      been working on this prob a month, researching here and online and utube
      have everything up and running roms ect. but started with a usb gamepad then went to usb xarcade jsticks . will work limited with standard config from main screen ie: up down start select but need help with player 2 stuff and some of the other button configs, new to this as always been a windows/dos guy. slowly relearning the commands and editing via putty and nano.
      retropie version 4.1.16 seems to be different than the directions in forums and xarcade is no help.. so many config files ie:retroarch.cfg in forums are like
      input_player1_a = t
      input_player1_b = r
      input_player1_y = q
      input_player1_x = w
      but mine are like
      input_player1_a = "t"
      input_player1_b = "r"
      input_player1_y = "q"
      input_player1_x = "w"
      does it make a difference?
      also seemed to have lost my keyboard config in retropie setup option 316?
      could anybody help me learn or help me walk thru this?
