    The file you need to edit is retroarch.cfg in /opt/retropie/configs/all

    Here is mine for example, use it as a template. More config options here:
    https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/blob/master/retroarch.cfg

    Note ‘joypad_index’, this is the number your gamepad is assigned. Looking at your post above 0 should be right

    Connected to the pi using winscp and edited the retropie.cfg but its still not working.

    [quote=82892]Can you explain how you exit games with just the controller. I believe this part of your config is how you set it up:
    input_enable_hotkey_btn = “6”
    input_exit_emulator_btn = “7”
    I just want to know how you actually do it. Do you hold down Select and then press Start? If so, what about games like Super Mario World where you have to hold down both of those buttons to exit a level.
    Just curious how this actually works.
    Thanks,
    P[/quote]

    That is how that works and would override the function in the game you mentioned. To avoid this, you can map the hot key to one of the top buttons instead of select.

    Can you explain how you exit games with just the controller. I believe this part of your config is how you set it up:

    input_enable_hotkey_btn = “6”
    input_exit_emulator_btn = “7”

    I just want to know how you actually do it. Do you hold down Select and then press Start? If so, what about games like Super Mario World where you have to hold down both of those buttons to exit a level.

    Just curious how this actually works.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    most of the time (not always) after selecting the game I get a black screen. After I remove one of my two controllers the emulator starts immediately (I see the three boxes in the right bottom corner and the game gets loaded). Unfortunately in most games if I unplugged the second controller the 2nd player can’t move within the game.

    I use a B+ and installed the “newest” retropie a month ago. I use some fake playstation usb controllers which are recognized as dragonrise. I also tried to configure the opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg and even the cfg in the emulators directory. But my guess it that it is ignored because the hotkey + exit is also not working.

    Topic: Buffalo Classic USB Gamepad buttons backwards

    I followed the instructions found in this video to config my controller but ran into some issues.

    I am using a Buffalo Classic USB gamepad. After I finish the mapping tool some of my buttons are backwards. When I viewed the USB,2-axis8-buttongamepad.cfg file it showed ABXY wrong, I tried to manually change them to what I have below but the buttons were still wrong in game. What am I doing wrong? Start/Select also didn’t work at all in game, nor did the quit game shortcut I set up. Everything else works fine on my generic SNES USB controller.

    input_device = “USB,2-axis 8-button gamepad ”
    input_driver = “udev”
    input_b_btn = “2”
    input_y_btn = “3”
    input_select_btn = “6”
    input_start_btn = “7”
    input_up_axis = “-1”
    input_down_axis = “+1”
    input_left_axis = “-0”
    input_right_axis = “+0”
    input_a_btn = “1”
    input_x_btn = “0”
    input_l_btn = “4”

    Hi,

    Just tackled a similar issue, with a wired GPIO nes pads and USB snes pads.

    What made them all work with properly was:

    1. deleting (or commenting) the “input_player#_whatever=” in the
    /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg
    2. making seperate configuration files for each type of joystick in the
    /opt/retropie/emulators/RetroArch/configs/

    for example, I made this file for my USB snes pad:
    /opt/retropie/emulators/RetroArch/configs/USBGamepad.cfg

    
input_device = "USB Gamepad "
input_driver = "udev"

input_a_btn = "1"
input_b_btn = "2"
input_x_btn = "0"
input_y_btn = "3"
input_l_btn = "4"
input_r_btn = "5"
input_select_btn = "8"
input_start_btn = "9"
input_up_axis = "-1"
input_down_axis = "+1"
input_left_axis = "-0"
input_right_axis = "+0"

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "8"
input_exit_emulator_btn = "9"

    and my GPIO nes controller has another file (it’s a Japanese Famicom, and different from US wiring)
    /opt/retropie/emulators/RetroArch/configs/NESpad.cfg

    
input_device = "NES pad"
input_driver = "udev"

input_b_btn = "1"
input_select_btn = "2"
input_start_btn = "3"
input_up_axis = "-1"
input_down_axis = "+1"
input_left_axis = "-0"
input_right_axis = "+0"
input_a_btn = "0"

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "2"
input_exit_emulator_btn = "3"

    * I got the name of the device from running:
    udevadm info --query=all --n /dev/input/js0 --attribute-walk

    Hello!

