[alexck]

@lostless how?

[lostless]

@alexck should be the default driver already installed into retropie.

[alexck]

@lostless ik but how do i use it

[alexck]

thx for helping figured it out

[lostless]

@alexck go to retropie setup on the retropie menu. Then manage packages. The driver packages. It will show what's installed. If xbdvr is installed, uninstall it. And see if xpad is installed. If it is installed, then an Xbox 360 controller should work fine as a controller. Just set it up like you would any controller. Never had issues with it.

@lostless already got it working just needed to add something to autostart.sh
