I’ve had the RPi for about 2 weeks and it works great. My PS2 controller works perfectly except the exit emulator button. I’ve tried editing retroarch.cfg with the
# input_hotkey_btn = # input_exit_emulator_btn =
With the corresponding number (with and without quotations) but to no avail.
I’ve read countless posts about this and tried many things but it’s still not working. I always have to use a keyboard and hit the escape key to return to ES.
I’m a noob to Linux and most of coding, so please excuse me if I’m doing something wrong.
Hi folks,
im trying to do a gameboy classic mod (the grey fat one) i want to replace the hardware with a raspberry pi, an accu pack a 3,5″ display and some more stuff.
i want to emulate the games with RetroPie. For e.g. gameboy advance games it is nessesarry to use x/y buttons to play a game. But according to the layout of the old gamebay: it has not an x or y button. can i config the retropie as followed?:pressing select and A => R
pressing select and B => Lis it possible to work with input_enable_hotkey_btn or something?
hope you guys can tell me that this is possible, because this will keep me away from buying additional buttons :P
thank you verry much :)

Hi everyone:
I have my controller config solved (per my last post), however I’m running in to one incredibly annoying mapping issue.
The input_menu_toggle mapping is not working. I’ve tried multiple keys and nothing works. My current hotkey config is as follows:
input_enable_hotkey_btn = “8”
input_menu_toggle = “11”
input_exit_emulator_btn = “9”
input_save_state_btn = “6”
input_load_state_btn = “7”
input_volume_up_axis = “+3”
input_volume_down_axis = “-3”As it sits, my hotkeys for volume, saving, and loading as well as exiting the emulator work perfectly, its just the menu toggle button that doesn’t work. I’m not sure if its related to the rest of my config, a typo, or a new input_menu_xxxx that I’m unaware of, but I need a second/third set of eyes on my code. Please help.
My entire config is as follows:

Hello,
So I’ve got got my Raspberry pi a few days ago. Never used linux before. Complete noob.
However! I have gotten retropie loaded, have it working quite well with my gamepad (using these).
I currently only have one gamepad.
Ok. So I know Super Mario All-Stars is a bit broken. It seems to switch the controller to second player whenever the game is started.
In order to fix this, I’ve heard that you can modify the controller so player 2 doesn’t exist but that this can mess up other games..
So I made just this one rom run off of “pisnes” instead of just the snes emulator. I then created a secondary config file for pisnes for the controller input. I’ve tested this config file and know that it is running the correct one.
However, I am still unable to get the gamepad to work properly with this rom.
Here are the different techniques I’ve tried:
First try: What this “should” do (according to what my mind is telling me) is make both players run off of index 0.. right? Or am I wrong?
input_player1_joypad_index = "0" input_player1_b_btn = "1" input_player1_y_btn = "3" input_player1_select_btn = "6" input_player1_start_btn = "7" input_player1_up_axis = "-1" input_player1_down_axis = "+1" input_player1_left_axis = "-0" input_player1_right_axis = "+0" input_player1_a_btn = "0" input_player1_x_btn = "2" input_player1_l_btn = "4" input_player1_r_btn = "5" input_player2_joypad_index = "0" input_player2_b_btn = "nul" input_player2_y_btn = "nul" input_player2_select_btn = "nul" input_player2_start_btn = "nul" input_player2_up_axis = "nul" input_player2_down_axis = "nul" input_player2_left_axis = "nul" input_player2_right_axis = "nul" input_player2_a_btn = "nul" input_player2_x_btn = "nul" input_player2_l_btn = "nul" input_player2_r_btn = "nul" input_enable_hotkey_btn = "nul" input_exit_emulator_btn = "nul" input_player1_a = "nul" input_player1_b = "nul" input_player1_y = "nul" input_player1_x = "nul" input_player1_start = "nul" input_player1_select = "nul" input_player1_l = "nul" input_player1_r = "nul" input_player1_left = "nul" input_player1_right = "nul" input_player1_up = "nul" input_player1_down = "nul" input_exit_emulator = "nul" input_player2_a = "nul" input_player2_b = "nul" input_player2_y = "nul" input_player2_x = "nul" input_player2_start = "nul" input_player2_select = "nul" input_player2_l = "nul" input_player2_r = "nul" input_player2_left = "nul" input_player2_right = "nul" input_player2_up = "nul" input_player2_down = "nul" input_exit_emulator = "nul" input_enable_hotkey_btn = "8" input_exit_emulator_btn = "9" input_save_state_btn = "5" input_load_state_btn = "4"