    When I first built my RetroPie, I used a generic USB SNES controller and was able to get the hotkey functionality to work. When I switched to a new controller, I was able to get all of the button inputs to work successfully, but I can’t get the hotkeys to work properly. See below for an excerpt from my retroarch.cfg file (taken from /opt/retropie/configs/all).

    I verify that all buttons work, specifically start and select, but I’m not having any luck.

    Questions:
    1. Do you think I should create a brand new config file and start from scratch?
    2. If so, how can I do that? I’m happy to check out other links.
    3. Is there any other config file that I could update?
    4. Do you notice any issues with the configs below?
    5. Any other suggestions?

    I could help with mapping out the same controller to use different keys in the other emulators. But I am at a loss as to how to get RetroArch to understand what controller needs to be read in the main config file when you plug in a PS3 controller as player one, and ignore the mappings for the snes usb controller you had plugged in earlier.
    I also noticed there is a slight problem with mapping the PS3 controller for my build as if it writes it’s own config no matter what I change, I suspect it has something to do with not having enough power draw to the controller from the usb port (ps3 controller draws 300amps, but the usb from the pi can only supply 100amps).
    My guess is when you want to map a certain controller you would use input_device somewhere in the file?:

    # SNES CONTROLLERUSB
input_player1_joypad_index = 0
<strong>input_device = "USB,2-axis 8-button gamepad  "</strong>
input_driver = "udev"
input_b_btn = "1"
input_y_btn = "3"
input_select_btn = "6"
input_start_btn = "7"
input_up_axis = "-1"
input_down_axis = "+1"
input_left_axis = "-0"
input_right_axis = "+0"
input_a_btn = "0"
input_x_btn = "2"
input_l_btn = "4"
input_r_btn = "5"

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "6"
input_exit_emulator_btn = "7"

# PS3 CONTROLLERUSB
input_player1_joypad_index = 0
<strong>input_device = "Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller"</strong>
input_driver = "udev"
input_b_btn = "14"
input_y_btn = "15"
input_select_btn = "0"
input_start_btn = "3"
input_up_btn = "4"
input_down_btn = "6"
input_left_btn = "7"
input_right_btn = "5"
input_a_btn = "13"
input_x_btn = "12"
input_l_btn = "10"
input_r_btn = "11"
input_l2_btn = "8"
input_r2_btn = "9"
input_l_x_plus_axis = "+0"
input_l_x_minus_axis = "-0"
input_l_y_plus_axis = "+1"
input_l_y_minus_axis = "-1"
input_r_x_plus_axis = "+2"
input_r_x_minus_axis = "-2"
input_r_y_plus_axis = "+3"
input_r_y_minus_axis = "-3"

    *This is an example config and by no means how I use mine.*
    But then the problem starts as to which hotkeys get mapped to what controller? Because 6 and 7 are down and left on the ps3 controller, & select-start on the snes controller. So you try and map only the controls to the PS3 controller to be used with the PSX emulator inside the PSX Retroarch config file, right? Wrong! It still takes hotkeys from your main config file, and another config file from your controllers folder in the Retroarch emulator folder. Fine so you delete the controls in the main file, and also the controller config, but leave the file how you want it inside the PSX emu config, Wrong again!
    My main problem is no matter which files I manipulate, or even delete…I still get odd anomalies with using my PS3 controller in PSX Retroarch that forces the controller to use weird mappings even though I specifically set up the mappings I wanted for just that emulator with nothing else connected>
    I press R3 and it acts like TRIANGLE, I press L3 it acts like X…so I swap them, boot the game again and they are supposed to be switched but what do you know they register the same input anyway. I hook up my snes usb controller, delete some hotkeys from the PSX emulator, and add some back for the snes controller, and Bam! it works flawless.
    So in closing i am looking for a solution in the config file that would make it easy to play with what config you write and for Retroarch to actually use the correct one for the controller attached at the time…seems easy enough right?

