    I got one of those, it works perfectly.

    Hi all,

    I’ve installed retropie and my ROMs with amazing ease for linux related stuff so great news on that front. The installation is perfect but now I want to connect my original SNES controllers to use instead of the keyboard.

    I’m wondering if I could use this:

    Am I thinking far too simplistically or will this likely work?

    Thankyou for any help.

    well that was the issue. I’ve got a dualshock working but I’m still having a few issue.

    #1 can’t get the controller to work to select emulators.

    #2 Every time I reboot I hand to redo modprobe

    any suggestions?

    Has anyone else had issues with running the Master System emulator Osmose? I have tried running from both Emulation Station as well as from the command line and the result in both is that the screen goes black (not even the usual white dot) and then I get no response at all and have to reset the device.

    The command line syntax I am attempting from the Osmose directory is:
    ./osmose /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mastersystem/A.sms -fs -tv

    Setup: HDMI monitor w/ XArcade dual joystick and attached PS2 keyboard

    cool, I guess I’ll pick up a dual shock and see if it works. I appreciate the quick response.

    I did a clone for a friend of mine. He had the original Playstation controllers and I was not able to get them to work. Plugged in my DualShock controllers and it worked immediately. DualShock and DualShock 2 work, but the original controllers don’t seem to. Not sure why and since I don’t have any I haven’t investigated it.

    Please Help!!!
    I am trying to do a similar thing but i’m having issues getting a psx (original, no analog sticks or dual shock) controller to work. I have the psx controller connected to my 512mb rpi as follows:
    PSX RPI GPIO
    Pin 1 > Pin 3
    Pin 2 > Pin 8
    Pin 4 > Pin 6
    Pin 5 > Pin 1
    Pin 6 > Pin 10
    Pin 7 > Pin 12

    I have installed the RetroPie SD image ver. 1.5. Expanded filesystem using raspi-config and ran the following commands:

    sudo su
    apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
    sudo apt-get install -y git dialog
    cd
    git clone git://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup.git
    cd RetroPie-Setup
    chmod +x retropie_setup.sh
    ./retropie_setup.sh

    From the RetroPie setup I did:
    #3 Setup
    #9 Install/update multi-console gamepad drivers for GPIO

    Then from another terminal using SSH:
    zless /usr/share/doc/gamecon_gpio_rpi/README.gz (instructions)
    modprobe gamecon_gpio_rpi map=0,0,0,0,7,0
    tail /var/log/kern.log (screenshot “psx verify.png”)
    apt-get install joystick
    jstest /dev/input/js0 (screenshot “jstest js0.png”)

    After a reboot, RetroPie starts with the splash saying no “Press a button on the device for player 1, No joysticks detected, press f4 to quit” and pressing a button does nothing. I have take a multimeter to pins 4 & 5 on the psx and am getting 3.3v so i know the voltage is ok. Is there a step I’m missing? I found my sources on a few different sites considering I was unable to find a good tutorial that gave all the steps needed.

    Any help would be appreciated!!!!

    Hi Guys,

    Wonder is someone can help me…

    I have just installed RetroPie, using the SD-Card image from this website, and all is working in that end, I have installed xboxdrv and set that up, and that is working for controlling the EmulationStation GUI, but when I open an emulator, none of the face buttons are working/configured, the Up,Down,Left,Right work fine, but none of the other buttons..

    Can someone give me some pointers on if this is an issue, or if i need to indivudually configure each emulator one-by-one and if I do, how I go about doing it?

    Thanks for any help, and keep up the good work.

    Hey all, my current setup is an XArcade dual joystick paired with a USB keyboard.  I’ve finally gotten the XArcade to work with EmulationStation, but am having trouble configuring it with RetroArch.  I believe this has to do with the fact that I have two USB input devices (The XArcade and Keyboard) plugged into the Pi.  This is being interpreted as two USB keyboards.  Is there a way to, in the .cfg file, setup a second keyboard?  If so, what is the syntax?

    Thanks

    [quote=1406]No luck. Does everyone who wants to control their emulations ration menu with their player 1 controller have to go through these steps? I assume I am missing something obvious here. Should I just start from scratch with the latest image? [/quote]

    I am afraid that using the latest image won’t help here.

    • You have to configure Emulation Station for your joystick: Therefore, a screen in Emulation Station will pop-up at start after a gamepad has been recognized for the first time. The settings for Emulation Station are then saved in the file /home/pi/.emulationstation/es_input.cfg.
    • You have to configure RetroArch for your joystick. Please refer to https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki for questions about specific controllers.
    • If you are using SNESDev, make sure that you are using exactly the pins as described at https://www.petrockblock.com/2012/10/21/the-retropie-gpio-adapter/!
    • If your controllers for player 1 and 2 are swapped, another option (compared to the ones stated above) would be to change the settings in /home/pi/RetroPie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

    Unfortunately, setting up the controllers for your RetroPie system heavily depends on the very specific hardware setup of the individual users.

    Never mind. i was able to find this

    http://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry_pi/comments/16w9qn/emulationstation_and_a_logitech_dual_action/c816dz

    i just needed to add a sleep command to the emulation station startup script so that the game pad drivers load first

    Thanks again

    i managed to for now whie i wait for answers on the raspberryPi forums about the 360 controller and xboxdrv, i got the PS3 (Sony) controller working using this: http://booting-rpi.blogspot.ro/2012/08/dualshock-3-and-raspberry-pi.html

    the numbers i got from mine are:

    O=13 X=14 SQ=15 Tri12

    rightD 5
    Left D=7
    Up D=4
    down D=6

    sel=0
    start3

    (sorry i didnt write down offhand what L1/2 R1/2 and L3/R3 were because recognition is… “Buggy” at best. would probbly be better if i had tghe pi on an  higher PSU (using an 1.2A atm as it seems like the power comming from my 2A PSU isnt clean (i was getting false mmc time out errors on my SD Card and went away after changing PSU’s)

    [quote=1270]Hello!

    This is my first post, so first thank you for your great project!

    But i have some problems:

    Me only nes, snes and psx works.

    I would like to get the mame or neogeo (for cadilacs and dinosaurs) and scummvm (for monkey island) to work.

    Whats the difference between mame and neogeo?

    I emulatorstation only read exe for scummvm but the only monkey island versions i found are zip file that contains no exe.

    I hope someone can help me, and sorry for my bad english.

    Currently, ScummVM does not directly start a game, but only the ScummVM Launcher. I just tested it: You can add a file “Start.exe” with the command

    touch ~/RetroPie/roms/scummvm/Start.exe

    and (re-)start Emulation Station. Now, the ScummVM Launcher appears in Emulation Station and can be started. You add each game for ScummVM directly from the ScummVM Launcher. To make sure you have all files needed for a game, you can check the site at http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Datafiles.

    In order to play NeoGeo ROMs, you need to copy a BIOS file into

    ~/RetroPie/emulators/gngeo-0.7/neogeobios7

    Until now I got MetalSlug 1 and Metal Slug 3 to run, but I did not try out many games. There are different MAME emulators that can be installed with the RetroPie Script. Each MAME emulator is configured as an individual system: iMAME4All shows up as “Mame” in Emulation Station, GnGeo as “NeoGeo”, and Final Burn Alpha as “Final Burn Alpha”. They are all MAME emulators (if I am not mixing things up right now) and you have to try out which emulator does its jobs best for your ROMs.

    I hope that help!?
