The only remap I saw was for saves. Here is my runcommand.log file:
https://pastebin.com/7v67SJe0

the last line of the file (shown below) repeats well over a thousand times but I cut almost all of them out of the log file i put on pastebin for sanity's sake.
[libretro INFO] [MAME 2010] 'maincpu' (FFA649F0)[libretro INFO] [MAME 2010] (no context): unmapped program memory word write to 01D01070 = 0000 & FFFF

Thanks!

@Sabaro my problem.... I set the cable wrong
1 2 3 4. 4321.

@Lugzyboy82

it should happend automaticly, once you configure the joysticks in emulationstation.
i suggest you start by testing using jstest command, to see if the joysticks is reconized as gamepads or if it still thinks it is a keyboard.

@Yornav No for Retroarch cores, as far as I know. Maybe for some version of advancemame, but I have not look at it. They will work if you compile the latest standard mame, but it will run very slowly on the Raspberry.

there is an option to select analog or digital in mame2003+ as it supports analog 2003 doesnt just go to your options and change you controller setting to digital.

it sin options->control mapping change it to digital and it will work for snes pads and arcade sticks ect with having to set all the inputs. The majority of people want real analog controls when available so thats the default.

I have same problem but not with all games, some games when I press player 1 fire button on a co-op game it works on the second player? checked the dragon encoders and all wired exactly the same on both encoders?

@grant2258 Aliexpress has cheap prices, if you have patience waiting for them to arrive..lol..I have bought some stuff from there for bartop I am in the process of building, but have heard mixed reviews regarding their electronics. My purchases weren't electronic related (speakers..power cord for my amp..and some purchases for my woman). Just wanted to comment about the long waits..haha.

@mitu no, i did not...

Do you mean that you needed to firmly press the USB cable into the connector to solve the issue?

Anyway, glad to hear that things are working for you now!

@Freakadude for lr-mame2003 or lr-fbalpha, the default :) ie:

that should mean that capcom fighting games have the 'snes sf2 layout' which is pretty standard.

@demost Have you looked into @Floob and his Attract Mode Retropie image?

Obvs has no bundled rooms, but has Attract Mode as its main front-end rather than ES?

That should give you a more Hyperspin feel, no?

@Loren said in 2 questions.:

How do I completely remove the powerblock software (per say) from retropie. I built a SNES with one, but then flashed my image to another card for a different build and I don't need/want it on that build. Is there any way this can be done?

You can find instructions for uninstalling the PowerBlock driver at https://github.com/petrockblog/PowerBlock#uninstalling-the-service-andor-the-binary.

@barbudreadmon Thanks, that sounds great. I'll test it today or in the next days. My Pi is doing the update from source right now, but I don't know yet if I'll have the time to test it later today.

AFAIK there should be no need of different mouse devices for trackball/spinner/lightgun, because they all use the same /dev/input/event… devices. (Multiple mouse devices may be needed for games with multiple mouse-type devices, though.)

Trackballs and lightguns will use both axes of a mouse device, whereas spinners will use only one axis per spinner. For two spinners, that may be X and Y of a single mouse device if they are connected that way. Others, like the USB adapters that come with the SpinTrak spinners, will map them as separate mouse devices and only use their X axes.

https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Spinners,-Trackballs,-Lightguns,-and-other-Mouse-Devices/ describes the different kinds of axis mappings in great detail.
