Retroarch.cfg question
-
@mitu Thanks. So I should have all of those settings on false? That’s what I thought I had and all of the settings got changed.
-
@DetroitKp You can check the
.cfgfile itself and see if you have that setting. What file are you looking at ? RetroPie uses a.cfgper system, but there's also a global.cfgfile that is included for each system - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/#config-hierarchy. -
@mitu Thanks. I’m working in the global config folder.
In the “dist” folder - which I believe is the default, some of the entries have a “#” at the beginning. I’m guessing that means they have no function unless and until I remove the #?
-
@DetroitKp For example, the pause section has:
input_pause_toggle = p
Do I need to remove the # to active?
-
Yes, the
#character at the beginning of the line will comment the line, making it inactive. -
@mitu Thanks! And after I make the changes manually in the global all config folder and I close it out, I don’t need to make sure any save or other items are checked to make sure it isn’t modified going forward?
-
@DetroitKp Yes, that would be the idea.
If you find yourself wanting to change settings, use either the core/game input remapping (see the previous link to the RA's configuration page) or use the 'Save game options' menu, but try to avoid the 'Save Configuration' entry in the RGUI if possible. -
@mitu Thanks mitu! Most appreciated. FYI - here is my folder. See anything in here I need to change? https://pastebin.com/pMkfzfGW
-
@DetroitKp It looks fine - besides the input configuration you added, it's the stock RA config that RetroPie distributes.

@mitu Thanks Mitu! Really appreciate all of your help!
