Xin-Mo Instructions?

@GreenHawk84 If you edit the retroarch.cfg file, you will see a section where you can change the font, colour and position of the messages. You can even turn them off. The relevant section to look out for is:

# Path to a font used for rendering messages. This path must be defined to enable fonts.
# Do note that the _full_ path of the font is necessary!
# video_font_path = 

# Size of the font rendered.
# video_font_size = 32

# Enable usage of OSD messages.
# video_font_enable = true

# Offset for where messages will be placed on screen. Values are in range 0.0 to 1.0 for both x and y values. 
# [0.0, 0.0] maps to the lower left corner of the screen.
# video_message_pos_x = 0.05
# video_message_pos_y = 0.05

# Color for message. The value is treated as a hexadecimal value.
# It is a regular RGB hex number, i.e. red is "ff0000".

Just modify

video_font_enable = true

to false.

@rbaker , thank you, I just hope that I am not covering up something since the system is throwing these messages about configuration.

@GreenHawk84 I wouldn't worry, I get ipac not configured when my roms boot because I configured a separate keyboard but not the usb decoder....even though it works.

Hi all,

I was worrying about setting this controller up on my system
RPi3
RetroPie 4.0.3
The Xin-Mo shows up as "Bus 001 Device 007: ID 16c0:05e1 Van Ooijen Technische Informatica Free shared USB VID/PID pair for CDC devices

I added usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040 to /boot/cmdline.txt after a space after the last entry on the same line and rebooted.

I have a NES controller as Joystick one.

I reset emulation station in RetroPie-Setup, Configuration / Tools to Clear/Reset Emulation Station input config and restarted EmulationStation and configured the new controller by pressing a Xin-Mo button on Player 1. I could then control the EmulatinStation/RetroPie menus via Xin-Mo P1. This shows as Joystick 2.

I then fired up a game in Mame4All (Streetfighter2) and hit Tab when the game started and Selected Input General. For UI Cancel I chose , My NES controller Hotkets Select+Start and also Xin-Mo Select +Start as my ROM exit keys.

I then added P1 and P2 settings in Input (This Game) for Xin-Mo P1 and P2. My joy 2 and joy3,as NES controller is joy1.

This is working for me. I hope this helps anyone trying to keep up with getting this working on new versions of everything.

Cheers

Stuart
