@Arrafart Those are great controllers by the way. I have the old set (US and Japanese) with the corresponding color patterns on the buttons, before Nintendo forced 8-bitdo to change them :-(. I actually set RetroPie up with them easily. I wanted to try the Xbox 360 controller out. I also use the WiiU Pro Controllers as well.

If you have Enter as hotkey_enable for the keyboard, then pressing Enter + F1 should open the menu with the keyboard.

@mitu thanks

@abj Will look thru these again, thank you

I found a solution from older post. I changed controller order from RA menu and use an override, it's working.

@mitu the "O" button.

@mitu ah okay, so there's an improvised numberpad on there. A bit of a slanty one but that will do.

@billydent said in USB controllers/keyboard no longer work in games, only ES:

I didn't have to go through reinstalling Retroarch -- I deleted retroarch.cfg and rebooted and everything worked again!

As I said earlier, re-installing will add the default RetroPie configuration, which you'll need. Just removing the file and running RetroArch will generate the default RetroArch config, which is not always suited for a Pi. YMMV.

@frankeanu said in No prompt to set up my controller:

@Addison Sorry, I just wanted to provide the info of what I was using. There was no personal reference link; it was the URL copied directly from the Amazon product listing. It's now removed.

A correct Amazon link would appear as something like this.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/XXXXXXXXXX/

Yours had extra which meant a referral was also included.

It's okay though.

Just be a little more careful.

It's easy to get suddenly banned here. :P

@mahoneyt944 ok that sounds easy enough. Thanks!

The hotkey actions are only available for P1, that's by design - it cannot be configured.

@mitu OK, thanks for your efforts, for the time being I'll use different board for retropie. It wasn't just the inputlag, they have usefull feature, but I think I have found an alternative that don't seem to have problem with Emulationstation.

@mitu said in n64 games 2 player support ?:

Open the configuration file for Mupen64Plus in /opt/retropie/configs/n64/InputAutoCfg.ini (also accessible via file shares at \\retropie\configs\n64\InputAutoCfg.ini) and remove the keyboard entry, see if it changes the player order.

I removed the keyboard entry and rebooted and that solved the problem. Thanks!

@duglor I think you could do quick menu > controls > port 2 controls > mapped port: 1 and then save it as a game or core remap file. Do this for each game or core that requires it.

@TPR said in Controller Configuration Always Gives Errors on Emulation Station:

Is this a known issue?

No.

Did you ever get this issue fixed? I am having literally the SAME EXACT issue. Retro Pie on a Pi3b+.

@YFZdude I see. Thanks for the info and the tip. But the issue I have, and the reason I wanted for every button to work on d-input, is the fact that both controllers have the same name in switch mode, which is a problem with their wildly different layouts.

@nemo93 Ok thanks anyway.
I opened a topic on GitHub.
