    I was wondering how I remap Wolfenstein for a SFC30 controller, when I plug in a original SNES controller it works but the buttons are completely wrong and the SFC30 does nothing.

    Select + X on the SFC30/SNES controller doens't open the retroarch menu it also seem impossible on a keyboard.

    I found this guide here but these files don't seem to exist. LINK

    Pi Model: PI3
    Power Supply used: 5V 2,5A
    RetroPie Version: 4.1
    Built From: Multiboot NOOBS
    Controller used: SFC30, SNESPAD, PS3
    Emulator: WOLF4SDL-GT-V14

      @denisuu The RetroArch menu won't come up no matter what buttons you press as this is not a RetroArch (libretro) core. I'm not familiar with this port but there is most likely a config file that would need to be edited manually.

        I installed the full (non shareware) version and these seem to be all the files, none of which are editable I think.

        audiot.wl6
        catalog.exe

        order.frm
        vgadict.wl6
        vgagraph.wl6
        vgahead.wl6
        wolf3d.exe

          @denisuu The tutorial refers to editing the source code, not the game files - that page should refer to a previous tutorial.

          It is possible to do this using the RetroPie Setup script. From a terminal or via SSH, run the following commands:

          cd RetroPie-Setup/
          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl depends
          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl sources
          

          Now edit the file wl_play.cpp in the source code with the command:

          sudo nano tmp/build/wolf4sdl/wl_play.cpp
          

          You need to edit lines 61 to 63. To find these, you can press CTRL+w+t and enter 61 at the Enter line number, column number: prompt. Make your changes to the file as advised in the tutorial in your op and save.

          To build and install wolf4sdl, run the following commands:

          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl get_opts
          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl get_bins
          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl build
          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl install
          

          Assuming you have already installed wolf4sdl from binary and added game data, you can now test your key bindings.

          Once you're happy, you can remove the build data with the command:

          sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl clean

            First of all thanks for taking the time! It's highly appreciated!

            So we are talking about these 2 lines right?

            #else
            bt_attack, bt_strafe, bt_use, bt_run, bt_strafeleft, bt_straferight, bt_esc, bt_pause,
            bt_prevweapon, bt_nextweapon, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton,

            So lets say I want to map to these buttons on the retropad (SFC30):

            bt_attack = A (btn = "0")
            bt_strafe = NONE
            bt_use = B (btn = "1")
            bt_run = X (btn = "3")
            bt_strafeleft = L (btn = "6")
            bt_straferight = R (btn = "7")
            bt_esc = START (btn = "11")
            bt_pause = SELECT (btn = "10")
            bt_prevweapon = NONE
            bt_nextweapon = Y (btn = "4")

            Do I just edit like this?

            #else
            bt_attack "0" , bt_strafe, bt_use "1", bt_run "3", bt_strafeleft "6", bt_straferight "7", bt_esc "11", bt_pause "10",
            bt_prevweapon, bt_nextweapon "4", bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton,

            Sorry for my ignorance but this is completely new for me :)

                @denisuu The button numbers in the tutorial are there for guidance and shouldn't be included in the amended code.

                The code to be changed is an array where button 0 on your controller is mapped to the first action bt_attack, button 1 to bt_strafe, button 2 to bt_use and so on.

                Using your suggested configuration above, you can try the following:

                #else
                bt_attack bt_use bt_nobutton bt_run bt_nextweapon bt_nobutton bt_strafeleft bt_straferight bt_nobutton bt_nobutton bt_pause bt_esc bt_nobutton bt_nobutton bt_nobutton bt_nobutton

                  Sorry I didn't respond for a while, I don't get any error's anymore but changing those lines doen't change anything to the controls :( I put them exactly like you told me. I even tried changing changing line 63 to 66. It stays the same.

                  Also for some reason as soon as the gamecon driver (for the SNESpad) are installed it only accepts the SNES controller and not my wireless 8bitdo SFC30. Is there a way to make it accept all controllers?

                    @denisuu Sorry, my mistake - there should be commas between each action. Also, the array may need to be over 2 lines, each containing 8 actions.

                    Could you try the following:

                    #else
                    bt_attack, bt_use, bt_nobutton, bt_run, bt_nextweapon, bt_nobutton, bt_strafeleft, bt_straferight,
                    bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_pause, bt_esc, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton, bt_nobutton,

                      @dudleydes I already did it like that, this is how it looks. If I do it without comma's it doesn't even want to build :)

                      alt text

                      Just to be sure, I just do install from binary then follow all your steps and try by launching from emulationstation right?

                        Have you considered an external mapping option? I use xboxdrv and have put a guide together here. If it's something you're interested in, I'll post my controller map for Wolf4sdl as a reference.

                          @mediamogul Wow that's looks like a lot of work, but in the end I can use that for Quake I & III , Duke3d and other keyboard games without too much hassle right?

                          I actually hooked up a xbox 360 controller on to Wolf3d and saw all buttons are pressent, just not on the right possition.

                            Sure. I use it for all those games. There's admittedly a learning curve involved, but once you've made a few maps, it gets to be routine. Plus, you can recycle maps as beginning points for new ones so that you're not starting from scratch all the time.

                              No, everything should be done the command line using the retropie_packages.sh script detailed in my earlier post.

                              Installing from binary will install the pre-built binary with the default mappings. What we are trying to do is amend the source code and then build Wolf4SDL from source.

                                I followed those instructions but I only end up with files in "/opt/retropie/ports/wolf4sdl" but there is no wolf4sdl folder under: "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports"

                                That's why I asked if I should install though the retro pie setup first . I just tried removing everything again and follow your instructions but again the actual game is missing.

                                  @denisuu Apologies, I'm getting my wires crossed.

                                  If you haven't already installed Wolf4SDL from binary, then you can set up the launch script and create a folder for game data with the command:

                                  sudo ./retropie_packages.sh wolf4sdl configure

                                    I followed all your steps and now the game builds, installs and creates the files.

                                    When I boot it up the game controls haven't changed at all :( Maybe I should look into the advanced remapping posted by Mediamongul.

                                      I'm trying to follow your steps but I'm ending up with same result as OP, key mapping didn't changed. Sorry for reviving old topick. I really want to correct that as on 8bitdo sf30 pro, use function is under little home button. I followed your instructions and all worked no error but key binding didn't changed. Would you mind helping me? Thanks

                                        @blackegg13 tbh I cannot recall hearing of any other user who has managed to get this remapping process for Wolf4SDL to work. I may have just been lucky with my PS3 controller.

                                        To remap my controller for the other ports (Doom, Duke Nukem, Quake), I use xboxdrv. I suggest you take a look at doing likewise. More info can be found at: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Universal-Controller-Calibration-&-Mapping-Using-xboxdrv/

                                        If it's helpful, here is my xboxdrv config file for the Rise of the Triad port.
