Issue with 8bit Do SN30 Pro Bluetooth gamepad
-
@IGA Which games/cores/emulators are you trying to get force feedback on?
-
Make sure you have an up-to-date RetroPie installation, otherwise you'll get an outdated
xpadneodriver.After you paired it via Bluetooth, test the controller with
jstestand see if L/R are detected. Run from the command line (either from the console or via SSH.jstest /dev/input/js0and press the buttons to see if they register. You can interrupt the test by pressing
Ctrl-C. -

- dreamcast\ps1: PCSX ReARMed\ duckstation. Redream for dreamcast. Any games that supported it...
-
@mitu could you remind how to up date installation - i've forgot (i don't need and want update all retropie at all, cause now after my last update work fine and i don't want to configure something again, that could need to be configurated after new update or something else - i just need update installer only to install new xpadneo)

Ok then.

@IGA With the force feedback, i'll remind myself how to set that up for my 8bitdo Pro 2 as it should probably be the same as the older version. What firmware are you on btw? And force feedback works on windows in retroarch or redream or any other emulators?

At windows and retroarch feedback works well as a retropie with Xinput (but in Xinput mode emulation station on retopie can't recognize both triggers buttons). At micro-sd flash card with recalbox all work fine too - and vibration and all buttons
How find out what a firmware in btw? What is btw?))

Well, i've go to retropie setup, then make Update Retropie-Setup script. Go to mange packages\manage drivers packages and remove xpadneo. Then install once again - got:

@IGA Just had a quick google, does this solve your problem?
You mentioned you're using lr-pcsx2-rearmed and duckstation, do you mean lr-duckstation? Also in redream's menu can you map your controller triggers manually? As it seems the issue is in emulationstation rather than retroarch. And given L2 R2 don't do a lot in emulationstation you don't really need them working.

yes. Exactly in emulationstation cause i can't remap l2 and r2 in menu of E.S. And seems to be xinput driver too,
About this video tutorial fix - is bad solution for me, cause i use several 360 gamepads, that work correctly, and when i need or want to choose them i'll need to remap buttons in retroarch each time again - it's sucks
Why at recalbox this gamepad work fine by default? - maybe i should took some drivers files from there and replaced them on retropie or something like this??

And even does it is worked i won't do like this - cause i wan't remap buttons each time in each emulators when i want to use any others gamepads - it's nconvenient. For a what? - Xinput there , and Xinput there - all layout the same - comfortable. But if use Dinput, yes, in this way we need change all layout buttons. That why nobody use D input now.
Ok. maye if no methods to solve problem with Xinput, maybe there are methods to get vibration in Switch mode on Retropie?

Hi!
Once again problem with another 8bitdo controller))
At this time i've got NEO GEO gamepadAnd all works fine, but now with system menu button (hotkey) has issue! When i press it in game - it's work like quit (maybe it registries already as start+hotkey button to exit).
At retropie's home menu this button menu it's work normal - system menu has appeared. But in retroarch, in game - exit.
Even if bind hotkey in any another button such as L1 for example, it still work as still same system button not L1 at gamepad in game....Also I just noticed, that buttons C and D are work in turbo mode as default. I've supposed that my controller is broken or corrupt, but when i've plugged it to PC this buttons wok correctly (no turbo). Unfortunately, i can't test system buttons on PC (star and heart), cause they don't work at Windows
Please tell ,e how could solve this problem, if it possible at all.
-
solved with neogeo gamepad: the solution of the problem was throw away 2.4 dongle and connect gamepad through standard pi Bluetooth - work fine
-
but if somebody told me how to make vibration and all buttons work at SN30 at last, i was very very glad...))
-
I want to bring up this topic again!
As I have noticed from experience, at SWITCH mode sn30pro + retropie could has much delay! And it's awful :(
So, in 2024 year, could someone tell how to get work sn30 at XINPUT mode? ( with both working Triggers and "hotkey" buttons)
