On July 30, 2025, the U.S. Executive Order “Suspending Duty-Free De Minimis Treatment For All Countries” came into effect. This removes the previous duty exemption for low-value packages and introduces new procedural requirements that are still being defined by U.S. Customs and the United States Postal Service. In response, DHL has announced a temporary halt to standard postal parcel shipments into the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Dismiss

Hi, ran into a weird problem after upgrading from 2.6 to the latest version of 3.0. I am using a wireless Xbox 360 controller, and everything works fine with it in all of the emulators other than advmame and pifba. In 2.6, both my joysticks and dpad worked great in both of those emus. Now after upgrading, my dpad works fine in other emulators, but does not map at all in advmame, just the joysticks, and in pifba the joysticks again work fine but still no dpad support. I even copied my cfg for pifba from 2.6 over to 3.0 and still no dice. Also my hotkey and exit button no longer work for pifba, and I have to use the start + select buttons to exit the emu. Any help would be fantastic, because I have tried everything and don’t have a clue where to go next with this. Here is a copy of my fba2x.cfg.
