Any idea where I might have gone wrong? 😅

Did you delete any configuration file(s) hoping you'll 'reset' the mapping ?

Sounds like you've deleted es_input.cfg from EmulationStation's configuration folder, in which case follow the steps in the docs to reset your inputs and re-configure your gamepad once again.

@tmxretro the "h" key is the default retroarch "reset content" hotkey and, without a controller connected, there is no default "enable hotkey" hotkey configured, so all the other ones (like "reset content") will work on their own, with just a single keypress.

You can toggle game focus with the "game focus (toggle)" hotkey (default: scroll_lock, configurable from settings > input > hotkeys > game focus (toggle)). While game focus is enabled, other hotkeys (including "exit emulator") will not function, passing full keyboard control to the loaded core; press scroll_lock again to disable game focus and return hotkey functionality.

Yes, it works !!! Thank you very much !!!

@sleve_mcdichael

#input_reset_btn = "0"

in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig/Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller.cfg

it works, thx;)

@mitu Thank you!!

Please add a better title for your post and some details about your setup, as asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@BuZz

Yes. It was that. Changed back the bluetooth connect mode to default and is solved. It was in background mode because my SNES30 joystick was temperamental about connecting with Retropie.

I did an update from the the old Retropie version rather than a new install. And maybe because that the bug still present.

Thanks a lot.

@ratedrguy said in Error running any script including RetroPie-Setup:

Module /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/ports/openbor-6xxx.sh is missing valid rp_module_desc

It looks like you created this file incorrectly - this file is not part of RetroPie - attempting to install another version of openbor. Deleting the file would have fixed the problem.

@spaniel48 We don't support 3rd party images, especially the ones sold with the hardware/roms.

@granderjoree I don't think that's possible either. The input_exit_emulator_btn can only have one value.

It's still not enough info to diagnose the problem - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

If you updated your packages only, that might have updated the kernel without updating any of the drivers in RetroPie. I suggest you run also a RetroPie update, if you haven't done so.

@mitu Still the game that was able to launch can't "insert coin". I will try to set the hotkey on "globe" and see.

@Efriim

thats okay thanks for trying :) and the DS3 works fine as is i just moved onto Wii U Pro controller cause its much more comfortable and lasts longer but what can i do. DS3 for now.

@downup

The closest thing is setting all_users_control_menu = "true". However, this would obviously mean that all users would be able to control the menu and not just player three. However, you could unbind the controller mappings for all RetroArch functions and map them solely as keyboard keys. Then players one and two wouldn't have access from the controllers, but anyone using a keyboard would.

@maxxtc Scraped info is kept in /opt/retropie/config/all/emulationstation/gamelists (also available via file shares at \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation\gamelists, each system has its own gamelist.xml that stores this info.
If you wish to remove this info, then exit Emulationstation and delete the gamelist.xml files with the wrong info. Starting Emulationstation again will re-create those files from scratch, but without any of the info you scraped.
