@itsnitro yes. I have opened several with roaches. All systems that have vents are potential roach motels. Heat and dark space. Everything they love.

FYI Xbox One accessories are not supported when connected via Bluetooth

How do I install a joystick selection?

https://github.com/meleu/RetroPie-joystick-selection/

It's not part of RetroPie-Setup (yet?).

We discuss about joystick-selection tool in this thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/1167/here-is-a-way-to-select-joystick-for-players-1-4-global-or-emu-specific

Thank you so much!!

@Noxoreos, never mind on that question regarding the directory (it just looked weird to me; I've never seen a folder with a ".data" at the end). Another question, however, whenever I try and run the shell script, I get an error about not having the permission to access data in the /var/lib/bluetooth/ directory. Any idea what's going on there? and how I might fix it?

Is there any you'd recommend? Modmypi.com where I usually buy my Pi stuff only seems to have up to 2.5A.

I too found that additional bluetooth devices could not be added while the PS3 driver is enabled.

@obsidianspider said in Bluetooth PS3 or PS4 Controller with RetroPie?:

The last Playstation controller I used was a Dualshock 2 on my Playstation 2, but I assume the PS3 controller is basically the same thing but wireless.

I wouldn't say that, i don't like dualshock3's dpad.

Another step forward! These are my controllers default calibration values:

jscal -s 18,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,0,0,536870912,536870912,1,0,0,0,536870912,536870912,1,255,-4208,3952,21931,21931,1,255,-4208,3952,21931,21931,1,255,-4208,3952,21931,21931,1,63,-1023,1023,87367,87367,1,63,-1023,1023,87367,87367,1,63,-1023,1023,87367,87367,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,960,960,559240,559240,1,0,471,471,1139853,1139853,1,0,32767,32767,16384,16384 /dev/input/js0

And this pacifies the gyroscope's axis. I don't need them and they cause endless events if not "deadzoned":

jscal -s 18,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,112,142,5534751,5534751,1,0,0,0,536870912,536870912,1,0,0,0,536870912,536870912,1,255,0,0,0,0,1,255,0,0,0,0,1,255,0,0,0,0,1,255,0,0,0,0,1,255,-0,0,0,0,1,255,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,960,960,559240,559240,1,0,471,471,1139853,1139853,1,0,32767,32767,16384,16384 /dev/input/js0

Unfortunately there is no way to calibrate /dev/iput/event0, but /dev/input/js0 (jstest /dev/input/js0) is completely silent now if the gamepad isn't in use. This should be good enough for me, as even SDL might be forced to use /dev/input/js0 (export SDL_JOYSTICK_DEVICE=/dev/input/js0).

Next step would be to recognize for how long /dev/input/js0 showed no action. Any ideas?

Hey @gomisensei today I bought a Sony Dualshock 4 Wireless USB Adapter.

It does all the wireless pairing in hardware and appears as a plugged-in USB controller, so you don't need to setup Bluetooth or ds4drv or anything special in software at all.

Just plug in, push the adapter for 3 seconds to enter pairing mode, press PS+Select on the controller, and you're good to go.

This worked with both my controllers, the one which works over RetroPie Bluetooth menu, and the one which otherwise needs ds4drv.

If you have multiple controllers, you need one adapter per controller. I'm going to buy another one soon but I expect it'll work fine.

Hope this helps you!
