Joystick Inverted in piFba NEED HELP

[riggatrigga]

ive been banging my head against the wall with this problem for a couple of weeks now searching through forums for help i built a cabinet with joysticks and buttons and have been successful on getting all the emulators working except for pifba it inverts my up/down on my joysticks and cant seem to figure out how to solve it.

ive edited the fba2x.cfg file a thousand times now and nothing seems to invert the joystick axis does anyone know the code combination i need to invert the up/down

heres my latest cfg file everything works except for inverted up/down

Did you ever discover a solution? Right now my left/right is inverted in pifba.

I’m having the same issue.

Joystick is inverted……
I’m using a THT sub encoder 2 player.

Did you ever resolve this??

It doesn’t work…..

I am going to have to switch my wires… To fix the inverted joystick…

The other issue I am having is getting 2 players to work in PiFBA.
The THT usb encoder is mapped to js0 for both controllers…
The joysticks are “0”,”1″ + “2”,”3″ both use + & – 32767 respectively.
Buttons are from 0 to 17…..

Ran a jtest and all are responsive.(other emu work)
But PiFBA does not recognise the second player.

See cfg file.

Any help would be good?.

ALSO…….

I’ve READ that you can edit the /rpi/fba_player.cpp as setout on

https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Troubles-with-the-Xin-Mo-Controller

apparently the XinMo + THT are similar.

I’m not sure where to find the cpp file… is it already on retropie image?? or do I need to compile it?? if so…. how do you compile it??

System is nearly setup… see attached image of my first Cab build….
Big shoutout to floob and others on the forum.
