      Here is my setup as requested in Read This First:
      Pi3b, 2.1A aftermarket power supply
      Retropie 4.3
      Pre made SD Image: retropie-4.3-rpi2_rpi3.img
      1 USB wireless bluetooth keyboard
      2 identical Arcade DragonRise USB joysticks
      Amiberry

      I just installed some Amiga ROMs successfully today and found they worked quite easily first go, straight from Emulation Station and pressing F12 to put the disks in.

      However, I'm a bit stuck on the Joystick axes which are both turned 90 degrees counter clockwise. In the documentation it says "hard coded currently" and the F12 GUI Custom Input settings I tried had no effect so...

      Is there backend way to change the joystick axes in a config file?
      The info I got from jstest is :
      Axis 0 is up (32767) and down (-32767)
      Axis 1 is left (-32767) and right (32767)

      Thanks for any help you might be able to provide :)

        I have had a similar problem, with the same set up but Xin-Mo dual arcade joysticks, having updated Amiberry to the latest version and followed the instructions on setting the correct 'paths' in the GUI, the I know have the horizontal axis working as expected but the up/down reversed!

        so also trying to figure how I can change just the up/down axis for the controllers for amiberry only.

        Worth noting in the other emulators the controllers work as expected.

          Yes I haven't solved it and no one has even replied with any info. I guess it will have to wait until it is not hard coded, but gets the config from Emulation Station's virtual gamepad.
