Cant stop N64 emulator with NES30 Pro

daeks

Hi all,

I have installed latest version of retropi on my PI3 and connected a NES30Pro with Firmware 1.7.1 to the system. Anyhow, I can't stop the emulator by pressing SELECT+START. I haven't changed anything. Disabled the 8bit hack in the bluetooth settings. Can someone help me?

We don't know what emulator you're using or what your setup is. Please provide as much info as possible so people here can help.

@daeks mupen64plus is not a Libretro emulator so the normal retroarch start and select exit doesn't apply. You can specify these though, but you'll have to follow the guide on the wiki here https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Nintendo-64 in order to configure it. Or use the lr-mupen64 emulator instead.

thx for your help - I have already read the article but as far as I have understood it, it should already work. Could you point me into the right direction what to do to get it enabled?

@daeks you need to enable the hot keys in the Mupen config file and pick the buttons relative to your controller (so whatever select and start are)

daeks

my autoconf.cfg is set to:

this file can be used to enable/disable retropie autoconfiguration features

8bitdo_hack = "0"
es_swap_a_b = "0"
disable = "0"
mupen64plus_audio = "1"
mupen64plus_compatibility_check = "1"
mupen64plus_hotkeys = "1"

and in the mupen64plus.cfg the buttons are mentioned:

Joy Mapping Stop = "J1B10/B11"

B10 = select
B11 = start

I also tried to change J1B10 to B10, but it gets overwritten everytime

Ok, I figured it out... looks like a bug. With the setting mupen64plus_hotkeys = "1" the mupen64plus.cfg gets overwritten everytime with:

Joy Mapping Stop = "J1B10/B11"

but the joystick is logged as device = 0

device = 0
name = "8Bitdo NES30 Pro"

Disabling mupen64plus_hotkeys and changing "J1B10/B11" to "J0B10/B11" results in a working select+start exit. So the big question is, which J1 is written for the device 0 into the config.

@daeks Interesting. I missed that line in your config (must've skim read past it) but it kinda makes sense. No idea why it was forcing the hotkeys to js1 though when you only had the 8bitdo connected as js0. I don't remember my config being picky like that when I setup my n64 to USB adapter for glupen
