@eberhab After more research it turns out that this is a "Pro Controller" related issue which affects all cores and emulators. It has already been beautifully solved here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/16503/how-to-connect-a-switch-pro-controller-with-analog-stick-without-xboxdrv

@bram279b What mitu said plus... you should just be able to swap joystick ports with the controller. It's built into the base mapping if you're using a SNES style controller.

If not, it should be your "A" button, whatever that is. That should toggle.

Try it with an easier game like Bruce Lee. Use the virtual keyboard as well as the controller to make sure you have it setup correctly.

The Virtual Keyboard in lr-vice64 also has a button to press to toggle joysticks,

@Thorr69 Thank you for your help. I just had a chance today to sit down and work on it. I got it working. Thanks again

Is this a genuine DS4 (Sony) or a clone ? I have the same controller and it works without issues (wired or bluetooth).

Guys, I will try different confs to see if even PoP will work.

In the meanwhile you discovered to me a whole world of possibilities!

Thanks again all for your help!

I know it's been a few days but finally found some time again.

I'm looking at my /opt/retropie/configs/snes/retroarch.cfg

input_player1_b = "shift" input_player1_b_btn = "nul" input_player1_b_axis = "nul" input_player1_y = "ctrl" input_player1_y_btn = "nul" input_player1_y_axis = "nul" input_player1_select = "5" input_player1_select_btn = "nul" input_player1_select_axis = "nul" input_player1_start = "1" input_player1_start_btn = "nul" input_player1_start_axis = "nul" input_player1_up = "up" input_player1_up_btn = "nul" input_player1_up_axis = "nul" input_player1_down = "down" input_player1_down_btn = "nul" input_player1_down_axis = "nul" input_player1_left = "left" input_player1_left_btn = "nul" input_player1_left_axis = "nul" input_player1_right = "right" input_player1_right_btn = "nul" input_player1_right_axis = "nul" input_player1_a = "z" input_player1_a_btn = "nul" input_player1_a_axis = "nul" input_player1_x = "alt" input_player1_x_btn = "nul" input_player1_x_axis = "nul" input_player1_l = "space" input_player1_l_btn = "nul" input_player1_l_axis = "nul" input_player1_r = "x" input_player1_r_btn = "nul" input_player1_r_axis = "nul"

This is what's exactly in the file for the button mapping for P1 and when I go into Super Street Fighter alpha 2 it doesn't work. Made a rom specific cfg too and still doesnt work. Now here's the super weird part ... tried Star Fox 2 and controls seemed to work fine. Tried Super Star Wars and same problem as SFA2.

Edit: Also how do I go about reinstalling an emulator?

@whistlernl when i wired up my ipac in my apple iie pi i specifically programmed button a as enter and button b as space and start as esc. This made it pretty well setup for vice as those are the 3 most used keys in vice. Not sure why some games on c64 require hitting escape to get past some title screen/instructions screen while also using space or enter in that same game?

Ok. I understand. Thx for the help.

@edmaul69 A good suggestion, but I cannot get my "real" joystick keys to be anything other than they are, unless I somehow can remap them pr. game basis. Is it possible via a script? A remap-script on rom launch and a undo script when exiting the game? I think something like that will probably be the only way.

@legione6 said in Bluetooth Keyboard with FN key for F1, F2 etc:

i'm a newbie on this forum .
I've installed retropie 4.2 on raspberry Pi3 model B.
I'm trying to use a mini bluetooth keyboard to execute commands for file manager, retropie-setup and others features but i cant use ESC, FN button and then F keys. the other keys works correctly.

The keyboard is similar at Apple keyboard. This is a photo:

Can you help me to enable these keys?
Must i install any package?

Thank you

Presa Fn key (left, down of keyboard) + blue key
