      Reicast is not a RetroArch emulator (unless you're using lr-reicast, now renamed to lr-beetle-dc), so there's no menu. You can configure your joystick from the RetroPie-Setup script if it's not already configured - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Dreamcast/#controls.

        @mitu thank you for your answer it's a little complicated for me because I use a controller that is not referenced ...

        I will try the other core ... he also has the savestates ?

        Thanks

          Yes, it should have. Make sure you have updated the RetroPie-Setup script, since the name has changed recently.

              @Sebiohazard Please add more info about your system - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

              If you are using the RetroArch core (now it's named lr-flycast), do you get a message at the start of the game with 'Controller Xyz.. not configured' ? Is your controller working in other lr- emulators (NES/SNES/Megadrive) ?

                @mitu I use the Reicast core ... it's not right? No I do not get a message ... with other emulators the joystick works well

                PS: What is the key combination to access the RetroArch menu ?

                  It's Hotkey + X, so if your Hotkey is set to Select, use Select + X.

                      @Sebiohazard The name of the emulator appears when you start a game, in the Runcommand splash screen, between parentheses. This is where you also switch between emulators - it's not enough to just install the new emulator, you'll have to select it also when starting the game.
