        sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/runcommand-onstart.sh

        (This template)

        sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv
        --evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•]
        --silent
        --detach-kernel-driver
        --force-feedback
        --deadzone-trigger 15%
        --deadzone 4000
        --mimic-xpad
        --evdev-absmap ABS_[•]=dpad_x,ABS_[•]=dpad_y
        --evdev-keymap BTN_[•]=a,BTN_[•]=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_[•]=back,BTN_[•]=start
        --dpad-only
        --ui-axismap lt=void,rt=void

          close
          you need this on the top or it will not know when to start the mapping

          if [ "$1" = "scummvm" ]
          then
          sudo killall >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 xboxdrv
          sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 \
              --evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•] \

            https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Universal-Controller-Calibration-&-Mapping-Using-xboxdrv/

            go to the

            Key-Mapping For Individual Emulators part to get a start on how the runcommand needs to look like

            but for now i think you should just put your mapping in a txt on your computer.

            there are ways to test it before you setup the run command

              --evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•] \

              (the dot)

                just use the event and the number so for you it will be event0
                i could never get the id-to work

                think you could send me a link or something for your controller.
                when you posted the event codes there are alot more buttons then i would of thought for a NES

                                it all good, lol

                                --evdev-keymap KEY_#305=a,KEY_#304=b,KEY_#307=x,KEY_#308=y,KEY_#310=tl,KEY_#311=tr,KEY_#314=back,KEY_#315=start \
                                

                                this is your keymap for the controller.

                                now with

                                --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT,b=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,back=KEY_ESC \
                                

                                you map what said buttons will do

                                again im still messing with the dpad

                                      when you post something like that
                                      put ```
                                      before and after
                                      then it will come up with the colored box around it

                                      like this
                                      

                                      just to help
