[Solved]Xbox One controller(bluetooth) not working in games.

@Efriim thanks that worked

DavidB21

@mitu The xpadneo driver worked but there are still some issues with the nes emulator. The xbox controller worked the first time I booted up the nes emulator after installing xpadneo, but then never worked after that. It worked with other emulators, but not with the nes one.

@DavidB21 delete the retroarch.cfg file in the nes config folder and then reinstall retroarch.

@DavidB21 Also the hotkey to leave the game doesn't work on the nes emulator either.

@DavidB21 read my last post

DavidB21

@edmaul69 I just did I am about to try that.

DavidB21

@edmaul69 After removing the file how do I get it back?

edmaul69

@DavidB21 reinstall retroarch in retropie setup.

DavidB21

@edmaul69 ok

DavidB21

@edmaul69 I removed and then reinstalled retroarch and the retroarch.cfg file isn't there

@DavidB21 Reinstall lr-fceumm, this will re-create the retroarch.cfg in the NES configuration folder.

DavidB21

@mitu I ran the nes emulator and a retroarch.cfg file was creating in the nes config folder. Is this config file normal?

Not really, you still have 'Save Config on Exit' set-up in RetroArch - somewhere.

DavidB21

@mitu How do I disable this? I might have accidentally clicked something when I was messing around in the retroarch settings earlier.

mitu

@DavidB21 Reset - again - the retroarch.cfg files

the one in /opt/retropie/configs/all
the NES config one /opt/retropie/configs/nes

Remove the retroarch.cfg files and then reinstall retroarch and lr-fceumm from the RetroPie-Setup script.
Why do you keep enabling Save config on exit ?

DavidB21

@mitu I am not enabling it anywhere. And I'm sorry I am kind of a noob at this but could you give a step by step instruction on how to reinstall retroarch and lr-fceumm, so that I know that I am doing it right.

mitu

@DavidB21 Any package can be installed from the RetroPie-Setup script - see the Docs.
Is there a reason you've installed on-top of Raspbian instead of using the RetroPie provided image ?

Efriim

@DavidB21
It looks really normal, are there other instances the controller does work? It was good for one time? If you delete both the retroarch configs (retroarch.cfg, FCEUmm.cfg) the options will be re-enumerated the next time you run.

To install the packages start 'RetroPie Setup' from emulationstation, follow
manage packages >> core packages >> retroarch >> update binary
manage packages >> main packages >> lr-fceumm >> update binary
manage packages >> main packages >> lr-nestopia >> update binary
manage packages >> main packages >> lr-quicknes >> update binary

DavidB21

@mitu I just didn't want to reset the SD card. I wanted to keep the progress of other things that I had done.

mitu

@DavidB21 Then follow the instructions posted and it should be fine.
