes, that's it.