Second try: (credit to KitchUK for this one)
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_up_axis = "-1" input_player1_down_axis = "+1" input_player1_left_axis = "-0" input_player1_right_axis = "+0" 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_exit_emulator_btn = "9" input_player2_joypad_index = "nul" input_player2_b_btn = "nul" input_player2_y_btn = "nul" input_player2_select_btn = "nul" input_player2_start_btn = "nul" input_player2_up_axis = "nul" input_player2_down_axis = "nul" input_player2_left_axis = "nul" input_player2_right_axis = "nul" input_player2_a_btn = "nul" input_player2_x_btn = "nul" input_player2_l_btn = "nul" input_player2_r_btn = "nul" input_enable_hotkey_btn = "nul" input_exit_emulator_btn = "nul" input_player1_a = "nul" input_player1_b = "nul" input_player1_y = "nul" input_player1_x = "nul" input_player1_start = "nul" input_player1_select = "nul" input_player1_l = "nul" input_player1_r = "nul" input_player1_left = "nul" input_player1_right = "nul" input_player1_up = "nul" input_player1_down = "nul" input_exit_emulator = "nul" input_player2_a = "nul" input_player2_b = "nul" input_player2_y = "nul" input_player2_x = "nul" input_player2_start = "nul" input_player2_select = "nul" input_player2_l = "nul" input_player2_r = "nul" input_player2_left = "nul" input_player2_right = "nul" input_player2_up = "nul" input_player2_down = "nul" input_exit_emulator = "nul"
Neither of these worked.. Looking at them it looks like they should work.. I’m having trouble figuring out why it is still switching over to second player, when second player either doesn’t exist or is the same index as player 1.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Hello,
I have Save and Load states working BUT only if I have a hotkey set…
I don’t want to use a hotkey….
I just want them to work without the hotkey!I’ve tried setting input_enable_hotkey = “nul”
But that won’t let me save, load, exit or anything!I’ve tried putting multiple values for it in for the hot key like
input_enable_hotkey = n
input_enable_hotkey = m
input_enable_hotkey = escape(and have save state set for n , load state set for m , exit set for escape) But that will just use whichever line of code is on top in the cfg file as the hotkey
A strange issue seems to be happening aswell… I’ve set my screenshot key to ‘e’
When I press the hotkey + e it does screenshot but also puts the emulation into Slow Motion. I’ve tried commenting out the Slow Motion part of the config file AND removing the lines all together but it still works….Is there something I’m missing here?
Would really appreciate it if someone could give me a hand.
Thanks
Currently all of the emulators underneath RetroPie are deferring to the default retroarch.cfg. I can see that each emulator has its own config file in the appropriate folders, but I’m at a loss as to what the actual names for the button bindings are.
I’d like to be able to rebind the Game Boy (and variants), NES, TG16 and possibly Genesis to “friendlier” layouts – specifically I’d like to remap the Game Boy and NES button bindings to a more “Super Game Boy” styled layout. (top/left = “B” and bottom/left =”A”)
Currently these are my button bindings. So for instance, the RetroArch.cfg file just has “input_player1_a_btn” as its “A” button binding for the first gamepad. But what would be the name of the binding on the NES or Game Boy? The TG16 has “1” and “2” buttons. What name am I binding buttons to for that?
