Installed, same issue. So I dunno then.

I have reset EmulationStation input configuration (Retropie Setup -> Configuration / tools -> emulationstation -> Clear / Reset Emulation Station input configuration), after all previous actions and everything now works as after fresh install.

Well m assuming you are referring to street fighter games. Pick 6 button(snes layout) or modern for these games. 8 button is specifically for an certain arcade panel layout. Classic layout is for 99% of other games that are wrong with this setup.

Well i could hack code into mame2003-plus to read it thats not a good global solution though so ill add it to my todo list which isint too long atm!

@BJRetro said in Show Control Panel Layout before game starts in RetroPie, just like Arcade1UP does.: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/20030/controller-info-overlay-in-the-game @BJRetro I actually went this route and it works. I use 2 copies of my game specific bezels...one with a transparent background (gameplay) and one with the black background with controls. This makes the transition seamless. However, there are 2 things that make it non-optimal: 1: Requires the use of a hotkey combination to change overlays. A single button solution would be preferred. 2. The game is not paused when you display the controls bezel. I was thinking of adding a 'pause_toggle' command before the 'overlay_next' command but haven't found any instances of success. See this thread as an example: https://forums.libretro.com/t/overlay-format-documentation/230

Based on the info @rion dug out, I'd say it's likely not compatible with RetroPie (and a bit overpriced in my opinion).

@cyperghost i will try it out ... thx for helping so fast

Have you tried to get into RA's input controls and select P3's controller as your 2nd controller ? Or add an override for the game (see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/#custom-retroarch-override-examples) with input_player1_joypad_index = 0 input_player3_joypad_index = 1

@fredbuilder This was discussed earlier in this thread, but via direct editing of the config file. Thanks for the addition about the GUI and for the video. Nice handheld. 🤩

I installed adv-meme and change the .rc like the wiki said and now my trackball is working :) I'm pretty happy now

@bogus You can save the relevant part from the configs for the overlay part, they should be easy to re-apply - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Configuration-Editor/#advanced-configuration

@totallyice Please re-read my previous message. Your system is stuck in a reboot loop so you're not going to be able to access the command line to make any modifications to fix the problem. In order to fix this error, you'll need to delete/disable the Controlblock service, but you'll either need a Linux computer to read the card's Linux partition (won't work from Windows/macOS) or you can try booting into 'safe mode' on your PI system to have a command line to make modifications. See https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/672/a-stop-job-is-running-for-lsb-controlblockservice-init-script/13.

I'm having the same problem where none of my controllers are working in game, however, I know what you're talking about, as I had that same thing (with the having to basically hold all the buttons to get it to open the remap screen) happen to me. Unfortunately, I have no idea what caused it, and I was only able to fix it by doing a clean install. If it's any consolation, since the install I haven't had that problem (just my current one where my controllers aren't working in game)

Did you use the official 4.2 image from the site? Did you read about the info you should post? It's not requested just for the craic. Help us to help you...

@Maynard your question indicates that you didn't map the core specific button configs usinf the core input remapping method. Reset the changes you made and remap using that method. I think it'll make you happy. ;-)

@obsidianspider the 5 inch hdmi display 800x480 xpt2046 touch controller, latest retropie, and pi3

It could be your joystick is oriented wrong plug the usb in windows and do a joystick test on there to confirm
