RGBCommander u360 not setting maps to ROMs

[citaria]

Hello all,
I am having some trouble getting RGBCommander to switch my Ultimarc 360 Ultrastik to load various maps for games such as Qbert or Sinistar. RGBCommander will light up my buttons even switch my Servostik between 4 and 8 way but I can’t seem to get it to switch the maps on the Ultrastik for specifics Roms IE Sinistar and Qbert via the “Way” command in the xml file.

The Ultrastik 360 is setup, shows up on jstest properly and I’ve managed to use it as a second player or even a second joystick for aiming on Robotron. I can use the RGBCommander console to manually switch it between modes even analog but to set the right map when I load into a specific map. I’ve checked the log file and I see the Ultrastik being communicated with with no errors it just says it’s in the proper mode IE 8-way mode when it loads into Sinistar. I’ve read that RGBCommander has issues with Retroarch so I’ve experimented with Advmame running sinistar but no luck there either.

Does anyone have an idea what might cause this?

Thanks!

Oh and some info:

Some info on my setup:

• Raspberry Pi 4b 4GB
• IPac Ultimate IO
• Control Panel has Servostik and an Ultrastik 360
• Retropie v4.7.1
• Emulator Retroarch, Mame 2003 plus
• Started with the CRT Blast 128gb dual monitor image
