      @sirhenrythe5th ok..lol think i am getting there..just one little thing that confuses me.

      When you say you used the "sudo nano" command what do you mean?

        @sirhenrythe5th ahh do you mean open terminal and type in sudo nano followed by the path where the file is?

        So in your example you typed:

        sudo nano /home/pi/amiberry inputs/

        is this correct?

          @chris3535 this is the command used to open and modify a file within Raspbian/Linux.

          What you can do to make it a bit easier:
          open MC -> navigate to the file you want to modify -> press "F2" to open the on screen menu -> navigate to "do something with the file" -> and type "sudo nano" ;)

              @chris3535 you are welcome Chris!
              I was also very annoyed by the default button mapping and was glad to find this way to get it sorted.
              Feel free to ask again if you get stuck ;)

                @sirhenrythe5th Thank you i will!

                i have another kinda issue but ill open a new thread for that later if i cant sort it.

                Basically some games (wings for example) seems to map itself to the mouse (i have a pi400) and i have not been able to make it work with the joystick yet. I had a quick play with the settings last night and i assume its something to do with the controls section in amiberry but couldn't get it to work, however i didn't spend that much time and will mess about tonight before bothering anyone on here .

                Thanks again !!

                  @sirhenrythe5th Sorry to bother you again, so I have made a amiberry folder and copied the config file over into it.

                  I am in the config file now and I see the following

                  Input_start_btn = "1"
                  Input_exit_emulator_btn = "1"
                  input_b_btn = "0"
                  input_reset_btn = "0"
                  input_a_btn = "3"

                  which one do I change? and to what?

                    The Fire-Buttons are "input_b_btn="0"" & "input_a_btn="3"".
                    These two have to be changed to fit with your button layout (i use 8BitDOs, so my layout wont help you).
                    Try & Error will help too :), just try the button numbers until it is as you like.
