@tinkerbell1268 Due, I got this problem too, thanks for your method.

@kay-row it should still generate a log in the same location, after launching as normal

@ReadyPlayaWon thanks!
I removed the other PPSSPP I had and installed the lr-PPSSPP package, the controls all worked out of the box!
Thank you again!

In 2.0.10, it looks like a hint was added (SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG_FILE) to point to a user chosen 'gamesdbcontroller.txt' file. It looks like PPSSPP doesn't use this mechanism to load the file, but it might affect how SDL2 works when the game controller API is initialized by the emulator.

I'll see if a recent source build for PPSSPP triggers this on a RPi, it could also be something that's changed in the emulator since the last binary build in RetroPie.

@quicksilver
In buffered I get this, but I don't know how to change it in lr-ppsspp, but in ppsspp it gives me a black screen.

@Gumdoc said in PSP questions:

I downloaded it last night from source.

Its been a week or two since I last updated ppsspp. It was working fine for me last I checked (Ill update and test on my end to see if there has been a regression). Specifically what games are you testing? If they arent running fullspeed you can have audio issues. Can you try resetting your settings to default in the ppsspp menu, perhaps you accidentally changed something there?

@Rudd23 thankyou i will try that they were zip files but i couldnt unzip it so yea.

@quicksilver
It had passed 4 months before I actually tried your fix proposal.
It worked. The X-box controller is now fully compatible. Thank you!

@rodolfoaguilar @Firebird_WS6
I'm summing up what quicksilver proposed.
This solution worked for me.

Plug in a Keyboard While in Emulation Station press F4 to open the Terminal Type sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/xpad.conf Change
xpad triggers_to_buttons=1 to xpad triggers_to_buttons=0 Press cntrl-x Accept the changes. Return back to Emulation Station by typing emulationstation Restart Retropie.
(In my case, I noticed that the X-box controller had started acting strangely while in Emulation Station.
The D-pad buttons swapped positions in Emulation Station as they were previously in PPSSPP.) Remap the controller in Emulation Station. Remap the controller in PPSSPP if necessary.
(In my case, this was not needed.)

I'm not sure why this issue is affecting some people and not others.
Apparently, the problem is caused by the Trigger buttons somehow.

Ahh.. got it. Thanks for your help, I changed mirrors in sources.list and I'm good to go. Should have thought of that. That's what I get for doing a rebuild at 3 am on a Saturday night.

I have the same issue with my Xbox controller. My analog does as you say, but my Dpad works fine.

The non lr-ppsspp version of ppsspp you would get the menu's and such when just hitting your hotkey.

@phelix01 Please provide info requested here as already requested earlier https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Is there a reason you are ignoring this request? We cant help you unless you give us all the info. What type of monitor/display are you using?

@shavecat I have never tried those two games. But I noticed big performance boost after I overclocked my PI. I have GoldenEye installed, but never played jet. Maybe I will try it today and let you know.

@retropieuser555 I use the center button on my PS3 controller, which I've set as my trigger for hotkeys. It brings up the PPSSPP menu and I exit using that.

Also if you look up God of War PSP emulation in general you will see it seems to be one of the hardest games to emulate at full speed in general on various hardware. So it may wind up being that even pi4 won’t do it.

@mitu Thx for this. would you happen to know if I define a location of a folder that does not exist, will it create said folder for me or return an error instead?

Per another GM (Muti) on another Topic (which I had to heavily research for some reason)…

They're not enabled for the ODROID, only for the RPI/PC. If you wish to test them, you need to remove the !mali flag from the scriptmodules' rp_flags and re-run the setup script to appear
