Thank you so much!

[rasmushauschild]

Thanks a lot!
It worked for me too!

Hi, sorry for not answering!
So I got it to work perfectly by editing some config files, as you wrote!
Thank you so much for your help!

I’m not home right now, but I’ll try to disable emulation station as you wrote when I get home :)

[rasmushauschild]

Yes, it does that every where except emulationstation.

Hi, So I actually got the thumbstick working, by copying and pasting the analog thumbstick code from a PS3 controller-config file. But when I try to walk around in super mario 64 he’s walking so slow. I think this is because my thumbstick is the same as you would find I a PSP (it’s very small compared to a regular thumbstick).
So how can I change the code, so retroarch knows the max value of the thumbstick (so that when I press it all the way the forward Mario will run (as if played with an original n64 gamepad) instead of walking very slow.
Thanks

Hi, I tried to create the new “joypadtest” in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads. At first it didn’t work, but I then changed the iproduct/name to the one shown in jstest, and it worked! I got the yellow text, and my gamepad was fully functional in any retroarch game! Now the only thing left to do is to get the analog thumbstick to work. Could I just copy-paste the part, coding for the analog joypad from another config-file in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads?

Now it’s the teensy, that is in the “/home/pi/.emulationstation/es_temporaryinput.cfg”.
Here’s the new picture: http://minifactory.dk/test.html
You’ll see, that it has only 2 analog axes from the thumbstick, this is because it wont let me register both up and down or left and right in emulationstation, however in the retroarch controller setup/configuration it will sometimes accept all directions.
Thanks

[rasmushauschild]

Sure, thanks

[rasmushauschild]

Hi, I’ll try that config-file tomorrow.
Thank you so much, for putting this much effort into helping me out! :)

A very important thing for me is to have a full analog thumbstick, since I love n64 games. And I don’t think you can have that, if the Teensy is programmed as a keyboard, but I might be wrong?
In the directory “/home/pi/.emulationstation/es_temporaryinput.cfg” there is a configuration-file for my keyboard. i’ve posted a picture of the file here: http://minifactory.dk/test.html
Thanks again :)

Hi, it seems like I can’t upload any images to this forum…
I have uploaded both images of the jstest on my own website: http://minifactory.dk/test.html
sorry for the delay :)

The iProduct “value” is: 2 Serial/Keyboard/Mouse/Joystick
the Jstes is almost unreadeble on my Mac, so I also took picture of the screen with the raspberry pi. I’ll upload both. Also when I move the thumbstick all the text and values scroll down the screen – not like the jstest I can do with my SNES USB gamepad.

Also in my last post I wrote: Could it be because the name of the gamepad (TeensyduinoSerial/Keyboard/Mouse/Joystick) includes “/”? I think that Retroarch gets confused, and thinks that the name of my gamepad is a directory. However in the output, when I type lsusb, all “/” are replaced by “+”.
What do you think, could this be the reason why Retrach doesn’t save my gamepad config-file?

Do you have any idea if this could be the case?
Thanks

[rasmushauschild]

Sure :)
When i type lsusb with the Teensy gamepad plugged in it says:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 413c:2107 Dell Computer Corp.
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 16c0:0487 VOTI Teensyduino Serial+Keyboard+Mouse+Joystick

The Bus 001 Device 005 is my gamepad
Also I think I might know why retroarch won’t save the controller config-file. Could it be because the name of the gamepad (TeensyduinoSerial/Keyboard/Mouse/Joystick) includes “/”? I think that Retroarch gets confused, and thinks that the name of my gamepad is a directory. However in the output, when I type lsusb, all “/” are replaced by “+”.
What do you think, could this be the reason why Retrach doesn’t save my gamepad config-file?
Thank you in adavnce

Hi again. To get the iproduct value, should I just try to type lsusb -v in the home directory? The file that you’re linking to is the USBGamepad.cfg in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads right?
If so, I only see “code” for one directional control, and my gamepad has both an analog thumbstick and a controll cross. I believe, that the axes up, down, left and right in the USBGamepad.cfg file are for a control cross? Can I add an analog thumbstick to the USBGamepad.cfg file? If so, then how?
Thanks

[rasmushauschild]

Hi.
The jstest displays all the buttons and analog axes and their number/mapping.
Yes, the teensy board that i’m using is just the same as in that toturial. However I didn’t write my script in HEX, but in the Arduino IDE. Also my controller has been made from parts, if that makes any difference :)
Tank you in advance

[rasmushauschild]

Ben Heck Show did one

Hi I’ve also made a Teensy Gamepad for my portable rpi.
It has a bunch of tactile switches and one analog joystick.
It all works perfectly fine on my Mac, but when I try to configure it in Retropie, Left and Up does not work on the analog joystick??
I have no idea why, the joystick is just a regular X, Y axis one.
Any help will be greatly appreciated :)

[rasmushauschild]

Yea, I have the exact same problem myself!
But I can’t find anyone with a solution!!

[rasmushauschild]

Hi Floob.
I have tried all the commands but they all resultat in an error message “no such file directory. Do you know why?

[rasmushauschild]

thank you so much, it works now :)
