8Bitdo NES30 Pro Bluetooth controllers not registering right analog left and right positions properly

ExarKunIv

@mitu did a clean load, updated everything. and even with what buzz did. the left on the right stick still does not work.
but will work once i use anything to back me out of ES.

just wanted to let someone know. and yes i have tried 3 different 8bit controllers and 3 different boards. the out come is still the same.

i even manually revert the SDL package just for the heck of it. still the same.

so ill just stick with 4.4 and just keep testing as new updates come about

@ExarKunIv I’m having the same issue here and found this thread by googling. 8bitdo SF30 Pro. Everything will map EXCEPT the right analog stick won’t register left. Very frustrating. Will try some of the recommendations here.

@joeljoel1947 hate to say, im glad im not alone.
so far i have not gotten anything to work, so it is something deeper. just the question is what

This is probably the cause of the issue: https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation/commit/b097648dde9ed6c431592f3ca6e7c34e08d7575c

@buzz - The problem could be avoided if the axis adjustment is only done for trigger mapping. Will look at it when I have time, but it might be best just to revert this for now (keeping in mind that reverting breaks mapping for controllers using hid-sony driver).

@psyke83 how do you revert, if i may ask?

but with my limited knowlage with the coding, it is easy for me not to get things :P

@psyke83 Aah. Forgot about that. My previous test change had similar issues (was much more hacky that yours :-) ). Will revert and rebuild for now - thanks.

Please update EmulationStation. I have reverted the aforementioned patch

Thanks man! I've submitted an alternative fix for PS3 controllers: https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation/pull/554

Tested and working well, but I don't know if the solution is good enough (as it's still a hack of sorts).

ExarKunIv

It is now working just fine, to big thank you to @buzz and @psyke83.

So @ExarKunIv , just update emulationstation and it now magically works?? Sweet! And no, you were not alone! I actually thought my controller was defective because it was doing this same thing over several very different builds.
