      Care to explain more ? You say you're not able to change the controls - is that it ? Or you're not able to save it per-game ?

        It should help to make things a bit clearer :)

          @melvin-fox Looks like some MAME 2016 weirdness. Have you tried using the MAME input menu (via Tab) ?

            @mitu you are right, with FBNeo it works just fine :/
            I found this thread:
            https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/26101/solved-can-t-alter-mame-2015-2016-controls
            and it seems that .rmp file might corrupt it but the problem is that in /opt/retropie/configs/arcade there is no rmp file related to mame2016.

              More likely a Mame2016 core bug - https://github.com/libretro/mame2016-libretro/issues/36.

                @mitu I don’t fully get it -someone submitted a fix on March 8 but it’s still not implemented to repo?!
                Update: I just compiled lr-Mame2015 and it acts the very same.

                  @melvin-fox No, it looks like someone submitted a bug report, with the intention of also submitting also fix, but I don't think the fix was added, since the bug report was not closed.

                    @mitu with Mame2016 I fully understand it but I have the same thing happening with Mame2015 which does not have this bug reported but still - it behaves the very same way.

                      @melvin-fox 2015 and 16 are likely the same libretro backend.

                      is there any particular reason you're using 15/16 rather than lr-mame (or my preference, standalone mame)?

                        @dankcushions it’s about performance. On 2016 I can play eg. Die Hard Arcade with minimal slowdowns during QTE but overall game is pretty playable. With current mame it works in around 10 fps. Apart from that I have Mame2016 romset and don’t need to find another source for that.
