Issues with using Arcade stick with Brook Wireless Fighting Board with Retropie
-
I recently built an arcade stick with a Brook Wireless Fighting Board in order to play various 2D fighters, and still had space in the casing, and so I placed a Raspberry Pi 4 inside of it with IO ports drilled into the case and a USB Hub going from one of the two USB 3.0 ports on the Pi to holes on the outside. All of this went well, however as I plugged my arcade stick into the USB ports on the USB Hub, regardless of if I set it to be registered as a PS3, PS4, Switch or X-Input controller, it isn't detected as a gamepad when trying to configure inputs. I know that the USB Hub isn't the problem, because I had three PS4 controllers connected to the USB Hub VIA USB and all working simultaneously, and I know that the board isn't faulty in any way because I use it on my Switch, PS4, PS3 and PC just fine, and the issue persists even after I updated Retropie to the newest version (Updated the RP4 an hour prior to making this post). I see no reason why the Fightstick shouldn't be detected, so I've come here to ask if anyone would happen to know what the issue is, have experienced this, or have a solution so that I could play 2D fighters with my Arcade stick on the raspberry pi.

Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
Can you test your gamepad with
jstest /dev/input/js0
from the command line to see if the device registers correctly ?Exit EmulationStation, disconnect all controllers, then reconnect only the Fighting Board and run the command. You can interrupt the test with
Ctrl+C
then runemulationstation
to get back to EmulationStation. -
