      Tried to make it work with the MAME. None of the buttons are functioning once in the game. All other emulators are working fine any suggestions. Thanks. PS I'm totally new to all of this. Just built a new 4 player arcade from the ground up. just stuck on this one thing.

          @5starwest Please provide the information that's asked for in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first to help us pinpoint your problem.

          Which MAME do you mean? Retropie has several versions of it, with MAME 2003 (RetroArch core lr-mame-2003) being the pre-installed one. See https://retropie.org.uk/docs/MAME/

              No reason to apologize for being new, but you still need to give us the information that's asked for in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Did you read the link?

                I'm using 4 Dragonrise joysticks and buttons - all 4 are working, but only after I config them to work in each game.

                        @Shazam make sure all your controllers are wired the same as far as buttons go this is a common mistake that some people do.

                        Let me explain whats going on here say you has an xbox controller in and set it up then plugged another in it would use the same mapping as you set as the first one because it saves the setup for that controller type(retroarch).

                        The same thing happens with the dragon rise its regarded as one controller type you need to wire them up the same so they all match and you only need to set one up for them all to work. I can guide you guys on mame2003 or 2003-plus to get started if that would help.
