Welcome to this forum. Please provide us with the information that is asked for in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@MisterMints Okey thx must have misunderstood the tutorial hehe..

@noiz13 First, you should answer the questions asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first, as requested by the forum.
For your particular controller, see these topics covering similar problems

@kidcy

Not a problem. Glad to hear that it worked out for you.

I have a question,
could you manage to get a GPIO output to toggle from high to low or vice versa when something happens in the game? are there any methods to detect if gameover or highscore happens?
I ask because I have RGB mood lighting on my cabinet, and would love to make it flash and strobe etc if you die or get a highscore etc.

I understand that detecting an emulator starting and detecting what happens inside the emulator are two different things, but you dont get if you dont ask :)

@paulatkinson616 said in N64 Controller:

I really only intend to play N64 games on it

Temper your expectations if you want to use a pi solely for n64. Some games are playable, but many have issues. Even on the PC n64 emulation struggles.

Yeah thanks, can you do that off any controller inputs or do I need to get a key board?

@beamquaker No problem, just post any questions you have.

Okay, it looks like I have it running pretty clean now. Thank you all so much. Next I'll try to figure out how to add Famicom CDS, Super Famicom, Virtual Boy and maybe Game & Watch directories/roms to my build. Time to start hunting through the threads [slaps and rubs hands together in eager excitement] :)

oh wait i had to restart

Pretty sure I needed up fixing all my issues.
