Guide: Advanced Controller Mappings

I suppose you could put the name as the first line of a text file and reference it as
$jsnamewith something like:jsname=`sed '1q;d' /path/to/text/file.txt`However, using that method, you'd still have to have that line in your script, so it's not any easier than just including the name to begin with. I really haven't explored this sort of thing before, so there's probably quite a few better ways and definitely more knowledgeable people to ask.

`sed '1q;d'
Ok ... I got it working.
This file is in /roms/pc/stick_id
#!/bin/bash STICKID=usb-Sony_Interactive_Entertainment_Wireless_Controller-if03-event-joystickHere I am reading that variable and all of my .sh game files access that config file for the joystick id. Now I only need to change the id name in one place.

so i got time to see what other codes come up when i start up stragus
here is my mouse mapping for my 8bit do and the left button press

Here is a discussion Pi5 testing page -
When you're using the mouse-mapped controller, is your real mouse still connected? It could be that it's pulling focus in some way.
-
i did think of that, so all my testing is one at a time with only that device plugged in.

The only thing left I can think of is that the software may not be seeing the virtual mouse as being a real mouse in a similar way that RetroArch won't see the virtual keyboard without a udev rule. I would try searching for a similar rule that can be applied to the virtual mouse and see if that might make a difference.
-
ok i'll poke around and see if i can find anything.

found this, just will need more time to get a handle on it, way above my pay gradehttp://www.embeddedlinux.org.cn/EssentialLinuxDeviceDrivers/final/ch07lev1sec1.html

@mediamogul Hi mediamogul
I'm just in the process of changing my Amiga setup, so that xboxdrv mimics the default keys for UAE4ARM and amiberry (rather than it mimic the DragonRise joysticks).
My current setup works perfectly, but the reason I'm doing this is so that I can get to the menu and exit without using the keyboard at all.
However, I can't seem to get any keys to work in game with UAE4ARM. I've tested UAE4ARM with and without xboxdrv operating and pressing every key on the keyboard does nothing (except F12 which definitely works).
I know you've got your Logitech F710 mimicking the keys. Could I please ask whether you did anything special to get the keys to work in game? I've got individual .uae files for each game. Is there anything in the .uae file that I should have or change? An example .uae appears below:

Note: I've set up my Player 1 joystick in Retroarch's general menu so that the button formation is A, B, X and Y (most like the XBox 360 Controller formation). However, Retroarch and lr-fbalpha mimic the SNES Controller. With the SNES Controller, Button Y is the fire button and Button B is the jump button. So that the first button (Button A) on my DragonRise controller is the "fire" button, enter core input remapping, quick menu, controls and change the "fire" button from Y to A for both Players 1 and 2. Remember to "Save Core Remap". This will mean that the "fire" button (A) and the "jump" button (B) are now next to each other - no stretching of fingers required. (Also, now there is no need for a separate rom config file in roms folder). ### Player1_4Way_FBA and Player2_4Way_FBA map Joysticks 1 and 2 with four way restriction for use with libretro emulators other than lr-mame2003. The keyboard mappings below are the same keys that are mapped for Users 1 and 2 in Retroarch. ### For Player 1, the Select (back) button will now start Player 1 and the Start key will now start Player 2; holding down the Select button and pressing the Start button will exit the emulator. For Player 2, Select and Start do nothing. For Player 3, Select is Coin 1 and Start will start Player 3. Hold down Select and press Start will exit. For Player 4, Select is Coin 2 and Start will start Player 4 and Player 3. Holding down both will exit the emulator.

@spud11
I think it'skey_for_menu=293 key_for_quit=27But what i did was to map F12 (default open GUI key) to my Guide Button on my F710 and Guide+X is Q (default Quit when the GUI is open). So when i press Guide i get the GUI, when i hold Guide and press X, the Menu Pops up for a second and then quits Amiberry.

