      @mitu thanks once more for your response.
      The only stand-alone emulator that i am using is Amiberry, all the others are lr-ports.
      In some way i am forced to use only lr-ports, because i am addicted to retro-achievements :)

      In my first year of RetroPie i used two PS3-SixAxxis Pads, because i allready had them. They have nor umble at all, so the topic was not relevant for me.

      Since 2013 i am using 8BitDo SN30Pro-Pads constantly.
      I started 100s of PSX- and -DC Games over the years, but these pads never rumbled at all.
      Since yesterday, "Tokyo Extreme Racer 1" for the DC brings the pad on fire :D
      But it is the only game doing this.

      My guess: these Pads are able to rumble (everyone knows that) but seems highly incompatible to RA-FF-Functions.
      With a Ratio of 1:500 it works ;D
      I could imagine that as soon as i buy a more popular pad (XBOX, Switch, ...) it will rumble all the time.

      @mitu Will do - but will be later - am not currently home.

      However - before I left - I did copy in a quick test - atari 2600 roms and bios.

      Seems to run fine.

      @mitu My apologies for not reading through that read first post. Nevertheless the problem was exactly what you said. I made sure that everything on the back of those little controller boards was plugged in exactly the same on both sides now the only problem is the joystick orientation has to be flipped around because it is reading backwards should be good. Thank you for your help I appreciate it.

      @hopwon said in P2 Controls stopped being recognised. Ultimarc UIO:

      I've been using retroarch for a few years now and have never had to edit the P2 controls.

      If you're using a gamepad, then you don't have to.

      It turns out the issue was between the controller and the chair.

      I'm posting my resolution here in case someone else ends up with the same issue and goes looking...

      I miswired the controller (it came with no documentation), but I came across this blog post (https://cy-822b.blogspot.com/2016/08/the-cy-822b-usb-led-joystick-controller.html) that showed this image:
      c0fb63ff-f849-4c20-b512-ae2dd514b54c-image.png

      The controller board looks like:
      856a91fc-99f3-4ced-b08c-acd40ff39054-image.png

      The buttons have a 2-pin connector on them so I figured the connected to the lower edge of the image above. But the connection actually happens in the button housing and the 3-pin connector is more than just for the LED, it also contains the switch wiring. So the 2-pin connector connects into the button housing and the 3-pin wire from the housing connects into the controller board.

      I went back to the original Amazon page and found that there are some pictures that describe the wiring, but not terribly clearly:
      cd4a53c7-a851-42b4-875b-919802fd6439-image.png

      In the end all on me. I hope this helps someone else in the future.

      Cheers,

      Steve

      @windg

      Thank-you for sharing this information. What is the path so that it changes globally? I can find these configurations in a few different places...

      The path I think it is :

      /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig

      Yes this the path for the file, this is what i change too.

      @pinokiooo do you mean to "double click" the input combo or using 2 controller devices as a combo?

      @iandaemon

      Thanks for the response, It was mainly Amiga games, which mostly are two or three buttons anyway, but if I wanted to so SNES games, then the start and select are needed. Is there a config file that accept an input as two buttons, such as Start+A = Select?

      @jasonmadeapie How do you change the controls ? When you open the controls menu (for P1), you have on the left the button on your RetroPad (your controller) and on the right the emulated buttons. Use Left/Right to change the values on the right, cycling between the possible buttons that the system accepts. Go back in game and test the buttons, then once you're set, just save a Core or Content Remap from the Controls menu.

      Well i can F4 out of it, and outside of RetroPie it works fine, same with the controller, but if i try to configure any kind of device as a controller in RetroPie it has that problem.

      I got a USB Hat on the pi and thats how i connect USB and ethernet to it. it got power LEDs for each of the inputs and nothing seems out of the ordinary with it when entering into EmulationStation, so i doubt that the Hat is the cause of the issue.

      That depends. First and foremost, it's a secure behaviour to only give yourself administrator rights (e.g. via sudo) when absolutely necessary. Also, if you happen to change the file's owner or permissions by accident in a way that the normal user can't access them anymore, it can cause further problems.

      In short, by training yourself to use sudo only when necessary you avoid future problems and, at worst, security holes.

      In your particular case, mere editing an existing file shouldn't make you any trouble, but if the file doesn't exist, you'll create it with the owner root instead of pi. Because a new file will be created with only write permissions for the owner, any application like an emulator that's run by pi wouldn't be able to write to this file afterwards.

      Again, that may or may not be a problem depending on the file, but avoiding to use sudo will negate this uncertainty alltogether.

      @killerpoke said in Configure controller emulation station:

      How can i change that controller configuration pops up every start when no controller is connected ?

      Connect a keyboard and configure it as a controller, then disconnect it. You sholdn't be prompted to configure your input on start, even if you don't have a controller connected.
