@arvis1 NEVERMIND, i found the issue. In this thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/34661/solved-remove-pulseaudio-and-revert-back-to-alsa/3
The issue was that using purge on pulseaudio did not fully uninstall, so you have to go into the retropie setup as detailed in this guide.

You may want to use the Configuration Editor and choose to change the joystick order for the systems where you want the X360 pads to be player 1/2 instead of the arcade panel's 2 players.

Please add some more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

I assume that by 'not detected', you mean you can't configure it in EmulationStation ? Can you try to test the gamepad with jstest (see here and see if it works ?
Please post the result of the following commands:

cat /proc/bus/input/devices lsusb

Did you try updating EmulationStation ? The current stable release is 2.11.2, while you're still on version 2.10.1 from almost 3 years ago.

@DjDiabolik @mitu I owe both of you a debt of gratitude! And @mitu you saved me awhile back too…..

So here’s my quick story: I was running 20.04 and it ran well for awhile. But then the BT started acting up with my DualShock 3 controllers. I read awhile back there was a workaround but I couldn’t find it now. Plus the OS was old so I decided to just go ahead and upgrade to 22.04. And then update Retropie along with it, hoping this would repair any corrupt/damaged files. So….my BT issue was resolved. Games, everything running just great. Then I pressed my luck and decided to upgrade to 24.04. Then BOOM. I had all the issues that @DjDiabolik was experiencing! Ugggghhhhh.
But I followed your discussion here and all was resolved.

You two are the GOAT and I really appreciate all the hard work and testing you did to find this workaround/resolution!☺️

PS: I know it’s an old thread but wanted to reply here with my heartfelt THANK YOU!!

@vorvy
Do you have any update on this? I am currently trying to make the same controller work, but I am not having much luck.

@sugarfree wow, its amazing how you just solved my problem with only two lines of code. Thank you so much, words fail to express the relief you just brought me lol

Yes, you can use it.

In another words an email or file that says that i can use retropie to the project named"PAP - ArcadeDeck"

@Garrett216 said in RetroPie games not working on some emulators:

wish me luck

Getting a core to work is usually a matter of reading its documentation, not a matter of luck.

@duglor I understand, it's the same game, apparently the base version is the Java one, I have both doom rpg but with lr-freej2me