@mediamogul and @EctoOne Thanks to both of you.
But with xboxdrv am I just able to map one key alone eg the escape key?
At the moment, I'm finding none of the keys work with UAE4ARM/xboxdrv (eg up/down/left/right won't work with or without xboxdrv). So can I just map
--ui-buttonmap back+start=KEY_ESCand not worry about mapping any of the other keys? Or do I have to map everything in which case I seem to be having a problem with UAE4ARM? With all my other keyboard mappings eg for lr-mame2003, I've mapped every key I need and thought that's what had to be done in every case.Thanks.
-
So can I just map
--ui-buttonmap back+start=KEY_ESCand not worry about mapping any of the other keys?If the goal is to have 'select+start' quit immediately, then you'll need set
key_for_quit=27in whatever.uaefile you're using for Amiberry (UAE4ARM doesn't have this ability) and then use xboxdrv to make the 'select+start' combination with--ui-buttonmap back+start=KEY_ESC. -
@mediamogul Thanks.
So I've switched to amiberry, inserted
key_for_quit=27in the relevant .uae and added--ui-buttonmap back+start=KEY_ESCto the command as so:sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \ --silent \ --detach-kernel-driver \ --deadzone=4000 \ --deadzone-trigger 15% \ --force-feedback \ --mimic-xpad \ --trigger-as-button \ --ui-buttonmap lb=void,rb=void,tl=void,tr=void,guide=void,lt=void,rt=void \ --evdev /dev/input/by-path/platform-3f980000.usb-usb-0:1.3.3:1.0-event-joystick \ --device-name "Player_1" \ --evdev-absmap ABS_X=y1,ABS_Y=x1 \ --evdev-keymap BTN_TRIGGER=x,BTN_THUMB=y,BTN_THUMB2=a,BTN_PINKIE=b,BTN_BASE3=back,BTN_BASE6=start \ --ui-buttonmap back+start=KEY_ESCYou will see that I haven't mapped any other keys at this stage. However, both pressing the escape on the keyboard or pressing both buttons back and start will exit the game completely. So that now definitely works. Thanks.
However, nothing else works. I have tried without loading xboxdrv ie just trying to use the keyboard "in game" but again it's as though amiberry isn't recognising any keys, other than the escape. I understand the default keys for amiberry are the same as for UAE4ARM and are hardcoded as follows:
lctrl - joy 1/mouse 1 (button X in gui)
lalt - joy 2/mouse 2 (button Y in gui)
lshift - joy 1 autofire (button A in gui)
z - mouse 1 (button B in gui)
5 - switch input between mouse/joystick
arrow keys - up / down / left / rightThese keys should just work in game if xboxdrv isn't loaded, shouldn't they? I just can't seem to get any of them to work with or without loading xboxdrv. Could it be that the ports being mapped to my DragonRise joysticks are a problem? Or do I need to map all other keys in the .uae?
-
I've never had any luck key-mapping joystick controls to any of the variants of UAE4ALL. As I understand it, the Amiberry developer is looking into the issue, but I'm not sure about the extent of the problem. Instead, I lean into the skid on this one and just map my controller to be seen as a standard XBox 360 controller that can then be selected from the pull-down menu in the 'Input' settings of the software. The only changes I make are to map a toggle that allows me to switch the left joystick and A/B buttons to mouse control, a combination to open the menu, and a combination for the quit function, as you've now done.
-
@mediamogul Thanks. I won't bother trying to map all keys as that clearly isn't working.
I've now tested the code a bit more. If I have the following extracts in runcommand-onstart, xboxdrv won't start:

--ui-buttonmap back+start=KEY_ESCline. Without it, xboxdrv works as per normal.Output of runcommand.log for the above is:

I'm not sure why that is the case but that might be what's causing xboxdrv not to start up when using runcommand-onstart which basically starts both joysticks automatically using the&in between.The only difference between my "normal" xboxdrv code and this is that one line of code relating to the escape button. Without it, xboxdrv works perfectly from runcommand-onstart.

It's formatted correctly. the only thing I can guess is that unwanted characters are being introduced from your text editor. What are you using to edit the script?

@spud11 you still have uae4arm in your onstart file. If you're using amiberry now you need to replace it with amiberry.
Edit: I just looked at my script and i'm suprised that it worked with uae4arm. In my script it says that you need to call the system not the software.
Thats why i didn't had that problem when i made the official change to amiberry because i had setamigainstead ofuae4armoramiberry.### Execute the driver with the configuration you need # $1 is the name of the emulation, not the name of the software used # it is intellivision not jzintv case $1 in amiga) $xboxkill joycommand="$LogiF710 $amiga &" eval $joycommand ;; esac -
@EctoOne and @mediamogul Oh cripes. That was silly of me. Thank you both. I'm at work at the moment, but once home will replace uae4arm with amiberry in the runcommand-onstart and then see what happens.
Also, I haven't had any problems with the line break issue for some time now, because I've got the editor now set to show 'LF' after each return so I don't think it will be that but will look at it again if the above doesn't work.

@mediamogul and @EctoOne
Brilliant! All good now. The change from uae4arm to amiberry-a1200 in the runcommand-onstart fixed the problem. Also, I realised I'd already added
button_for_quit=8in the .uae so pressing my back button automatically led to it exiting. I've replaced that withbutton_for_quit=-1and I've got thekey_for_quit=27in there too so all is working as it should with back+start now exiting the game.Thank you!
