Well i got round to testing that as it was sat on my pi anyway i can confirm contra 4 works fine i have a us dump if its relavent and if i may suggest you could try checking your controller mappings see if shoot and hook isnt mapped to the same button by mistake you never know may have overlooked it but it is working fine infact ive just been playing it with my ps3 controller on my pi with enhanced resolution enabled(actually gives 2d games a nice crisp appearance instead of the default blurred one)

@quicksilver
Thanks, It's what was I thought. This post misleads people. In the next version, they probably add a static noise. I hope....

@driagonv

I'm afraid not at the moment and unfortunately I don't think that is bound to change anytime soon. The DraStic team has had a bit of hard luck, losing key members and even a certain amount of their source code. Right now, the main developer has the all-to-common problem of not having enough time to work on the project. However, there is talk of the existing source being opened up, at which point you'd likely see a lot of revitalized interest and advancement. Perhaps even a libretro core.

@blackshadow said in NDS on raspberry pi 2:

erent emulator as drastic gets stuck in the background after exit that and any games using mics wont launch i tihnk a zelda game is included in that aswell
so yeah pi 2 or 3 doesnt really matter for drastic just

Yes, my intention is just to make a portable console. I'll investigate more about the zelda game. Zelda is a must, I hope it works :)

@mediamogul said in DraStic save data location?:

They're located at /opt/retropie/configs/nds/drastic/backup/.

Thanks a bunch :)

@mitu Alas, that wouldn’t solve my issue. I’d still be unable to symlink under FAT32. :/

You have posted in the Retropie Forum. This is the forum for support regarding the official Retropie Image. There is no support for 3rd party images - you should ask the creator of the image. See point 5 here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@edmaul69 And here is the requested Config. Since i cant upload Stuff here, i got you a Mediafire-Link: http://www.mediafire.com/file/az6zsxquld1gz2q/Xbox+Wireless+Controller.cfg

Run through the setup tutorial here

https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/11443/tutorial-how-to-add-drastic-ds-emulator-and-configure-it-and-add-roms-with-retropie-manager/9

Then scroll to my post at the bottom for the correct syntax for /.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg

I have a feeling that will resolve your issue

Ignore my post i deleted. I was wrong

@buzz thank you so much and I will read the forum advice

The /opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation is actually the same folder as /home/pi/.emulationstation, the latter being a symlink to the former.

Emulationstation reads the custom file in /home/pi/.emulationstation, then - if the 1st doesn't exist - the default one /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg (installed and maintained by the RetroPie setup script).

I never got any upgrade to ever write a custom ES systems file in that folder, but I'm only using RetroPie since 4.2.0 - so it might have been a problem in the past.

Ok. Thanks for the answers @BuZz and @mitu

@darkside1305 did you ever solve this issue? I've tried everything listed elsewhere to no resolve. I keep getting the KB unknown key for many of the buttons I want to map. Using a bluetooth xbox one S controller. In the drastic.cfg file I notice that anything listed as KB unknown key is changed to a zero. If I knew how the emulator worked with retroarch I might be able to figure out the numbers but they do not match up with the normal 1-14 buttons retroarch uses.

I took the advice from @jonnykesh and it totally worked, the problem was indeed the custom es_systems.cfg that was created when I ran a script for installing it, thanks for the support

@fnkngrv there is no source code available, and the developer only released binaries compiled for the pi, so unless he openources the code or builds binaries for the xu4 then you're out of luck

Hey @kdretro, did you ever find a solution for the Reicast/Wii U Pro issue? My Wii U Pro controller was working fine up until I overclocked my Pi 3 and updated the Raspbian OS packages. Does yours freeze up when trying to configure the controller on Reicast? Mine hangs up right when I get to the analog stick part. Are you using the PI3 and have you overclocked it?

UPDATE
Just realized I don't think I ever had the Wii U Pro Controller working properly with Reicast. I'm pretty sure I was using my XBOX One Controller before.

Is anyone able to help? Did I miss something obvious?
