Maldita Castilla joypad support

hiulit

Ok, when I launch Maldita Castilla via terminal, I see this code:

GAMEPAD: 4 axis values (last) at 0x76289660
GAMEPAD: Enumerating 5
GAMEPAD: device name 8Bitdo NES30 GamePad
GAMEPAD: buttons - 16, axes - 8
GAMEPAD: 4 axis values (last) at 0x76289620
GAMEPAD: 4 axis values (last) at 0x76289600
GAMEPAD: 4 axis values (last) at 0x762895e0

So, it recognizes the gamepad, right? Shouldn't it be working then? :(

@hiulit

one would think, but as of yet no one knows. personally unless someone goes in to the code and changes something to have the game look for other inputs i don't think it will work for anyone who has more then one thing connected to the pi. or is using xboxdrv.

i hope, but im not holding my breath

hiulit

@ExarKunIv But I tried it with no keyboard, only the gamepad, and still, nothing :(
Would it be possible to change js0(or any other input) into input0 so Maldita Castilla can see it?

ExarKunIv

@hiulit

not that i know of.

what input is your conroller?

hiulit

@ExarKunIv I'm telling you this off the top of my head but I think i have:

input0 - don't know what it is
input1 - keyboard
js0- controller

And when I have the GPIO buttons as a virtual keyboard I think they are input2.

I'll tell you more specifically when I get home ;)

hiulit

This is what I get when I enter cat /proc/bus/input/devices.
I only have a usb keyboard and a bluetooth 8Bitdo gamepad.

What is input0?

@hiulit
Do you have a Logitech K750? I think both input0 and 1 are for the keyboard?

backstander

@hiulit
I can't find anything with Vendor 04f3

What brand keyboard do you have? I might recommend trying a different keyboard and see if that resolves your issues.

hiulit

@backstander I have a "Genius" keyboard, similar to this one https://www.amazon.es/Genius-31300725100-313-Teclado/dp/B018ID3V6U/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1491516948&sr=8-7&keywords=teclado+genius

And why would the keyboard need two different input?
Thanks!

hiulit

@backstander Could it have something to do with this?

The Raspberry Pi Model B is equipped with two USB2.0 ports. These are connected to the LAN9512 combo hub/Ethernet chip IC3, which is itself a USB device connected to the single upstream USB port on BCM2835.

From Raspberry Pi's offical USB documentation.

It seems like input0 is the "Raspberry Pi itself"?

Take a look at this H: Handlers=sysrq kbd leds event0 . Hmmm...

In the paíd version of maldita castilla ( Maldita Castilla Ex) you can set up and define controls to your liking withouth problems.

hiulit

@Nismo Does the paid version work with the Raspberry Pi?

@hiulit

It seems like input0 is the "Raspberry Pi itself"?

Hmmm..unless you have a unique configuration, I don't think that's what it is or do you have a USB hub plugged into your Pi?

Take a look at this H: Handlers=sysrq kbd leds event0. Hmmm...

I think kbd = keyboard and I'm assuming leds = LEDs?

To me it seams like the keyboard is taking up both inputs for some reason. Not sure why?

@Nismo Does the paid version work with the Raspberry Pi?

I am curious about this as well :-)
If more people supported them by purchasing the paid version, I think they would be more inclined to make another game for the RPi!

ExarKunIv

@backstander

i think you are right on that.
i plug in my logitech keyboard and i get the same thing with the LED

@hiulit Sorry I didn't see that, the free version it's compatible with a lot of devices, but the paid version it's only for steam and xbox. My bad.

Sorry for that and excuse me for the delay but i'm in hospital, and not very good.

Regards.

No worries! I hope you getting to feeling better really soon!

Nismo

@backstander I hope so... but my heart it's not very good, and i'm only 41 years old...
Not good news for me. I take a look at the forum with my smartphone from time to time.

They have to put on me a catheter, but I think I'll be in home next week. Thanks for your encouragement.

Speaking about the game, maldita castilla its a great game from a spanish guy, I'm spanish too. He has more good free games, all of them with retro style.

You can take a look at his games here: https://www.locomalito.com/es/index.php

@Nismo Oh my, so sorry to hear that.

Do take care, and I hope you get better soon. Our thoughts are with you - do let us know when you're back at home and recovering, and truth be told, just make the most of your time to rest as much as possible! :|

Nismo

@pjft
Thanks for your encouragement. I try to rest as much as possible, but you know the days are boring here...

Sorry for the offtopic guys I don't want to mess up the thread.

Thank you all guys.

@Nismo
Catheters aren't fun and hospitals can be very boring and slow to get back home. Recently I was in the hospital for something minor and so I wouldn't get bored of waiting, I was reading this forum on my smartphone as well. It helps the time go by but I was having RetroPie withdraws and couldn't wait to get home to play/tinker. Those are the times I wish I had a handheld RetroPie build!
