Is there a simple way to make DragonRise controllers work with Daphne??

Ken Tipton

I followed the above instruction and can confirm this works. My Dragonrise controllers now play Daphne games with no issues.

@grant2258 Hi I tried this but it asks for a username and password when I enter the third line.
If this no longer available. Thanks.

@kpikid The repository is still available, make sure you haven't mis-typed the URL - https://github.com/grant2258/daphne-emu.git.

I am also getting a username and password prompt when attempting this, and believe I’m typing it correctly. Can someone verify if they can in fact get to this on GitHub? I’ve used this fix in the past and it works great, but I updated my build of daphne and I badly need to run this again!

The repository is no longer present on Github, that's why you get the error.

I thought that was the case but previous posts had me questioning myself.

Unfortunatley I’ve not found any other place to get the files for this fix. Any ideas how I can locate the files? Alternatively, should the files still be on my Pi from when I ran it before, possibly? Last night I got errors when I tried to use this fix by skipping the line pulling Daphne down from GitHub, but I’m wondering that maybe I could install an older version of Daphne (one that works with this fix)? Or, as part of this am I in fact installing Daphne? Sorry for the questions…

You could try hypseus, it's in the experimental packages.

It offers far more flexibility in configuration over the original Daphne.

I installed and tried hypseus, it solved the problem! My DragonRise controller works well again. Thank you!

I have had a few people ping me about more complex Joystick setups with hypseus recently. So I have written a small helper utility to ease the +1 calculations and multiple joystick config gotchas.

I hope this proves useful.

In RetroPie, I suggest the CLI version (over ssh) would be the way to go.

2 joystick(s) found
Microsoft X-Box 360 pad:        Button: 001     - KEY_QUIT = SDLK_ESCAPE 0 001
Microsoft X-Box 360 pad:        Axis: 002       - KEY_DOWN = SDLK_DOWN 0 0 +002
DragonRise Inc. Generic:        Button: 106     - KEY_QUIT = SDLK_ESCAPE 0 106
DragonRise Inc. Generic:        Axis: 103       - KEY_DOWN = SDLK_DOWN 0 0 +103

There is also a GUI version for desktop users.

Should these build instructions still work? I got prompted for a username and password at the git clone... stage but even after supplying a github username and password I got told that password authentication is not supported.

It sounds like you are trying to clone from the "SSH" url, rather than the "HTTPS" url, of the repo. You don't need any auth on the HTTPS endpoint.

I'm pretty sure I did exactly this, I tried it several times to make sure I hadn't typed something wrong.

git clone https://github.com/grant2258/daphne-emu.git tmp/build/daphne

That particular repo by grant2258 hasn't existed for a long time:

Let me append to my previous answer.

...or the repo doesn't exist :)
