      Hi,

      I have a controlbloc setup on a bartop arcade machine... all working fine... In Retroarch you can manually change the button settings each time for the game you are playing... so as an example I would change the buttons if playing streefighter or mortal kombat using an LR-"emulator"...

      If i go to the retroarch menu and then to INPUT and change the buttons, then save the AUTOCONFIG file it saves the changed button list to a config file in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/

      How do you manually load these saved autoconfig files via the Retroarch menu - I can't seem to find where?

      (So that you could load them as required depending on the game you are playing?)

      Thanks!

          clue is in the name. autoconfigs are automatically loaded. if you have more than one, it's pointless as only one will ever be loaded.

          if you want to rebind controls per game, then you need a different approach. you can do this via retroarch, but for lr-mame2003 the easiest way is: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/lr-mame2003#mame-menu

            @dankcushions .... That... makes perfect sense :/

            Do you know if it's also possible to do for LR-FBA?

            I'll dig into the link and have a play - thanks!!!

            :)