    To fix an unanswered old post:
    Find this line and make sure it is uncommented>

    # Hold button down to rewind. Rewinding must be enabled.
input_rewind = r

    Next comment these lines so they look like this>

    #### Misc

# Enable rewinding. This will take a performance hit when playing, so it is disabled by default.
# rewind_enable = true

# Rewinding buffer size in megabytes. Bigger rewinding buffer means you can rewind longer.
# The buffer should be approx. 20MB per minute of buffer time.
# rewind_buffer_size = 10

# Rewind granularity. When rewinding defined number of frames, you can rewind several frames at a time, increasing the rewinding speed.
# rewind_granularity = 2

    Now at the bottom of your file add this>

    rewind_enable = true
rewind_buffer_size = 3
rewind_granularity = 2
input_enable_hotkey_btn = "6"
input_rewind_btn = "3"

    Replace the input_rewind_btn = “3” with whatever button you want to map it to. In my case it’s Select+Y.
    Now could anyone help me figure out why fast forward does not work no matter what I do?
    Hope that helps someone who is googling for an answer.

    Whenever I press the start button yellow text appears that says, “Starting Movie Record to “/home/pi/RetroPie/roms” also the player two left and down control a shader function as well as several other keys have strange functions in emulators.

    Did you run the setup script and register the controller? After that make sure you’re retroarch. Cfg file is pointed to the correct directory for auto detect configs /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/configs you can also edit that file to your liking (enable hotkeys and what not) hope this helps

    My retroarch.cfg file was looking in the wrong spot for the auto config files

    input_exit_emulator_btn = “6”

    to my controller file, and upon reboot I was able to use start+select to exit back into EmulationStation. I’m going to go start a new file in Earthbound and save in game and see if a .srm is created after exiting cleanly.

    Do your buttons representing “p,” “k,” and “f” cause emulators to behave strangely? For example “p” pauses the emulator and “f” shows me the command screen and when released goes back into the emulator. I deleted these in retroarch.cfg whenever they were listed as hotkeys so I cannot figure out why they behave strangely.

    Hi,

    Some fresh news, someone help me to fix the problem with retroarch.

    This is my configuration for two players:
    – into retroarch.cfg from /opt/retropie/configs/all (disable keyboard directions):

    input_player1_left = "nul"
input_player1_right = "nul"
input_player1_up = "nul"
input_player1_down = "nul"

    – into retroarch.cfg, (example:snes) /opt/retropie/configs/snes:

    input_driver = "udev"

input_enable_hotkey_btn = "21"
input_exit_emulator_btn = "22"

input_player1_joypad_index = "0"
input_player1_b_btn = "12"
input_player1_y_btn = "15"
input_player1_select_btn = "21"
input_player1_start_btn = "22"
input_player1_up_btn = "0"
input_player1_down_btn = "5"
input_player1_left_btn = "2"
input_player1_right_btn = "3"
input_player1_a_btn = "11"
input_player1_x_btn = "14"
input_player1_l_btn = "17"
input_player1_r_btn = "18"
input_player1_left_axis = "-0"
input_player1_right_axis = "+0"
input_player1_up_axis = "-1"
input_player1_down_axis = "+1"

input_player2_joypad_index = "1"
input_player2_b_btn = "12"
input_player2_y_btn = "15"
input_player2_select_btn = "13"
input_player2_start_btn = "22"
input_player2_up_btn = "0"
input_player2_down_btn = "5"
input_player2_left_btn = "2"
input_player2_right_btn = "3"
input_player2_a_btn = "11"
input_player2_x_btn = "14"
input_player2_l_btn = "17"
input_player2_r_btn = "18"
input_player2_left_axis = "-0"
input_player2_right_axis = "+0"
input_player2_up_axis = "-1"
input_player2_down_axis = "+1"

    So now, keyboard no more causing troubles with the two gamepads.
    d-pad 1 (NES30) is moving player 1
    d-pad 2 (FC30) is moving player 2

