      @mitu just to make sure this time, when I want to change the button layout I use the input section in the RGUI and save the config remap?

        If you want to modify the layout just for a system and/or game, then yes, use a core/game remap, as I explained at the beginning of the topic.

          @mitu thanks mitu. Im confused yet again. I have gone into each separate system this morning and changed the button layout using the controls option then pressing save core overridesin the RGUI section. Yet again, they are not saving. Should I be using the input option in the RGUI menu and creating binds for each system??

            @Lugzyboy82 said in Controls not saving in RGUI menu:

            Yet again, they are not saving.

            Don't you get the 'Remap saved successfully` message when you save your core remap ? How do you determine they're not saving ?

              @mitu for example

              I am going to change the button layout for Alien Storm for the Sega Megadrive

              I have started the game
              Entered the RGUI menu
              Go to controls
              Set the buttons up accordingly
              I click on save core remap file in the controls menu
              I have the message "remap file saved successfully"
              I resume the game
              The buttons work perfectly
              I exit the game back to the game selection menu
              Restart the ROM
              And it works perfectly.

              I don't believe this. It has worked. The problem was I was saving using the "save core override" option when I should have been using the "save core remap file" in the controls screen.

              Thank you so much for everything Mitu. No doubt I will encounter another problem where you can rescue me again. Thank you and have a nice day my friend.
