@bitzdv said in eduke 32 gamepad issues and expansion installation:

You can rebind some of the buttons in the game, but the issue is that in the menus A and B are swapped, and this can not be rebound.

That might be handled automatically by the Gamepad API in SDL2, hence the game usage of the gamecontrollerdb file. You can create your own mapping and add it to the source of eduke32 before compiling, but it's kind of a long shot. See https://github.com/gabomdq/SDL_GameControllerDB, the Mapping Tools section.

@Rincewind I had the same problem and after a lot of trying this is what I do :

connect a keyboard enter the game go to controls , change something exit, start a new name. then I discovered a eduke32.log file in home/pi, copy this path that appear inside:

/home/pi/.config/eduke32/ and paste it in winscp (.config is a hidden folder)
3) there is your cfg file.

Hope it helps, I still have to tweak this files to make the game work propperly.

@dudleydes Thanks I will check it out, my analog sticks were automatically configured too but I wanted to map the left analog to move and the right analog to aim/look. Maybe fiddling with the .cfg file could tell me more!

@commanderj Hi CommanderJ

You need to use a text editor that understands UNIX-style line breaks. Notepad doesn't and that's why it all appears on a single line for you.

I suggest Notepad++ which is free. When you edit a text file from your RPi it should say Unix (LF) at the bottom of the Notepad++ window.

Here's my full eduke32.cfg. Feel free to copy it and amend it to your liking.
