      I'm using a wired Xbox 360 controller and when I load up the Rolling Thunder rom (rthunder) using the lr-fba-next emulator there is no way to insert a coin.

      I loaded up the retroarch menu in game and while a button is assigned to player 2 coin - the option for player 1 coin simply doesn't exist. I tried switching emulators but none of the other emulators will even load the game.

      I did a bunch of searches online and I saw some other people reporting a similar issue. I tried adding the following line to the retroarch.cfg file in the \configs\arcade folder which some people had recommended but it didn't resolve the issue unfortunately.

      input_enable_hotkey_btn = 5

      Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

        I have noticed that as well that some roms run with the controler then others. I'm dealing with this same issue for other games
        Meme games are pretty buggy imo from what I have tested

          @Aabra If you mean this type of thing:
          http://blog.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/fba-retroarch-core-coin-controls/#post-93014

          then if you make a change to /arcade/retroarch.cfg it will affect all the emulators that you use against roms in the arcade roms folder. Which isnt necesairly an issue, but it means your hotkeys will change.

          The input_enable_hotkey_btn = 5 you refer to is basically changing the hotkey enable function to another button - but it must be valid - see what yours are here:
          /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/{controller-file-name}

          Please read the Docs before asking a new question.
