      I have a home made arcade setup that i used two usb encoders to make and they go under dragonsrise inc. generic usb joystick. I tried playing some games in the final burn alpha emulator and most of the buttons i can live with but the directions for the joystick are pretty messed up. Example, Up is left, down is right, left is up, right is down. How do i fix this.

        @Akil313 said in Help with FBA and controller:
        What version of fba?

        Look at the name between parenthesis in the box showed right after you start the game, like advmame-1.4 here:
        runcommand

          If it's pifba, you have to edit the /opt/retropie/configs/fba/fba2x.cfg and change the following lines

          #Joystick axis
          JA_LR=0
          JA_UD=1
          .
          .
          .
          #Joystick axis for player 2
          JA_LR_2=0
          JA_UD_2=1
          

          Switch the 0s and 1s.

            Oddly enough i used to get that message of what emulator im using but now i dont ever see it i dont know why. It only stays black then it goes to the loading of the game.
