      @aatheronb said in xbox one controller bug:

      it confuses the pi because is see's the controllers as the same name

      What does 'confuses' mean ? It disconnects the other controller or ? What's the problem you're seeing ?

      Please add more info about your setup - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

              @mitu this happened in the past with the xboxdrv driver and also if you had two janky off brand dragonrise controllers, it treated the controllers as the same controller because they had the same name so one controller would control both. I'm not as familiar with Xbox one controllers but I wonder if it's something similar

              Btw I have a bit of a vested interest in this post for... Reasons. Would be interested in helping find a solution

              If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

              Also if you want a solution to your problems read this first: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

                    That's normal - since they all report the same name. As @herb_fargus said - did you install the xboxdrv by any chance ?
                    Does this happen in all games, or only in N64 (SSB) ? Did you do any additional configuration on the system, besides the defaults RetroPie provides ?

                      i tried but i couldnt find any guides where they use xbox one controllers in the xboxdrv its all xbox 360 controllers. this problem happens in all emulators that have multiplayer games.
                      code i used

                      sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh
                      

                      then i used

                      sudo bash -c 'echo 1 > /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm'

                        OK, so you didn't do any great deal of configuration on your installation. You don't actually need the xboxdrv for your controllers to work.
                        Now, I'm not sure about what model of Pi you're using - see my previous question. If you're using a B+, which is the equivalent of a Pi1, you don't have an onboard Bluetooth adapter, which means you'd be using a BT USB adapter. The 3B+ model has onboard BT. Which model are you using ? (I'm inclined to say 3B+, but a confirmation would be nice).

                        Since your problem is quite peculiar, we'd need a log file and some diagnostic info.

                        1. Run from a command line (or SSH session).
                        cat /proc/bus/input/devices
                        

                        and post the output.

                        1. Start a multi-player game, but use the Runcommand launch menu and chose to run your game with Verbose Logging enabled. Exit the game, then get the emulator log file from /dev/shm/runcommand.log and post it to pastebin.com so we can take a look.

                              @aatheronb Well, yes, the command should have been run with the controllers connected. Right now it only shows the Logitech USB receivers for the keyboard/mouse combo and nothing about the controllers.

                                  and when i put the game on verbose logging the controllers didnt even work its probably just the emulator
                                  i normaly use gles2n64 instead of the Ir emulator

                                      @aatheronb That's a file you're supposed to copy. Run this

                                      cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log $HOME/RetroPie/roms
                                      

                                      Then open the ROM folder (with all the systems) and you'll find the file. Open it with a text editor (Notepad) and upload the contents to pastebin.com, providing the resulting URL afterwards.

                                        Hm, I think your controllers might be better served by using the xpadneo driver, which is not currently part of RetroPie's installation.

                                        Can you try installing it from https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo ? Follow the Installation steps from the project's page. Exit Emulationstation and at the command prompt, type the install commands.

                                        git clone https://github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo.git
                                        cd xpadneo
                                         ./install.sh
                                        

                                        Reboot your system (sudo reboot), then go into the RetroPie setup script and follow the steps to pair a Bluetooth controller - remove any previously configured gamepads first. After you pair again the controllers, configure one of them in Emulationstation (doesn't matter which), then try and start a game to see if all of them work at the same time correctly.

                                            @aatheronb Ha, what do you know, it worked. I guess it's time we add it to RetroPie's list of drivers. Thanks for the feedback.
                                            Give it a few more tries with other systems (besides N64) - maybe a fighting game like Street Fighter - and see how it behaves.
