Controller mapping - Cannonball

davidhod

Hi All, having some issues with a controller in Cannonball, hope this is a simple fix.

I cannot redefine the controls at all, I have 2 sticks plugged into 2 encoders, works perfectly fine elsewhere, but here I have to navigate the menu with left and right (instead of up and down) and when I try to define the controls (starting with 'up') there is no response, so can't do 'down, left right' etc. I can redefine the buttons on my cabinet so start, coin etc work fine, just not the controls.

I have another cabinet build with Cannonball on and this one works fine!

Any ideas please?

Thanks

David

@davidhod as @mitu said we need more info. Especially what encoders are you using? Cannonball might require an analog control for direction as the original game did.

All,

thanks for replying and apologies for not including some relevant info :-)

So,

Pi 3B
Official Pi PSU
RetroPie Version 4.3.9
Built from Pre made SD image on site
Arcade cabinet with 2x joysticks plugged into generic encoders presented as DragonRise generic USB joystick (no issues with any other emulators/games)
Config: https://pastebin.com/pmUkTEVe
Issue is as stated, load cannonball with no issues, go to config controls cannot set any controls in there, can navigate menu system but left and right perform up and down (if that makes sense)

I have cannonball installed on a picade I made a while back with no issues at all.

any help appreciated

Thanks
