FBA coin button

[g0nz0uk]

Hello,

Strange one here, I am using FBA on Retropie 3.4 and have 2 Xbox 360 wireless controllers setup. If I start a game like Street Fighter 2 and press the select button on the controller to add a coin (button 8) it doesn’t work even though in the Retroarch input settings for player 1 it is set, however if I turn on the 2nd controller the select button works and I can add coins.

The select buttons does work for player 1 as I can use it to bring the Retroarch menu up and also exit the emulator (select + start).

Any ideas?

Thanks

It’s all explained on the wiki:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/FAQ#why-cant-i-insert-coins-in-arcade-emulators

It’s really not that hard to comprehend if you’d take the time to use the resources available to you.

Direct quote:

but in the future in order to exit mame I would then have to press left bumper+start as i changed my hotkey to the left bumper.
