START+SELECT on PS4 Wired controller not working to connect
-
I read a lot of forums and they were all confusing and not helpful, I have a PS4 controller and everything works well but when i try to save R-Shoulder+SELECT nothing happens and when I try to exit with SELECT+START nothing happens. I tried SELECT+START+A+B and I got a black screen until I let go. I heard that if I unplug the Retro Pie to turn off because I cant exit it can and or will damage it and I am stuck. Some one please help me, thanks.

@flamingflareon You're fine just shutting down the PI with unplugging, just make sure you don't do this every time.
You probably configured your controller to use a dedicatedHotkeybutton, and that button is used instead ofSelect. Re-map your controller, skip the Hotkey assignment and you'll be asked to use theSelectbutton. Confirm this and then re-try to see if it works. -
Ok thank you so much can i contact you if I have any other problems? :)

No. But you're free to use the forums, just like in the this topic, and someone might be able to help you. Could be me, could be someone else :)

Sorry but the exiting worked when i changed my hotkey but I still cant get it to save
-
@flamingflareon How are you trying to save - which game/emulator/key combo ?
-
I try to use SELECT+R_SHOULDER to save and nothing happens on any game/emulator and on n64,Gba.gbc and more+atari i cant get to save
-
@flamingflareon Have you mapped the R1 button correctly ? You can save pressing
Select+X, then using 'Save'. -
I am sooooo sory but now with the configured hotkey as select BTW i am using a ps4 controller, it exits so when i enter a game and hit start to start it closes out can you give me a list of proper button configurations plz?
-
@flamingflareon Here you go: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/, scroll down and you'll see a proper mapping for a PS style controller.
-
ok i got that fixed but still cant save...
-
@flamingflareon Are you able to save from the RGUI ? You can save pressing
Select+X, then using Save State. Does this work ? If it does not, then take a moment and give more details about your system - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first
