The quick menu does not let me remap the controls, but the retroarch menu does. There is one problem with that, though: it uses the right analog as the c-pad for the n64, and there is nothing that the d-pad in retroarch does.

@fraggle200 said in Cabinet Control Panel not detected on new clean image, via Pi2Jamma.: @mitu I installed Uinput by following a few links for the install but this method ultimately got me installed, just as a precaution it wasn't already there. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=221622 That's not needed, since PikeyD doesn't look like it uses python. There's - similarly - a Linux kernel module named uinput, that I think it's used, but it's loaded by default on a RetroPIe image (you can check /etc/modules).

From what I understand, the version of DraStic that we have access to is just a generic ARM build and isn't well optimized. It works ok on previous pi models under the legacy Vc4 drivers, but using fkms on the pi 4 it seems to have issues.

@Shortgaze ps3 controllers are good, windows drivers used to be hard to install. My problem with arc arena, I tried the usual things including HLE bios but I didnt get a full reset for it to work because of autoload. I didn't think of deleting the config, doing so changed the default system directory to the content folder so no BIOS was found and so it loaded the HLE and worked. System Directory was the first setting I changed back, and the controller stopped working when it loaded the SCPH bios again. Anyways thanks.

We don't support 3rd party images, as explained in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Ask the author of the image or use the image distributed by the RetroPie project from retropie.org.uk/download.

@retropieuser555 I notice in your picture that the User 1 Device Type is set to Sinclair 1 Joystick. I tested this setting and Hen-House Harry moves to the left if I press the B button and to the right if I press the X or Y button even though I have nothing mapped to those buttons. Could you try selecting the User 1 Device Type to the Cursor or Kempston joystick?

Well I found a sollution from 2016 that worked for me, in this example it´s the snes that made trouble but it works for other emulators too BuZz ADMINISTRATORS 24 Aug 2016, 17:19 @Robust Please try the following. From a terminal please do rm /opt/retropie/configs/snes/retroarch.cfg or delete the file over windows networking Go to Emulation Station -> RetroPie and do Update RetroPie-Setup script Go to Manage Packages -> Main section > lr-snes9x-next - and choose "Update from binary" and all should be good.

@mitu I redid the controls again for the "v" key (from everything I can tell this is not used elsewhere). This time I used the in game menu with the tab key. Still the right direction does not work. Also I have several existing directional buttons mapped to keys that are used for other functions but all of those keys are functioning normally.

@bengalsfan88 said in Help with mapping 4 start buttons for Galaga/Ms. PacMan: I'll be sure to make a post when the project is complete and the cabinet is restored to her former glory! I'd like to see that, thank you !

@mariobros_54 As @mitu says. ES only displays a system that has roms in its rom directory.

ive hit this as well and was confused. i see auto stuff and explicit buttons, so its confusing. I checked the input bindings and saw some map to auto and some map to explicit buttons, so i'm assuming this means it depends on the input settings--this mostly works but ive found a few situations where it isn't working, so im not sure.

gotcha. let me refresh ans use that image. thanks for the feedback.

@mitu i can't

@mitu Actually, I think I did update it and that caused some of the issues again with it not working properly. It's working well enough as is so I'm a little leery of messing with it at this point. I don't have any games that require thumbstick or trigger input so I'm happy enough with the good D-pad.

@mitu sorry about that it's Retropie v.4.4 with emulation station 2.7.5

For the SF30 Pro controller enable it for Switch and it will work cause i did that and i got everything working. As for the other controllers i have never used them so i am not able to help out with that.

@bdk said in Retropie 4.4 Controller Issues - Xin-Mo & Multiple Controllers: @bdk said in Retropie 4.4 Controller Issues - Xin-Mo & Multiple Controllers: Hello All, I am having a heck of time trying to keep my controller configs set on Retropie 4.4. I have a bar-top arcade that has two Xin-Mo controllers. Each Joystick has 6 buttons 1 joystick player 1(start) Coin (select) exit menu mode play In Retropie 4.3 this all worked great. This button configuration worked for all emulators I have atari , dreamcast, nin, sega, arcade etc... What is happening now is the controller will work for a few correctly meaning I can move up and down get into games and out of the emulators. At some point it just stops working and I can not get out of the emulators. I can still move up and down and buttons to get into emulators seem to work but they fail to get me out of emulator. Another thing I noticed it seems as soon as I plug in my Logitech Gamepad F310 that just works right out of the box with everything it starts to mess up the arcade sticks. It seems I can only have 2 joysticks configured. I have tried a lot of the stuff people have said to do on forums. This is what I have done. Add this line to cmdline.txt "usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040" Used multiple - Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade.cfg & Xin-MoXin-MoDualArcade.cfg Configured my own Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade.cfg & Xin-MoXin-MoDualArcade.cfg I am currently evaluating this posting. I am concerned to do any of this since this is an old article and we are on Stretch now. http://ithink.ch/blog/2013/09/08/patching_the_linux_kernel_to_install_the_xin-mo_dual_arcade_driver_on_a_raspberry_pi.html Is anyone else having issues like this? Have you been able to get past them? Specs Retropie 4.4 Pi 3b+ Thanks in advance! BDK Update 5/14/2018 - I finally had a chance to really look at this issue and the problem looks like it has to do with RetroArch not saving Userbinds 3-5 . I can save the configs for the 1st two input binds but nothing after that. So I am looking into why I can not save bind 3 on. ***Update 5/17/2018 - Now Working Boy this has been tricky but I learned a lot about Retropie trying to figure this out. A little silver lining. I think I got it fixed. This is what I did. At some point I must of updated my OS that removed the line in the cmdline.txt on the root of the SD card- usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040. I re-added the line Wipped out emulation station information from the cli cmd line gui tool Rebooted Reconfigured joysticks and they worked. Back up image Then started loading all my packages I checked here and there still worked This is where I think it broke. I updated the retropie and the base OS and when rebooted my arcade joystick 2 was #1 and emulation station recofig would not work and hot keys did not work. Went into Retro Arch and noticed a few things. I thought I lost the cmdline.txt line that I mentioned in the begging but I did not, it was still there. The file did update though because I know I had another configuration in there that is no longer in that file but that was not what broke my controller. I did the following. I went to RetroArch configuration. Menu Toggle Gamepad combo was set to "start-Select" which I had it to none before. - I changed it back to "none" Save Configuration on exit was not set to yes it was now set to NO - I set it back to "Yes" My inputs where all messed up. Joystick 2 was 1 and GPIO was 1 and 3. I set Joystick 1 to 1 and save config, Set Joystick 2 to 2 saved and then set GPIO to 3. as a side note my keyboard worked even though it did not show up as a controller. I saved and rebooted and everything now seems to be working. I can get into games and my hot keys are working. I am doing a backup now. Once it is done I plan to make sure Keyboard is configured and my Logitech F3 joypad is working. Since this is an Arcade cabinet I am more concerned about Xin-Mo.

If you want a more stable control scheme than using a zero delay over USB (ive always found those things to be really unreliable), you can try a software package from Adafruit called RETROGAME. It's a background application that converts gpio pins to keyboard strokes, it's very stable and reliable, and best part is that it requires no additional hardware. All you need to do is set each GPIO pin to your desired keystroke and connect each button to GPIO and common ground then setup your keyboard "controller" by pressing start in emulationstation and going to controller setup. Details here if you're interested. https://learn.adafruit.com/retro-gaming-with-raspberry-pi/adding-controls-software

@RetroSavior Very good to know. Thank you.
