@chan the script works for libretro/retroarch emulators only. Then, yes, it works fine with lr-fba (and any of those that start with lr-).

chan

@meleu so if i change all the roms from fba to lr-fba i can update with your script. Correct?

i cannot wait to try!

i suppose that fba roms are valid for lr-fba...

meleu

@chan I'm not sure what "flavor" of fba you are talking when you say 'fba'. Do you mean pifba?

chan

@meleu i think the folder was fba. and the emu too...
When i pressed a button i was asked about using fba or lr-fba...i´m not usre right now, but, anyway, i need to change my roms to lr-fba and the use that emu instead of fba,pifba or whatever in order to use your script.

Did you include n64 too? just for testing in future!

meleu

@chan

Did you include n64 too?

Any RetroArch emulator is covered, but I think most people uses the standalone (non-libretro) Mupen64plus due to performance reasons.

chan

@meleu not yet, but im thinking on it. Pitty to not have such great tool as yours to configure it.
Will dive on how to configure when i solve the FBa first. Step by step hehe

meleu

@chan if you discover how to do it for Mupen64plus, please share with me. If it is as simple as editing a file, I can add it to my script.

Cheers.

chan

@meleu i didn´t dive a lot but i discover that there is a lr-mupen64plus
https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Nintendo-64
Could you add it easily?

i saw this too:
"lr-Mupen64plus and lr-GLupeN64 utilise RetroArch configurations
Add custom retroarch controls to the retroarch.cfg file in
/opt/retropie/configs/n64/retroarch.cfg"

For sure that i could be a kindergarden game for an expert like you :)

meleu

@chan did you read this post of mine above? :-)

chan

@meleu lol forgive me xD
i will deep a little. hehe

chan

@meleu nice job. it works with roms in arcade folder and using your script.
The only thing is if u can say me how to econfigure buttons for all roms cause the buttons are really moved :p

meleu

@chan this is the easiest way:

chan

@meleu impo men.
i´m into quick menu controls and i cannot change "user 1 burron A:" or anything
im only able to change controls in other menu. Under settings - INPUT - Input User 1 Binds

do u know why i am not able to do it?

meleu

@chan what exactly do you mean with "I cannot change"?

You press left/right on the d-pad when the "user 1 button a" is active and nothing happens?

chan

nope, it seems freeze.
And up in that menu, it appears the USB controller d PAd, but not the THT xxx (who is the joystick) so when i try to find it, im only able to see the Nintendo Retropad and the super nintendo buffalo retropad, but not the THT when i navigate with left and right (and none appears too).

Im able to see the THT in the menu of input that i referred in the other post
Under settings - INPUT - Input User 1 Binds

Is there a "manual" map in order to change it with a keyboard? where it supose to be that config file? only for fba

chan

@meleu ??
