    no problems at all my good man every time i see this daphne issue come up i kinda just help the person the emulator clearly just needs these fixes. The good thng now as well if you plug your arcade contoller in your windows machine it will work properly as well.

      First of all I would like to thanks for this topic that partially solved my problem.

      Till this afternoon I couldn't use my joystick in two directions, than I've compiled like grant2258 has suggested and now i've all 4 directions.

      The issue is that now directions aren't coordinate in all daphne games (and only with daphne emulator, 'cause are correct with all other emulators).
      For example in Dragon's Lair if I move the joystick:

      • up, Dirk moves left;
      • down, Dirk moves up;
      • right, Dirk moves down;
      • left, Dirk moves right.

      I've controlled with jstest and I think that daphinput.ini file's is correctly configured.

      I've a raspberry pi 3b+, dragonrise usb encoders with driver version 2.1.0, retropie v. 4.4, kernel v.4.9.80-v7+.

      Which could be the solution?

      To explain better I put the following link to: 1) my daphinput's file, 2) pictures of my joystick, 3) pictures of my cabinet and of jstest's results:

      https://1drv.ms/f/s!AgmGMB-AfnaBh5sP4hyUJ1HQ0PaMLw

      Great problem is that I've difficulties to open my cabinet to rotate joystick, do you think is it possible to solve through software?

      Tnx!

      Fabio

      p.s. Finally I've solved the issue and I decide to pubblish my solution hoping to help someone with the same situazione. 'cause I can't rotate joystick I changed the position of the cables connected to the the pin of dragonrise's encoder.
      The only handicap is the necessity to configurate another time the joysticks in emulationstation, but in five minutes it's done.

        @grant2258 Oh my God!. Just found this post after a long time trying to get my DragonRise arcade controller to recognise left & right. Ran the above and it worked immediately. Thanks you so much :-)

                looks like updates would be needed to compile for the latest pi. Ill look into this when i have time.

                      I am excited to be able to play the Dl saga in the little machine, I do not see the day that I can do it one of my illusions is to play these games and it is bad luck that these usb controllers fail ...

                        im testing now is compiling will let you know soon.

                        edit i had no issues it compiled and installed fine all i can think of something could be going wrong with your copy and paste do one line at a time.

                          Do I have to have daphne installed before doing it or completely deleted ??

                          I don't have to activate anything else from the raspberry setup or something ??

                          That night at house i check anything.

                          Not are posible send me a file compiled?

                          Thanks again sir

                            no need to install anything the instructions will compile and install. I would suggest you set your controller again as it trigger a script to set your controller config for daphne after you install it.

                              When I get home I will try again, I use a full version that already had daphne installed, I will try to uninstall it better before doing so. Right?

                                      I hope it is not very complicated to use putty, I have never used any of this

                                        @grant2258 Greetings again, the truth I am a little sad because I do not know what is happening and it is frustrating lol. It seems that everything is installing well until a moment comes to a stop and tells me this, I attach the photo.

                                        https://imgur.com/a/1zbJFMH

                                        Sorry but it seems that I will not add photos to be seen in the forum ...

                                        That finish say /tmp/build/daphne/daphne.bin not found, and stoped...

                                        I know that you are the only person who can help me in this world and I am super grateful for the time dedicated.

                                        Wouldn't it be possible somehow to pass me the already compiled files or folders to see if I would make it work? I don't understand why it gives me that failure = (