    But i still have an issue with pifba which using ‘joystick’ api. I can’t configure dpad, it is associate with keyboard arrows and only moving player one:

    [Joystick]
# Get codes from "jstest /dev/input/js0"
# from package "joystick"
A_1=0
B_1=1
X_1=3
Y_1=4
L_1=6
R_1=7
START_1=11
SELECT_1=10
#Joystick axis
JA_LR=0
JA_UD=1
#player 2 button configuration
A_2=0
B_2=1
X_2=3
Y_2=4
L_2=6
R_2=7
START_2=11
SELECT_2=2
#Joystick axis
JA_LR_2=0
JA_UD_2=1

    jstest tool recognize joystick as below:
    Driver version is 2.1.0.
    Joystick (8Bitdo NES30 GamePad) has 8 axes (X, Y, Z, Rz, Gas, Brake, Hat0X, Hat0Y)
    and 22 buttons (BtnX, BtnY, BtnZ, BtnTL, BtnTR, BtnTL2, BtnTR2, BtnSelect, BtnStart, BtnMode, BtnThumbL, BtnThumbR, ?, ?, ?, ?, (null), LeftBtn, RightBtn, MiddleBtn, SideBtn, ExtraBtn).
    Testing … (interrupt to exit)

    But when i am moving axes, there is no reaction…

    Into emulationtstation, when i try to configure gamepad, i have this message:
    INFO: The key you just pressed is not recognized by SDL. To help get this fixed, please report this to the SDL mailing list <> EVDEV KeyCode 304

    So please help me (i am close from my initial goal).
    For information, i have made an article (in french) about retropie/emulationstation (http://www.open-consoles-news.com/2014/10/raspberry-pi-realiser-une-retro-gaming.html), so i’d like to finalize it for 2 players :)

    Thanks in advance.

    Recently, a module for setting the RetroArch hotkey button configuration has been added to the RetroPie Setup Script: https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/476/files.

    I would like to know which default configuration you prefer? Option 1, 2, or 3 of the module?

    If you are using retroarch, you set the hotkeys as above.

    If you are talking about MAME, you can set it within the gui here:

    Hey RetroMarine, thanks for the answer!

    I’ve just now tried setting the retroarch.cfg to this:
    input_enable_hotkey_btn = f
    input_exit_emulator_btn = g

    The arcade buttons start and select are routed to those keyboard inputs.

    When I tried pressing Start and Select simuntaniously, nothing happend. Escape button still worked though.

    What do you think I might have done wrong?

    Type this into your retroarch.cfg: input_enable_hotkey_btn = input_exit_emulator_btn =

    This creates a hotkey button i.e. 8 = select button on a snes controller, and 9 = start button, so that when you hold select and press start it will exit emulator. Remember to only put a numerical value after the =

    Like so many others, I love the N64…which is why it’s so disheartening that Retropie doesn’t have a legit N64 emulator that actually works after the build/install. I used to use Project64 on my PC and that worked great…is there a reason that emulator isn’t the one being used on retropie? With Mupen64plus I have only been able to get Mario64 and Mariokart running decently. I’ve scoured the Internet for settings that would allow mupen to play more than a few games, but after trying them no such luck. Also…I don’t think ANYONE knows how to configure mupen64plus.cfg so that a game pad can actually exit the emulator and also use hotkeys to save/load states. I’ve tried everything! I have over 8,000 games on my retropie, yet only two of them are N64 games. It’s a damn shame.

    Hello all loving my retropie setup been up and running on snes nintendo GBA and genisis for a few weeks now. Everything has been smooth thus far. Decided to try my luck with PSX today. No Luck!!