Here’s my current RetroArch setup, if it helps:
#GamePad 1 Settings input_player1_joypad_index = "0" input_player1_a_btn = "1" input_player1_b_btn = "0" input_player1_x_btn = "3" input_player1_y_btn = "2" input_player1_select_btn = "6" input_player1_start_btn = "7" input_player1_up_btn = "h0up" input_player1_down_btn = "h0down" input_player1_left_btn = "h0left" input_player1_right_btn = "h0right" input_player1_l_btn = "4" input_player1_r_btn = "5" input_player1_l3_btn = "11" input_player1_l_x_plus_axis = "+0" input_player1_l_x_minus_axis = "-0" input_player1_l_y_plus_axis = "+1" input_player1_l_y_minus_axis = "-1" input_player1_r_x_plus_axis = "+2" input_player1_r_x_minus_axis = "-2" input_player1_r_y_plus_axis = "+3" input_player1_r_y_minus_axis = "-3" # input_enable_hotkey_btn = 7 input_exit_emulator_btn = 6 # #GamePad 2 Settings input_player2_joypad_index = "1" input_player2_a_btn = "1" input_player2_b_btn = "0" input_player2_x_btn = "3" input_player2_y_btn = "2" input_player2_select_btn = "6" input_player2_start_btn = "7" input_player2_up_btn = "h0up" input_player2_down_btn = "h0down" input_player2_left_btn = "h0left" input_player2_right_btn = "h0right" input_player2_l_btn = "4" input_player2_r_btn = "5" input_player2_l3_btn = "11" input_player2_l_x_plus_axis = "+0" input_player2_l_x_minus_axis = "-0" input_player2_l_y_plus_axis = "+1" input_player2_l_y_minus_axis = "-1" input_player2_r_x_plus_axis = "+2" input_player2_r_x_minus_axis = "-2" input_player2_r_y_plus_axis = "+3" input_player2_r_y_minus_axis = "-3" # input_enable_hotkey_btn = 7 input_exit_emulator_btn = 6
Topic: Reset Rom
I was able to setup a way to exit out of an emulator with my controller by configuring a hotkey and an exit button. However, a lot of times I simply want to reset the ROM because I picked 1 player instead of 2 for example. Exiting and re-selecting the ROM does take a little while. A simple ROM reset wold be much quicker and I know it’s possible to do with most emulators I’ve ever used in Windows or Linux. Is there a function I can map to the controller with the hotkey where I could just reset the ROM? I’ve googled everywhere and I can’t find anything.
Thanks
I know how this is done for USB gamepad but I cannot get it to work using a keyboard. I have a teensy 2.0 set up as a USB keyboard that is set up like a SNES controller so there is not a dedicated escape button.
Right now I have
# input_enable_hotkey_btn = enter
# input_exit_emulator = tabThis is not working any suggestions?
Hi Folks!
I just recently installed RetroPie to my RaspberryPi and I am really happy with it.
The only thing that bugs me is, that the “input_enable_hotkey_btn” is simply ignored!For example, simply pressing “input_exit_emulator_btn” is enough to exit the emulator, without any need of pressing the hotkey_btn.
I tried different controllers and put the two lines nearly everywhere in my config files:
input_enable_hotkey_btn = "8" input_exit_emulator_btn = "11"
(btn 8 is select on my controller and btn 11 is L3 on my controller)
I tried the controller-specific files retroarch creates in /opt/retropie/emulators/RetroArch/configs
as well as /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg
I even created /home/pi/RetroPie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg (whicht didn’t exist!) and put the lines there to no avail.Is there any specific setting to enable the use of a hotkey_btn in RetroArch? Did I miss something?
For clarification: should all the buttons I define after the line input_enable_hotkey_btn only be active while holding down the hotkey? Or how does RetroArch decide which btn to use in combination with the hotkey_btn?
thanks,
best regards,

When i config my wired xbox 360 controller using the ‘register retroarch controller’ in the ‘retropie setup’ , it all works find and i get the message that the file MircosoftX-Box360pad.cfg is made.
But OFCOURSE i want too exit my games using the xbox controller.. my guess is that i need find that MircosoftX-Box360pad.cfg and edit the input_enable_hotkey_btn = 10
input_exit_emulator_btn = 9.But I can´t find the config file. Can u help me?
