Outrun control issue

[Colstar]

The rom loads fine and I can add credit and start the game but that's all. I have no control of the car, I can't turn or even accelerate. Is this a issue with the rom or simply a configuration problem?

@colstar you can set the controls in the settings menu.

cant thing of the exact spot, but its there

@exarkuniv Thanks but my controller works fine in every other games, it's just Outrun that is not responding.

@colstar you didn't mention your emulator. a quick guess would be that you are trying to play the arcade version through digital controls, however the game expects analog controls (most arcade racing games do) and, by default, some emulators won't convert your digital controls into the analog controls the game is expecting (ofc, such conversion will cause a loss of control precision). FWIW, recent versions of FBNeo should handle this just fine by default : directions are mapped to both dpad and left analog, acceleration/brake are mapped to R2/L2 which can be either digital or analog.

@barbudreadmon Thanks, will load it up and take a look. :)

Just checked and it runs just fine, as hard as I remember it being! Thanks 👍

@colstar I actually placed a few other roms that were not running under MAME into the FBNeo folder and that worked fine! :)

Romsets have to match the emulator and its version, i recommend reading retropie's arcade documentation.
