          @escc1986 ok im taking a look at everything that you gave me. it does seems like you have all the info for us to get this up and going. i just need a bit to remember how to go about it this way.

          i go about using xdrv a different way now, but we will get you up and going.

              @escc1986 step 1

              remove this from rc.local

              sudo nano /etc/rc.local
              
              sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \
                  --evdev /dev/input/event2 \
                  --silent \
                  --detach-kernel-driver \
                  --force-feedback \
                  --deadzone-trigger 15% \
                  --deadzone 4000 \
                  --mimic-xpad \
                  --evdev-absmap ABS_HAT0X=dpad_x,ABS_HAY0Y=dpad_y \
                  --evdev-keymap BTN_SOUTH=a,BTN_EAST=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_TL2=back,BTN_TR2=start \
                  --dpad-only \
                  --ui-axismap lt=void,rt=void \
                  --ui-buttonmap tl=void,tr=void,guide=void \
                  &
              

              still working on the rest

                @ExarKunIv also what difference did you see with the scummvm and the scummvm-sdl.

                  Sorry if this is a Noob Question

                  To delete that file

                  I go to directory

                  /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv

                  Sudo rm xboxdrv

                  Is that correct ?

                  About the other Scumm I did experience freeze ups and I'm not sure why , but in the end I guess I just want to learn how to configure xboxdrv as a mouse ... it's about learning then having fun by playing after I appreciate the help and learn and then play the game

                      just use sudo nano /etc/rc.local and remove

                      sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv \
                          --evdev /dev/input/event2 \

                          --deadzone-trigger 15% \
                          --deadzone 4000 \
                          --mimic-xpad \
                          --evdev-absmap ABS_HAT0X=dpad_x,ABS_HAY0Y=dpad_y \
                          --evdev-keymap BTN_SOUTH=a,BTN_EAST=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_TL2=back,BTN_TR2=start \
                          --dpad-only \
                          --ui-axismap lt=void,rt=void \
                          --ui-buttonmap tl=void,tr=void,guide=void \
                          &
                      

                      this is what you have in your txt of what you did.

                      as for me i have not played much with either. but im finding that with my 8bitdo pro 2 the scummvm already has my analog stick mapped as a mouse. not sure how.i think cuz it now supports it as a mouse from defult now that im looking into it

                          with that in there is would override everything setting that the pie uses.

                                    --evdev is the code the controller sends out
                                    --ui is what we want the controller to do.

                                    so exampler from mine
                                    i had the a key mapped as the left mouse button

                                    --evdev-keymap KEY_#304=a
                                    
                                    --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT

                                          the buttons are the easy part. the dpad is tricky for me.
                                          so i think work on getting the other buttons mapped. as i do some playing on my end

                                            sorry to be a headach ...

                                            i guess the thing that confuses me the most is the steps

                                            like there is alot of steps unless it can be simplfyed somehow

                                            yes the d pad is what confuese me alot too
