Here it is, I've updated via setup script
[...]This means the pre-requisites have been installed for the new script. Can you exit EmulationStation, connect your keyboard (or use a SSH session) and run:
/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/joy2key_sdl.py kcub1 kcuf1 kcuu1 kcud1 0x0a 0x20 0x1b 0x00 kpp knp -dIt should print a few debug messages and the controller (PS3) configuration. Try pressing the buttons/d-pad/joysticks and see if they get registered and produce any action. If any errors appear, please post them here.
EDIT: fixed the script path

opt retropie confligs all retroarch-joypads DragonRise Inc. imput_device = "DragonRise Inc. Generic [..]
I don't see the rest of the info: what RetroPie version, how did you install it, etc. - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

sorry for that:
Pi 4 4gb
Power Supply: apple macbookpro m1 power supply
RetroPie Version: 4.7.16
Built From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website
USB Devices connected: 2 x arcade sticks with 16 buttons (8 for each player) (dragon rise controller), usb keboardi did the update via the retropie-setup within retropie and did a complete update for everything.

I have the same problem since I updated the script. the problem is also there when it’s time to choose an emulator when loading a game.
I’m using a teensy lc as controller.
-
@dteam The
joy2keyscript has been updated also recently - which version of RetroPie do you have ? Otherwise, the same answer as above - run the test and see if your gamepad is detected correctly and generates keyboard inputs when operated.EDIT: if your version is 4.7.18, then the script path is different:
/opt/retropie/admin/joy2key/joy2key_sdl.pythe rest of the arguments are the same.

Here it goes
pi@retropie:~ $ /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/joy2key_sdl.py kcub1 kcuf1 kcuu1 kcud1 0x0a 0x20 0x1b 0x00 kpp knp -d -bash: /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/joy2key_sdl.py: No such file or directory -

Are you sure you're running RetroPie 4.7.16 ? The path has changed recently - see my reply above.

Sorry, I' ve updated to 4.7.18 while trying to fix, used the command with the new path and it is the same:
pi@retropie:~ $ /opt/retropie/admin/joy2key/joy2key_sdl.py kcub1 kcuf1 kcuu1 kcud1 0x0a 0x20 0x1b 0x00 kpp knp -d -bash: /opt/retropie/admin/joy2key/joy2key_sdl.py: No such file or directory -
@nogz Go in the the
coresection of the packages in RetroPie-Setup and check if thejoy2keymodule is installed. If it's not, then install it and repeat the test:
-
@mitu it was not installed, after installing it everything works fine again
Thanks for the support, really appreciatted!

Well, it's good that you got it working.
Now the question is why it wasn't installed automatically during upgrade ? Do you remember which version you where running before the upgrade that broke the menu navigation ?
-
@mitu thanks again
If I am not mistaken my last update was about 2 weeks ago and I was running .16 version.
I am pretty much sure the issue happened when I fetched the latest Retropie Setup Script, from this exact point on the controller stopped working as I could not confirm the prompt (disclaimer message). I can also confirm I have not changed nor updated any of the core modules separately. In Setup. -
-
@mitu yes, just like you described
-
With the joy2key core package, it works. It had not been installed. Thank you!!!
-
Its working again. Thanks for the help.

@nogz Hi, did you resolve your controller issue? I ask because I just updated Retropie and now my Logitech Gamepad F310 controller has dissapeared :-(
Retropie runs up but I cannot navigate the menus and there are no messages at the bottom of the Retropie screen prompting what controller buttons to press.
I am at a loss and somewhat annoyed as I have spent days and days getting all my roms recognised and artwork downloaded etc and it was at last starting to all come together and now this.... -
@mitu hello, I tried both of the paths in the terminal session and they did not work, and I also checked for Joy2key core package installed (even updated it manually via binary).

@greenhawk84 And your issue is ... ?
-
@mitu oh yes, well my joystick and buttons no longer control the Update menus. I tried the methods suggested here. Unless I missed something ?
