          Hi @ all =)

          I got a problem with my controller config...I use my 2 usb gamepads (dev/input/js0, js1) for both inputs in my config file....when i manually start the .uae by UAE4ARM's GUI everything work fine but when I generate a template file input is always set to Nub for mouse :(

          I've no idea what the problem is?!

              There's already a way to do this using .uae and WHDLoad set ups.. there's a Facebook page dedicated to it and it works absolutely fantastic, only issue is you have to have an older uaearm v4.0 instead if 5.9 because there is a bug that wont apply the joysticks settings from a .uae file however v4 is perfect, I notified email writer but nothing come back as well.

              Check the FB page out.

                  I have set my emulationstation to run amiga game directly, with instruction found in this post! that very nice!

                  Now the game start, but have to go in the menu and set "USB gamepad" to my port 1 EACH time i start a game to be able to use my joystick..

                  Is there any way to have my "USB gamepad" set to port 1 by default? (so i will not have to setup my joystick on port 1 EACH time 1 start a game)

                  Thanks!

                    I finally found the answer by myself (after searching all day long!).. So, i have modified the "template.uae" file before executing the python script and now every game start with my gamepad enabled.

                      @Ramses, that's nice. Can you post the changes you've made? That way others can learn from what you've done.

                      If tetris has thought me anything, it's that errors pile up and that accomplishments dissappear.

                        Sure!

                        First, i have follow the instruction from this link: [http://blog.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/launch-amiga-games-from-retropie-menu/](link url)

                        But i have modified the "template.uae" file, and added those line at the end of the file:

                        joyport1=joy1
                        joyport1autofire=none
                        joyport1mode=djoy
                        joyportfriendlyname1=Xbox Gamepad (userspace driver)
                        joyportname1=JOY1

                        Thats all!

                        After is modified just run the python script (adflist2uae) like is described in the link and all game will have the joystick enabled by default on port 1
