@Arakenzo Yes, I believe player one will work fine "out of the box" that is correct. It's really just player 2 that needs to be mapped. Drop a reply here to update on how your progress goes and if you find a better tutorial than the one I provided. A lot of people are interested in this same setup. Good luck!

Thank you for the suggestions I will take another look at this tomorrow as the other half has arrived home and it's a secret project for Christmas!

Hi!

What type of iBuffalo controller are you trying to setup? The famicom version (red and gold) or the snes version?

I started a new topic on this and I hope to get some replies to help me out... Are you still having this issue? If not how did you get it to work?

Thank you and have a nice day!

@VMax Np 😉

Okay, my mistake: tried out the Ipega controller again and ES (and, apparently, Retroarch) doesn't consider it to be a gamepad at all. DS4 is recognized, however.

Also, I don't have a working wired controller now, unfortunately.

I updated installed packages / kernel in hopes of fixing the issue. No devices were detected even with a cold 4.1 install.

Is the Wii U Pro Controller any good with RetroPie and N64 games?

To debug please choose one system (Even if the problem is on many, it's better to debug one) - and please provide all the information you can regarding version etc as mentioned in the sticky topic, so I have an idea of what version of everything you are running.

The output of dmesg and cat /var/log/syslog would also be useful - can use a site like https://paste.ubuntu.com/ for the logs

Well, the guys over at libretro confirmed that currently analog triggers are not supported. For some reason I took analog trigger support for granted. Was a long road to get there :)

Anyway, does enabling analog triggers for Retropie make any sense then if they cannot be used in Retroarch anyway? I could either still do a PR or just let this branch go stale and maybe it can be of use later. I personally think it does not make sense.

Thank you @edmaul69

@k0st1x delete what is in your /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/ and configure the joysticks in emulationstation again.

For the emu specific mappings it's better to use this method:

Made some progress by changing the retroarch config to use sdl2 instead of udev. However It feels a little bit flaky. Now I need to try and get the second controller connected.

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/1077

I'm also having some issues...
Like in the game i can't acces the retroarch config anymore.

Is the wiki updated?

The directory that is missing is as follows:
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/udev

Thanks!

The problem if i recall correctly is that the second player is player 1 in that game. Some emulators fixed it but some didnt.

@dgraham1977 you have a few options.

start fresh with 4.0.2 and then manually edit your configs based on the aforementioned post or disable xpad, downgrade your kernel, and enable xboxdrv

or use an earlier version where xboxdrv isnt broken.

if you're updating from a previous version, update your setup script, select update all installed pacakges to update, then disable xboxdrv, install the xpad driver, and change your kodi configs

personally I would just recommend a fresh 4.0.2 and then modifying the kodi configs.

The kodi issue will be solved when kodi 17 stable is released.

I had a similar thing happen, but with 32x. I deleted the retropie config file for 32x, uninstalled the emulator from retripie set up, and uninstalled retro arch. Then I reinstalled retroarch and the emulator and all is well. You may have to reconfigure retroarch settings
