          with xdrive everything can be made to work

          here is MY old mapping i used to need to use

          #!/bin/sh
          
          if [ "$1" = "scummvm" ]
          then
          sudo killall > /dev/null 2>&1 xboxdrv
          sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv > /dev/null 2>&1 \
              --evdev /dev/input/event2 \
          	--silent \
          	--detach-kernel-driver \
          	--force-feedback \
          	--mimic-xpad \
          	--dpad-as-button \
          	--trigger-as-button \
          	--evdev-absmap ABS_X=x1,ABS_Y=y1,ABS_Z=x2,ABS_RZ=y2,ABS_HAT0X=dpad_x,ABS_HAT0Y=dpad_y \
          	--evdev-keymap KEY_#304=a,KEY_#305=b,KEY_#307=x,KEY_#308=y,KEY_#312=lt,KEY_#313=rt,KEY_#310=lb,KEY_#311=rb,KEY_#317=tl,KEY_#318=tr,KEY_#314=back,KEY_#315=start \
          	--calibration x1=-32767:0:32767,y1=-32767:0:32767,x2=-32767:0:32767,y2=-32767:0:32767 \
          	--axismap -Y1=Y1,-Y2=Y2 \
          	--ui-axismap x1=REL_X:10,y1=REL_Y:10 \
          	--ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT,b=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,back=KEY_ESC \
          	--ui-buttonmap guide=void,x=void,y=void,lb=void,rb=void,tl=void,tr=void,lt=void,rt=void,back=void \
          	--ui-axismap x2=void \
          &
          fi
          

          yours was getting there but its missing a bit for it all work.

                --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

                                          you need this on the top or it will not know when to start the mapping

                                          if [ "$1" = "scummvm" ]
                                          then
                                          sudo killall >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 xboxdrv
                                          sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 \

                                            go to the

                                            Key-Mapping For Individual Emulators part to get a start on how the runcommand needs to look like

                                            but for now i think you should just put your mapping in a txt on your computer.

                                            there are ways to test it before you setup the run command
