      Hi,

      I am trying to play some Mame games and it seems that some of them get their Axis's messed up.

      So the up/down relates to left/right in these Games, but it's not as though you can just turn the joystick round by 90deg as the left/right is also swapped.

      This happens for q few games.

      Star Wars
      Return of the Jedi etc

      Even remapping the controller using the tab menu doesn't help.

      I am using a generic USB controlled, with a self built Arcade button/joystick combo and it works correctly in the GUI and also with most games

      I've searched around and cannot find a topic that matches this issue.

      Details of my setup here.

      Pi Model or other hardware: 3
      Power Supply used: (If using a Pi) Standard 2ma charger - Ankhar
      RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): 4.1.14
      Built From: Installed onto of already setup OS using guide from here.

      Controller used: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01EMYHZDY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

      Log found in /dev/shm/runcommand.log (if relevant):
      Guide used: (Mention if you followed a guide)
      File: (File with issue - with FULL path)

      Many thanks and please let me know if there is any other info you need.
