set you controllers up again (only one) in emulation station make at the end you set your hot key to your select button dont skip it. Also unplug your joypad as its select button is probably different from what your have on your dragonrise and thats whats probably set atm If that fails we can check what is in your config to see whats going wrong.

That did it! There was a wiring problem with the hotkey. I just unplugged it, configured select as the hotkey for both controllers and now it is running perfectly. Thanks :)

@smilker I mean you really don’t need a tutorial, I think your making it more difficult than it needs to be. Plug player 1 one encoder up to port 0 The player 2 in Port 1 If the player 1 controller is working and you set it up right on initial boot, then all you need to do is hit either select or start (can’t remember which one) and go down to configure inputs. It will say 2 controllers detected, hold a button on the player 2 controller and set that one up like you did the player 1 controller. That’s really all there is to it.

@Raekon My pleasure, have fun with Retropie. :)
