        Sorry if this is a Noob Question

        To delete that file

        I go to directory

        /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv

        Sudo rm xboxdrv

        Is that correct ?

        About the other Scumm I did experience freeze ups and I'm not sure why , but in the end I guess I just want to learn how to configure xboxdrv as a mouse ... it's about learning then having fun by playing after I appreciate the help and learn and then play the game

            just use sudo nano /etc/rc.local and remove

            sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \
                --evdev /dev/input/event2 \
                --silent \
                --detach-kernel-driver \
                --force-feedback \
                --deadzone-trigger 15% \
                --deadzone 4000 \
                --mimic-xpad \
                --evdev-absmap ABS_HAT0X=dpad_x,ABS_HAY0Y=dpad_y \
                --evdev-keymap BTN_SOUTH=a,BTN_EAST=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_TL2=back,BTN_TR2=start \
                --dpad-only \
                --ui-axismap lt=void,rt=void \
                --ui-buttonmap tl=void,tr=void,guide=void \
                &
            

            this is what you have in your txt of what you did.

            as for me i have not played much with either. but im finding that with my 8bitdo pro 2 the scummvm already has my analog stick mapped as a mouse. not sure how.i think cuz it now supports it as a mouse from defult now that im looking into it

                @escc1986 ok now that is gone. we can start
                with that in there is would override everything setting that the pie uses.

                we want it for a certain game.

                          --evdev is the code the controller sends out
                          --ui is what we want the controller to do.

                          so exampler from mine
                          i had the a key mapped as the left mouse button

                          --evdev-keymap KEY_#304=a
                          
                          --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT

                                the buttons are the easy part. the dpad is tricky for me.
                                so i think work on getting the other buttons mapped. as i do some playing on my end

                                  sorry to be a headach ...

                                  i guess the thing that confuses me the most is the steps

                                  like there is alot of steps unless it can be simplfyed somehow

                                  yes the d pad is what confuese me alot too

                                        @escc1986 yes thats right.
                                        the event will change as things are plugged in and out

                                        so is you dont play to have a keyboard in there full time best to set if for event 0
