ANSWERED: Button remapping (general & specific questions)
-
@polishzeus Complementing the information: doing what you suggested in your Question 2 is a bad idea because it will mess the buttons used to navigate through RGUI. The core input remapping is a better approach. ;-)
-
@polishzeus when you set up your controller i think you set it up wrong. In emulationstation you arent supposed to set up a,b,x,y based on your controller. You are supposed to set it up based on a snes controller layout. You will find a lot of systems screwed up with it configured wrong. A and b are reversed on a snes controller and x and y are reversed.

That would also work but I wanted to reserve the option to put ps1 and/or psp games on the Retropie and I'd want the buttons to match the controller I'm using. But as I said, that's a good idea
@meleu Yeah, when I first experimented with putting that stuff in, I quickly realized that this was the wrong way to go and backed out (then came to these forums).
Thanks again to all for responding. I can't believe it took me this long to join these forums!

@polishzeus they wont match on psx and psp unless you set it up like a snes controller. Trust me it will come out right on the systems setting it up like a snes controller.

@polishzeus please look at this:

@edmaul69 I definitely see what you're saying. Since I've already gone through the (not-so-much) trouble of mapping the cores, I'll keep that in the back pocket. I'm not even sure I'll get around to putting psp games in there. So much NES, Sega, and SNES to devour before then!
-
@polishzeus just so you know mapping the cores creates a headache when you want to add different types of controllers. The method i showed you makes using different controllers more universal
-
@edmaul69 Makes sense. Though I know I will only stick to the 360 wireless controllers indefinitely. Thanks again.

@polishzeus at least you chose a controller worthy of being "the one"
