      I have searched the internet and have not found anyone having the same issue I am having. I made a Bartop Arcade and am running retropie and several emulators. All of them work as expected except for Daphne. I only want to plat Dragons Lair and CliffHanger. After a bit of research I was able to successfully map all the buttons and got it working. The issue I am having is that the lag in the joystick makes it unplayable. I thought at first I was just horrible at the game but turns out the game doesn't see the actions from the joystick fast enough. If I play with the keyboard it works just fine. The joystick is absolutely mapped correctly because there are times it will see the action and make the move and I was able to confirm all 4 directions work. I am using Sansa Joysticks through a zero delay pad that the Retropie sees as "dragon" something or other. Anyway is there anyway to adjust for lag or is there another issue.

      Thank you
      Ken

        Dragon Rise encoders don't play well with Daphne.

          @dizmodawg so if I got a new encoder that would fix it? and if yes do you have a suggestion?

          Thanks again for your reply
