      I have installed port Quake through tyrquake emulator but does not get me to recognize a wireless mouse. I can only handle it with a wireless keyboard.

      What do I have to do to get mouse support?

      Thanks.

          These quickmenu options do not correspond to what appears to me. The different screens that I get to the configuration of port 1 are the following:

          Menu 1:
          20210725_093645.jpg

          Menu 2:
          20210725_093735.jpg

          Menu 3:
          20210725_093817.jpg

          Menu 4:
          20210725_093849.jpg

          Once located on the last screen I lose myself because I do not know what adjustments to make.

          In the case of such a famous game as Quake seems a lie that does not allow for a default playing with mouse.

          Someone could help me?

            @fernaretro you're getting confused, in retroarch there's the main menu and the quick menu. If memory serves when you hit select & X it should take you to the quick menu first.

            There's 2 sets of input configurations in retroarch the input in main menu that is used to setup a controller (which Retropie does for you already) and the quick menu Controls, which configure things specific to that core/emulator/game.

              Excuse my clumsiness but because of my little experience in this world I can not locate the QuickMenu.

              Could you tell me in which of these screen you would have to get me to find the QuickMenu?

              Thanks for the help.

                @fernaretro okay so screenshot 1 and 2 are parts of emulationstation. The front-end of Retropie.

                Screenshot 3 is Retroarch, the program/app that runs any game that is an lr- core. You don't need to load Retropie from raspi-config. I don't own Quake but if you choose Quake from the "ports" section of Emulationstation then run it, you should then be able to fire up select&X and it'll take you to the Quick Menu of the core itself (in this instance lr-tyrquake).

                  At last I have located this menu and I have managed to make the appropriate changes so that the mouse recognizes me.

                  If it were not for your help, I would not have achieved it. Thanks ;)
