Cannot set enable hotkey button with saturn controller

edmaul69

@MetalMilitia i would make exit the middle top button. The least likely button to accidently hit while pressing start.

MetalMilitia

Start is 9 and the top middle button is 3.

ok now quit out of jtest by pressing CTRL + C

After you have done this

type in "sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/" WITHOUT pressing enter.

Than press tab 2 times until the tree shows you all your controller

than write in the controller you want to reconfigure:

for example
"sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/Nintendo\ Wii\ Remote\ Pro\ Controller.cfg" and dont forget to put backslashes in front of every space like I did

And tell me if the cfg. file opened

@MetalMilitia
Well I have to go to sleep now, so I'll just assume everything worked up to that point.
Now edit input_enable_hotkey_btn = " " --> input_enable_hotkey_btn = "9"
and input_exit_emulator_btn = " " --> input_exit_emulator_btn = "3"

then press CTRL + X
Ther will be a prompt, asking if you want to save. Press Y. There should be another prompt asking if you want to save over the old file press ENTER. And that's it.

Should work now.

Sorry about that! Had to step away for a bit yesterday. I will give this a shot today. Thanks for all the help!
