          @beamquaker if I leave it at your default I have button 1 and 2 automatically mapped and exit . I have to put money in and start the game using keyboard controls. Once in game the controls are perfect. I used jstest and entered the buttons numbers that corresponded with the buttons I wanted to use. None of the buttons work that I tried to map . Thanks

            @beamquaker said in Daphne . Arcade joystick orientation wrong.:

            ect. I us

            read what that text says anything with a # is ignored scroll right to the bottom thats where they keys are set i added all that stuff for information

            look here
            https://github.com/grant2258/daphne-emu/blob/1449/dapinput.ini#L60

            scroll to the bottom youll see my default settings dont put any # after [KEYBOARD] that will cause problems and if you want to take the other stuff away leave at least one # statement before [KEYBOARD] below is a example take away any key names you dont want to set . If you have any problems ext the emulator post your config and any messages you think are relevant from.

            less /dev/shm/runcommand.log

            #myconfig
            [KEYBOARD]
            KEY_START1 = -1 -1 8
            KEY_BUTTON1 = -1 -1 0
            KEY_BUTTON2 = -1 -1 1
            KEY_BUTTON3 = -1 -1 2
            KEY_COIN1 = -1 -1 9
            KEY_SKILL1 = -1 -1 4
            KEY_SKILL2 = -1 -1 5
            KEY_SKILL3 = -1 -1 6
            KEY_QUIT = -1 -1 7

              @grant2258 sorry I never read that. You are a genius . It's completely fixed . I mapped them no problem . It moves diagonally to on every direction. Surely the Daphne project will makes this an official update . Thank you so much

                  @grant2258 alot of people are asking about this on you tube videos . So it's clearly a massive problem that you sorted in 8 days . And plus it's the first time you have even used the emulator. I posted on you tube and gave a link to this discussion.

                      @grant2258 Howdy Friend,
                      To be fair I am having a tough time understanding exactly what the change is and why it is needed. I promise I am not being ugly here. Really trying to understand.
                      So you are setting keys you want ignored to negative values?
                      I assume anything you want mapped to the joystick would need to be jtest value +1
                      What are the negative values for?
                      Thanks for your work on this. Mapping does suck for daphne...bigtime.

                        @shakz my arcade dragon ryse joystick would not work in Daphne . After grant2258 patched it my joysticks worked perfect and I could map the buttons using the corresponding numbers instead of the +1 . I'm incredibly happy now as I can play dragon's lair 2 and Mach 3 perfectly. When I had this problem I found some comments on the internet of other people having the same problem with the dragon ryse joysticks and Daphne.

                          i posted some info on the github page hope that helps im really having with github though i think im getting there. We can talk on github about this i clarify anything you need to know and will make sure the code doesnt mess with the numbering .system. that was just something i wanted to change for myself ans doesnt have to be done

                              its all done and fixed all you have to do is accept the pull request. It fixes the analog joystick axis and the extra buttons not getting mapped. i know i see the button 10 buttons thing its intentional i was testing for when you tried to set more buttons that we setup in the code .

                              pico /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/emulators/daphne.sh

                              change

                              just replace RetroPie with grant2258

                              then run retropie setup -> manage packages->optional->daphane->update from source if yout having troubles this will get you going

                                @grant2258 Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I just finished building my machine and I'm having this same problem. I originally set up Daphne with a gamepad and it worked fine. But when I installed my Ultrastick 360 the joystick mapping is wrong. I updated daphne.sh to point to your github and ran the "Update from Source" but the mapping still isn't working. Any suggestions?

                                      Sorry to bring up an old thread again but I'm having issues regarding the DragonRise joysticks that most people are using in my Arcade 1UP.
                                      Here is a rundown of what's happened and where I am at:
                                      I had an issue with the mapping of the controls where up was down and vice versa. Left was right and right didn't do anything at all.
                                      I came across the fix by @grant2258 and applied that. This worked for the up and down and also left and right except for the left and right are reversed.
                                      I have plugged the controller into windows and sure enough the joystick is backwards on both player 1 and 2.
                                      I know that the mapping of the controls in emulation station have no effect on the controls in Daphne.
                                      My question is that how do I 'rotate' the joystick and turn it around so that it fixes the left and right? Surely rotating it will cause up and down to be reversed?
                                      Do I remove the restrictor plate and rotate the PCB 180 degrees?
                                      Thanks for any help. I really want to put this problem to bed as its bugging the shit out of me.

                                        @pootis-spencer You do have one of these usb encoders, right?

                                        https://www.amazon.co.uk/Quimat-Arcade-Encoder-Joystick-Fighting/dp/B06XCTJ1JP

                                        They ususally register as "DragonRise" controllers in Retropie.

                                        If so, is your joystick connected to the encoder by four wires? Then they should be plugged into the four slots named AU, AD, AR, and AL. The second letters stand for up, down, right, and left. Make sure the corresponding microswitches of your joystick are connected to the right slots, and re-configure the joystick in Emulation station (irrelevant for Daphne, but not for the rest of Retropie).

                                            I review this post because I believe it is still the only solution to use the daphne with a Dragonrise Encoder on an 8-key Arcade Stick. The problem that I have not yet solved and that I hope someone has already done is that only the first 10 keys are mapped, that is from 1 to 10. If the keys seen by jstest go beyond the 10th, they are not even considered by the daphne for the setting of the dapintput.ini file. How to solve the problem? Thank you!
