Updated the guide a little

Snapshots (game saves) are saved to the xbox hard drive image so just backup your hard drive image if you want to save your games and you access and manage them via settings menu.

@mem-com I had the github password problem with other scripts but not with xboxdrv. I don't know how to bypass this.

Can you run the following commands and post the output here in the topic ? If xpad is not recognizing the gamepad, we can try and force the driver to load is we know the device's Vendor and Product Ids

lsusb cat /proc/bus/input/devices

update: after doing a little configuration the game doesn't boot. I think I messed something up in the settings. Probably selecting the wrong bios or something.

I will keep testing. If anyone knows what I did wrong please share your input.

I'm not sure why this topic is in 'Help & Support' and what's the connection to RetroPie ?

If the button is recognized by EmulationStation, then it should work in any Libretro cores - I think you're confusing the 'home key' (keyboard) with 'home button' (joypad).
Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - including the exact controller type and model you're using.

@Unknown Late to this thread but what about XEMU? https://xemu.app/

My 8bitdo Ultimate Wireless 2.4ghz controller with updated firmware also didn't work on the latest RetroPie image.
But I was able to make it work only after updating driver packages --> I noticed that xpad had update.

@mitu Ah okay, im really sorry I'm so new to this I expected them to be BUTTON,

No worries, you're doing great so far.

Have you tried using the Core input remapping menu to re-configure the input ?

@yarongo said in Pi3B, Xbox Wireless Controller not connecting:

A few questions to @mitu :

Should I uninstall xpad driver first?

No, it's not needed.

Should I install xpadneo directly from Github and not via the menu?

You can try, but the menu installation pulls the latest release tag from the xpadneo Github repository anyway, so I don't think it will make a difference.

@mitu
Yes it turns out that the custom Retropie xpad driver was the culprit. I was pointed to this issue thread here, https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/3379

I tried uninstalling and once again my XBox One controller worked fine with the program im working on (Chiaki)!

I'm still waiting to hear if that solves my user's similar issue as well.

Thanks!

Here is the GitHub page https://github.com/mborgerson/xemu

Actually you CAN emulate the PS2 on the Pi 4, but the speed is abysmal and the legwork required is insane. The tl;dr version of the story is you need to install Windows 10 using Windows on Raspberry and run PCSX2. SOME games run at playable speeds, but not many. Disgaea 1 and 2, Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2, Final Fantasy 10, and Final Fantasy 12 are playable. There are likely more, but those are the ones I've tested.

@offlercrocgod Xbox360 controllers do not have Bluetooth and will require a usb adapter to work. 3rd party adaptors are sold on Amazon and work just fine.
If you wanted to go the Bluetooth route, you need an Xbox one controller WITH BLUETOOTH. Not all have it. Or get a ps4 controller.

@alistairgd said in Wired XBox Controller works in menu but not in-game:

Now, it works for P1 in some games, but as P2 in other games.

Do you have any configuration overrides for the games where the configuration is not applied ? Try removing them. If that fails, give an example of such game and maybe provide a verbose log from running the game.

Forgot the post link. I tried most things listed here even though I’m using an Xbox one Bluetooth controller not a series controller.