    Anyways i have a few roms loaded up Bin/Cue files (tryed 7z but wouldn’t work at all) i have tried a few different BIOS with no luck currently running scph7502.bin

    Anyways when i try and load the cue or bios file it loads up (I think) but I have a blank screen it actually flips between blue and black (blue is the screens default no input color) no sound no picture but it will stay on this screen indefinitely until I exit (my normal way is hotkeys on my controller) when I exit all the system messages appear to be correct shows the name of the rom track length and what not shows that the correct BIOS was loaded but just no picture/audio. Any thoughts? am I missing a step? Any help would be greatly appriciated

    I’m having an issue with save states. They work totally fine while the game is loaded, however, when I exit the game the save states seem to disappear. I have hotkeys setup to exit the game with start + select.

    Even if I go directly back into the game, the save states will be lost and fail to load.

    Any ideas?

    UPDATE: I’ve managed to make the exit btn work.
    All I had to do was put those lines in /opt/retropie/config/snes/*.cfg file.

    input_enable_hotkey_btn = “3”
    input_exit_emulator_btn = “2”

    It’s strange, but for some reason, my Zero Delay USB encoder reads from snes config file for ALL emulators.

    The only emulator that I can’t manage to work exit buttons is MAME-PI.

    Hi!
    I purchased 2 of these USB SNES controllers: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JAU20W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
    I am just trying to set up SNES to start with, and then move on to other emulators. My retroarch.cfg file looks OK, and it seems like it should be working, yet the second controller remains unresponsive (Testing it on Super Mario Kart. It’s it’s fine in emulationstation itself).

    Here’s my main configuration:

    input_player1_joypad_index = "0"
input_player1_b_btn = "2"
input_player1_y_btn = "3"
input_player1_select_btn = "8"
input_player1_start_btn = "9"

input_player1_a_btn = "1"
input_player1_x_btn = "0"
input_player1_l_btn = "4"
input_player1_r_btn = "5"

input_enable_hotkey_btn = 8

input_player2_a_btn = "1"
input_player2_x_btn = "0"
input_player2_l_btn = "4"
input_player2_r_btn = "5"

    Here’s my SNES specific configuration:

    input_menu_toggle_btn = 5

input_enable_hotkey_btn = 8
input_exit_emulator_btn = 9

input_player1_a_btn = 1
input_player1_b_btn = 2

input_player2_right_axis = +0
input_player2_up_axis = -1

    The controller isn’t defective, because it works fine when it’s the only one plugged in. It just never seems to work with both plugged in.

    Any help?
    Thanks!

    Topic: How to save games in RetroPie / RetroArch

    in forum Everything else related to the RetroPie Project
    Floob
    Member

    I’ve just been playing with the save game option in RetroPie / RetroArch and this is what I have so far.

    There are 2 methods of saving games. One is using the “in game” save files, in the same way as you would if you were using the original hardware.
    The second method is to take a “snapshot” using the emulator itself, in this case RetroArch.

    I have found that when playing the games (that are emulated by RetroArch), when you make an “in game” save, i.e. in Zelda on the SNES, the *.srm file will automatically save correctly in the rom folder. The folder can be specified, but the rom folder is default. This will only work correctly if the permissions are fine, which they are by defaut (the pi user must be able to write files in the relevant rom folder).

    This means the next time you run the game, it will happily load the *.srm file and allow you to access your “in game” saves as normal.

    In addition to the game saving the *.srm file, you can set it to keep saving this every x seconds using the retroarch.cfg file and this line:
    autosave_interval =

    Whilst that wont make any difference to where the save happens in the game, it just ensures that it is regularly saved to the SD card – although I’m not sure it has a lot of value as I’m not using it and its working fine (although this may in part be due to me always making sure I exit the emulator cleanly, going back to Emulation Station).

    As I mention, the *.srm save works fine out the box for me, no config changes needed.
    You can verify by searching for *.srm files on the SD card.

    The second method of saving games is using “Save States”, the game itself doesnt have any concept of this, but the emulator (RetroArch) can use them.

    This is very useful for games that dont have a built in save facility, as it allows you to store the position you were in when you stop playing. This is again controlled in the retroarch.cfg file

    Here are the settings to auto save and/or auto load snapshots.

