    I have been looking for some time, to find the screen that says push AB on your controller. I want to change the wording, as its not AB on mine. I'm not trying to change the inputs they work fine. I need to get into a script or program that makes it say that.
    Tnx

        The screen that says to configure your wireless controller push AB or f14 to exit

          @perkunas You mean this screen ?

          That can't be configured - it's part of EmulationStation source. But the meaning of a button is more like any button, it doesn't refer specifically to the A button on a gamepad.

                @perkunas You download https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation, modify the source file that contains the message and then re-compile to get a new emulationstation binary.

                  @mitu "modify the source file that contains the message"
                  That's what I'm trying to ask, what's the source file, I've gone through them all, and cant find it.

                    The source of that welcom message is in GuiDetectDevice.cpp.

                        But... if you're trying to just prevent the message from appearing when you don't have a controller available, the easiest solution is to configure a keyboard as input in EmulationStation. When started, even if there's no controller connected, EmulationStation will skip the welcome message and go right into the system list.
