      Works good :)

        good

        so you have both a runcommd-onstart and a runcommad-onend file made correct

                    they do
                    you just need everything on the same page.

                    IE
                    correct drivers turned on, correct names ETC....

                    i use a different method now so i have not messed with it this way in a long time
                    and you have a bunch of little things you did, which is not wrong but not needed. so they might be giving a problem.

                    give me a bit i want to try something on my system

                        so the way i do things now is i have a command that gets ran when i pick a certain game, unlike the way we where just playing with. that way is always running in the back ground in a way waiting for a game that needs is to start and away it goes.

                        so im hoping that i can get my way to work and we can go from there, cuz i think even with what ever settings or naming that has been done it will not matter.

                        plus if you get to any other games that need something custom like the games in PORTS. it is very easy to copy and past from one to the other

                            ok here goes, from what i was able to test it does work on my system and it does over ride whatever preconfiged controls

                            in the rom/scummvm folder open the +start scummvm.sh and add this line under the #!/bin/bash but before anything else

                            sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 --evdev /dev/input/event0 --config /opt/retropie/configs/all//xdrive/scumm.cfg &
                            

                            dont forget to change the event number to match yours

                            now in the config folder go to the all folder and make a new folder named xdrive

                            in there make a new file called scumm.cfg
                            in there paste this

                            [xboxdrv]
                            silent=true

                            lt=KEY_A
                            rb=KEY_SPACE
                            rt=KEY_D
                            back=KEY_F5
                            start=KEY_ESC
                            tr=KEY_K
                            tl=KEY_Y
                            
                            # EOF #
                            

                            now of corse you need to change the buttons to mactch your controller.
                            these are from my setup

                            there will be some fine tuning that you will need to do, but this i hope should get you to work.

                              Question :

                              How do you create a new folder "xdrive" in command ?

                              I made a mistake and

                              Sudo nano xdrive ( sudo nano means txt from what I found out )

                              How do you create a new folder ?

                                to make the config file
                                then sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/xdrive/scumm.cfg

                                i just network into mine from the computer and use explorer to do most of everything
                                so i just right click for everything, lol

                                        that should work,

                                        if not

                                        this is what the buttons are called when you press then vs what you are pressing.
                                        example you dont want this
                                        BTN_START=start. you want this BTN_TR2=start

                                        [evdev-keymap]
                                        BTN_SOUTH=a
                                        BTN_EAST=b
                                        BTN_NORTH=x
                                        BTN_WEST=y
                                        BTN_TL=lb
                                        BTN_TL2=lt
                                        BTN_TR=rb
                                        BTN_TR2=rt
                                        BTN_SELECT=back
                                        BTN_START=start
                                        BTN_THUMBL=tl
                                        BTN_THUMBR=tr
                                        

                                        and

                                        this is what you want the buttons to do

                                        [ui-buttonmap]
                                        a=BTN_LEFT
                                        b=KEY_LEFTCTRL
                                        x=KEY_ENTER
                                        y=KEY_R
                                        lb=KEY_C
                                        lt=KEY_A
                                        rb=KEY_SPACE
                                        rt=KEY_D
                                        back=KEY_F5
                                        start=KEY_ESC
                                        tr=KEY_K
                                        tl=KEY_Y
                                        

                                        now i have a bunch of things you dont need so just delete them as you go.