    # Automatically saves a savestate at the end of RetroArch lifetime.
# The path is $SRAM_PATH.auto.
# RetroArch will automatically load any savestate with this path on startup if 
savestate_auto_load is set.
# savestate_auto_save = false
# savestate_auto_load = true

    You can save and load these with the keyboard using the settings

    # Saves state.
    # input_save_state = f2
    # Loads state.
    # input_load_state = f4

    or map them to your joypad (in the controller config) using hotkeys: for example
    input_enable_hotkey_btn = 8
    input_save_state_btn = 5
    input_load_state_btn = 4

    If anyone is interested I could put a video together showing how this works.

    Ok, I’ve managed to sort out the analogue stick issue.

    I set a hotkey to let me go into the actual emulator menu when its running and then there are options to set the input as a joypad with analogue. Then you can write those settings out to a new config. I then opened that new config up and copied all the input settings into my main retroarch.cfg which then lets all retroarch emulators boot up with analogue enable by default. Still no vibration feedback but I’m thinking this isn’t a working option on PSX emulation via retroarch? Either way I’m not too fussed as PSX emulation ain’t something I’ll really bother with.

    If anyones interested, here is the input settings I use. Just copy and paste these to the end of your retroarch.cfg and providing you are using a wireless 360 controller it should enable analogue by default and it also lets you use the sticks to control d-pad which is useful for SNES etc:

    input_device_p1 = “0”
    input_player1_joypad_index = “0”
    input_libretro_device_p1 = “5”
    input_player1_analog_dpad_mode = “1”

    input_player1_select_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_start = “enter”
    input_player1_start_btn = “9”

    input_player1_l_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_r = “w”

    input_player1_r_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_l2 = “nul”
    input_player1_l2_btn = “6”
    input_player1_l2_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_r2 = “nul”

    input_player1_r2_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_l3 = “nul”
    input_player1_l3_btn = “11”
    input_player1_l3_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_r3 = “nul”
    input_player1_r3_btn = “12”
    input_player1_r3_axis = “nul”
    input_player1_l_x_plus = “nul”
    input_player1_l_x_plus_btn = “nul”
    input_player1_l_x_plus_axis = “+0”

    [quote=81895]ok, so you’re trying to get the analogue sticks to work with the ps1 games as well? could be the emulator itself.[/quote]

    That’s what I’m trying to achieve yes.

    I configure the xbox controller retroarch settings through the Retro-Pie setup where it recognises the analogue axis and registers them ok. But, it doesn’t seem to enable the analogue axis when running PSX games? Neither do I get any vibration feedback which I assumed would also work?

    Odd thing is that as I mentioned before, clicking the analogue sticks (L3 and R3) work ok in the psx emulator.

    What am I missing?

    I even pasted the controller config at the bottom of the main retroarch.cfg file as deatailed below but still not working:

    input_player1_joypad_index = “0”
    input_player1_b_btn = “1”
    input_player1_y_btn = “3”

    input_player1_r_y_plus_axis = “+3”
    input_player1_r_y_minus_axis = “-3”

    input_enable_hotkey_btn = “8”
    input_state_slot_decrease_btn =”6″

    Hi everybody I am new to all things RetroPie and RP but im working It out slowly. Here is the situation I have built my own USB NES controller out of an old NES controller and the PCB from an old USB keyboard…. Basically I traced out the traces on the keyboard and then soldered the corresponding contacts to the buttons on a NES controller PCB so when you press a on the controller you are pressing a on the keyboard It works flawlessly in all matters of functionality however I cannot figure out how to setup a button press combination to exit the emulator I have tried adding the following to the retroarch.cfg but no luck so far

    #input_enable_hotkey_btn = d
    #input_exit_emulator_btn = kp_enter
    (select button is mapped to “d” and start is mapped to kp_enter)
    I think it may be an issue with the default keyboard settings but basically what I want is to hold select(d) and press start(kp_enter) and exit the emulator…. any help would be great.

    Question 2, how do I configure the second control pad? I’ve tried copying the above and pasting, but changing player1 to player2 and the joypad_index = “1”, but when this code is in place it controls both P1 and P2 from the one control pad.

    Any ideas or pointers welcome.
