@danield420 well the black screen could be a bad rom or possibly a missing bios file. Sure there are other factors for the balck screen i'm still learning myself. This RetroPie Github page has helped me so much https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Supported-Systems . Or make another topic and i'm sure someone can help you solve the problem if you didn't already on your own.

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?

@Norstein We don't support 3rd party images and links to ROMs/BIOS/copyrighted material is not allowed. Install the image from retropie.org.uk/download and configure your overlays there.

@mitu Thank you. For now I didn't find any game title which behaved unresponsive, so I'll keep it on 5 for now.

@schmiddyman said in 2 joystick cabinet configuration issues: gpio=13,11,15,19,10,8,-1,16,18,-1,-1 gpio2=31,29,33,35,24,-1,-1,26,-1,32,36,-1,-1 From a cursory view. Unless you used the hotkey-btn branch your provided list for gpio2 is too long. In your gpio parameters you provide 16 Pins/Buttons but initially you mention 15 buttons?! However, good to see you found a different solution.

@timbone316 You probably have save_on_exit in RetroArch. Try to open the RGUI (Select + X) while ingame and disable this. To revert to the Mame2003 default retroarch.cfg file, re-install the package from the RetroPie-setup script.

@w-wallace Thanks for sharing your solution.

@nevsan said in How do I find out and change the Retroarch Hotkeys for each system?: Hotkey for enabling RETROARCH when in a game. there is no such hotkey. there's only one hotkey - it's set during https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/First-Installation#configure-controllers - it's the last one to be set. typically you'd set it to the 'select' button on your controller. then, you access various hotkey combos by holding your hotkey and pressing some other button. eg: https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/First-Installation#hotkeys if you configure it this way, the same combo will work in every libretro (lr-) emulator.

@ryanh1323 no retroarch settings only work in libretrocores. All emulators that start with lr- are libretrocores. If you had two libretro emulators like lr-fceumm and lr-nestopia for nes then all settings in the retroarch.cfg for nes would work on both. However core settings are different and only work on that core

Thanks got it working
