L/R shoulder buttons not working to jump letters
-
@zerobyzero I've taken a look at the PR, but it doesn't seem correct. The
.cfg
file is not produced by Emulationstation, it's only read by it. The.cfg
file is produced - externally - by this script, which already maps the shoulder buttons to 'pageUp/pageDown' (see here).Moreover, as others pointed out, the mapping appears to be correctly generated for other controllers - my DS4 input configuration has - correctly -
pageup
/pagedown
in the.cfg
file, so as my other controllers which have shoulder buttons.I'm thinking to have something like 'isMappedLike' which handles both D-Pad and Joysticks for movement, to map both types of inputs to the same action.

@mitu, I'll check the script but to me the fact that the source code of ES refers to the buttons by two different names is incorrect.
Anyway, I have to say that I didn't download the full package at first. I mean I only downloaded the source code of ES to compile, then when I realised I missed the themes I installed the configuration script. I need to do more testing though.

Emulationstation works with more than 1 type of controller and/or keyboard. The fact that it works fine for a lot of other people contradicts your observation.

If you didn't install the package correctly, then you'll get incorrect results. Install the package from the RetroPie-Setup package - the stable version - then re-configure your controller and see if the
.cfg
file is correctly generated.
