@rogerdodger said in Configuring xboxdrv with Xin-Mo 2 player controller: Perhaps true 4 way controls can only be achieved mechanically, I have limited knowledge of Arcade stuff. i belive this is the only way ... as i suggested earlier, it is possible to physically switch from 4 to 8way by loosen the screw on the bottum, but if you want something that can switch automaticly i would suggest something like the ultimarc servostik perhaps, alltho those are quite a lot more expensive than the zippy joysticks (especially if you want 2).

thanks guys indeed now it works thanks again

@johnes Did you configure the controller in Emulationstation as described here ? This should get you the proper mapping in Emulationstation (i.e. Start brings up the ES menu, Select the edit menu, etc.). Please add more info about your system - as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - and specify which version are you using and which emulator do you have the behaviour your're seeing for the extra buttons.

Re-ordering the controllers can be done through @meleu's Joystick selection tool, give it a try.

I am having the same issue mine comes up with o LG one gamepad recognized. I have a 3B+ with retropie 4.4. I have tried the custom kernel 1.20160322-1 and the cmdline.txt with no luck. The kernel install fails though so I'm not sure how to get around that or if it would even work on a 3B+ at all.

@papinist DL21 only works for DL, but on http://www.dragons-lair-project.com/tech/ you can find enhanced versions of DL2 and SA as well. Look under "ROM Updates". I think a separate thread would be better for your Daphne issues.

set your controller again with emulation station

@jbodders2018 Hello, I m facing the same issue. Have you find a solution?

Okay so update! At long last I figured out the issue... Hallelujah! I opened up the hardware and looked hard at the xin mo encoder. I had a diagram to reference where the connections need to be beforehand in case. I then simply unplugged the 2nd player side's 4 pin (up, down, left, right) connector and turned it around and plugged it right in and BAM! All of the configurations read right and the controls were as they should be! Hopefully this can help anyone who was at a loss like I was. It seems when all software issues fail... Check the physical connections to verify. 😂👍

@hoofa8 I'm using my own made dual arcade control panel ( based on ipac 2) and an Xbox wired gamepad at the same time: no issues.

@tommeesawyer I know this is pretty old thread... I’m about to try 2 xin mo for 4 players plus a ultimatc trackball. Did you have any issues assigning 4 players in emulation station controller setup? All working good with mame and 4 player console games? (ex. Mario kart 64) Hopin for some insight with this option rather than single player zero delay controllers taking up all 4 USB ports...

@edmaul69 it's identified as a USB game pad, it's only the up/down axis that won't work, I'll try the lr-vice tomorrow, I can live without daphne :)

@IWANIAK has anyone experienced this? With these types of things, there are usually cases to be found where others have experienced similar issues. However, your case may be different. It will be much easier to help you specifically if you post the requested information about your setup found at https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@edmaul69 hi. yes all changes were made within the RetroArch GUI. I checked QuickMenu -> Controls and from Settings -> Input. Both looked ok.

Ok update I have worked out this is partly my own stupidity and partly the Xin Mo's fault. Basicly everything is inverted in some way shape or form. The 2 sticks are inverted (P1 is actually P2 and visa versa) And also my p1 stick is inverted directionaly (Up is Down etc Why the hell this is the way it is I do not know as I have wired them to the correct sides of the board of the Xin Mo etc so thats a bit confusing (Inverted wireing diagram maybe?) Either way I have sorted all this out by inverting all the controls in retroarch and swapping out the odd inputs. So all sorted :)

hey mate, i'm stupid. i wiring alla exactly buttons and joy of player 1 in player 1 side of xin mo. and player 2 in p0 side of xin-mo. i unmount all wirings, and so, i after swap all wiring: so player 1wired to p0 side player 2wiredto p1 side joystick of player 1 and 2 in up and down movements WORKS, select and start of p1are swapped after mapping and reboot, select and start of p2the same swapped after mapping and reboot, i can fix this about swapping select and start of player1? here my cmdline.txt # code block dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=serial0,115200 console=tty2 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline fsck.repair=yes rootwait quiet loglevel=3 logo.nologo consoleblank=0 usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040 plymouth.enable=0
