Desperate! Controllers (retrolink, ibuffalo and xin mo) config

meleu

Oh sorry... I think you want another thing...

The problem is that i dont know how to configure specific controller for specific emus.

Are you using bluetooth or USB-wired controllers?

chan

usb wired controller.
Ibuffalo and retrolink

Im trying to get the 2 controllers working in their emu

Ibuffalo (snes controlleres) for snes. and retrolink for nes, but i only have luck with one controller

i tried to follow the github instructions but with no luck, or maybe, for sure, im doing something wrong

With USB controllers, you can configure it on the systems specific retroarch.cfg file, as described in the wiki, and allways take care to plug the controllers on specific ports.

But if you want something more dynamic and user-friendly, you can try it:

i configured in retroarch.
one was sucesfully configured but when i tried to insert 2 controllers they failed.
See the putty i pasted.

With that script it only needs to configure the controllers outside?
i mean to configure via config-input in retropie menu

It seems that your problem is with the indexes. You need to know the indexes of your controllers and then configure it in retroarch.cfg, as mentioned by @PetroRie . If you don't know what I'm talking about, that script is for you. ;-)

Yes.

Meleu.

Thanks for your help.!!
Now i can play with all the controllers.
Yesterday i tested it and it works with the sxript, he only "bad thing" is that the second usb gamepad is not good configured so button b exit the game :p

I will burn the image again and make eerything again just to make ot run good.

Thanks for your help.

PD: I suppose that if this script mdify retroarch, then i can copy the lines and insert into the specific emulators.
Im correct?
