    The usb stick is most likely formatted as the wrong type. vfat, fat and ntfs work in both Linux and Windows. By those instructions, it looks like it’s formatted as ext4, which windows doesn’t recognize.

    Hello, I am trying to store ROMs on a 128gb Sandisk Cruzer Blade, but I am having difficulty just getting the Pi to recognize it, so I can’t even get to the step of changing paths.

    As a test, I also tried an old 2gb drive and it was immediately recognized as USB0, Retropie populated it with the ROMs directory, and I was able to modify paths to point to the folder on USB0 and run ROMs from it.

    I did everything on the 128gb that I did on the 2gb drive, but it did not work. Is there something I might have missed? Thanks.

    Just a follow up to my own post. I came across this reply by milo: http://bit.ly/1QHcpSI

    Followed those instructions by doing the following:

    – Made a local backup of all config files located at /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs
    – Deleted all config files in /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs
    – Rebooted Pi device, and then went through the “Configure Retroarch Keyboard/Joystick” setup
    – New USBGamepad.cfg file was created upon completion
    – Rebooted Pi device again, and now sure enough I seem to have use of other buttons within the SNES titles.

    So this seemed to have done the trick.

    **Posted this on the RetroPie subreddit as well

    Hello all,

    Brand new to RetroPie, and to Raspberry Pi in general. I just picked up a Pi2 specifically to use as a dedicated Emulation device, and used the very straightforward LifeHacker article as my guide: http://bit.ly/1FYyDfZ

    My setup is as follows:
    – RetroPie v3.0 Beta2 installed from image
    – Raspberry Pi 2
    – Generic SNES USB controller (http://amzn.to/1E1hsnW)

    I’ve dropped a few roms over into appropriate directories, restarted the device and now those Emulators are in fact showing up in my main menu. Right now I have a few NES and SNES roms setup for testing.

    I’ve gone through BOTH control pad configs– the initial EmulationStation config for the controller, as well as Configuration for RetroPie use. Once again, restarted device for configs to go active.

    Now when I’m running emulated games — it seems that in any NES game like Super Mario Bros, I DO have use of both buttons that would correspond to the NES controller. However, it seems that in any SNES game, I ONLY seem to have use of the D-Pad and the B button — even though I’m quite certain the buttons are mapped correctly.

    I’ve gone through the RetroPie Keyboard/Joystick setup multiple times, as well as SSH’d into the device and manually viewed the saved config file (USBGamepad.cfg) — and all button choices do appear to be correct.

    I’ve verified In-Game on SNES games (using both Donkey Kong Country 1 & Donkey Kong Country 2 as my test titles) that only the B button and D-pad does seem to be active . I can jump using B, but can NOT hold down Y to run fast or to pick up barrels.

    Any possible suggestions?

    The emulators show up when there are ROMs in their respective ROM folders.

    You can either use a USB stick or transfer it over your local network if you have WiFi configured or Ethernet

    Topic: Both Joysticks Controlling Player 1 on Xin Mo

    in forum Controller Configuration in RetroPie
    kevinm
    Participant

    Hello, I’m using a 2-player USB Xin Mo controller on Retropie 3.0 Beta 2 on a Rasp Pi 2, and I have all the buttons working, but can not get the Player 2 joystick to work.

    Since both players are connected through a single USB, I have read that I should be setting player1 and player2 to the same joypad_index in opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg and I need to explicitly define the button mappings. I used the “Configure RetroArch Keyboard/Joystick” to get the mappings, and got all unique values for the buttons, but both joysticks register the same axes: +1/-1/+0/-0. See attached.

    Shouldn’t player2 show up as +3/-3/+2/-2, or something different from the other joystick? If I use the code below, which matches the values I got, then both sticks just control player 1.

    I did connect to a PC and used the Control Panel and an NES emulator to confirm the controller does work correctly for both player 1 and player. Therefore I am confident this is not a hardware issue.

    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_player1_up_axis = +1
input_player1_down_axis = -1
input_player1_left_axis = +0
input_player1_right_axis = -0

input_player2_joypad_index = 0
input_player2_b_btn = 12
input_player2_y_btn = 13
input_player2_select_btn = 19
input_player2_start_btn = 18
input_player2_a_btn = 11
input_player2_x_btn = 10
input_player2_l_btn = 14
input_player2_r_btn = 15
input_player2_up_axis = +1
input_player2_down_axis = -1

    Hi all, I plan on buying a Pi 2 this week and had a few questions before I make my purchase.

    From various tutorials and things I have read online while researching, I see that roms can be loaded from usb instead of the SD card. Should I spend less on the SD by getting a smaller card and spend more on a larger usb flash drive?

    I plan on emulating all the 8 and 16 bit consoles, MAME, Neo Geo, and TG16 CD and Mega CD and maybe a few PSX games.

    I plan on getting the Pi 2, case, micro sd and reader, hdmi cable, and a usb flash drive. I have a usb keyboard from an old desktop and a wired 360 pad. Anything else I would need or general advice?

    Thanks in advance.

    Fixed it! In /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs there was a file named tempconfig.cfg that had input_device = “SFC/USB Pad” which matches the yellow text. Updating that file made them start working.

    Topic: USB ROM Service on OSMC + Retropie Install

    in forum Everything else related to the RetroPie Project
    p-rock
    Participant

    Last night I installed retropie on a fresh install of OSMC using the script available here:

    https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/installing-retropie-alongside-osmc-rc-the-easy-way/1921

    So far, most everything appears to be working properly, but the USB ROM service isn’t. ROMS aren’t being automatically loaded into emulation station. When I create an empty retropie direct on my USB stick, retropie isn’t even populating the folder with empty ROM folders. When I was running just a plain Retropie install (no OSMC), the USB ROM service worked without issue. Here’s what I’ve tried to troubleshoot:

    1. Manually enabling the ROM service in the Retropie Setup Script.
    2. Rebooting the system several times.
    3. Changing the paths in the es_systems.cfg.

    None of these steps have resolved the issue. I think part of the problem may be that I’m not booting directly into retropie with this configuration (booting into Kodi instead), and the path to the ROMS is a little bit different than what it would be if I was running retropie only (it’s “/home/osmc/RetroPie/roms/” instead of “/home/RetroPie/roms/.” Is there a configuration file I need to change to get the service working properly again?

    Yes jstest shows select as 6 and 7 as start. When I start a game this is the text I see in yellow:

    Joypad port #0 (SFC/USB Pad) configured

    When I ran the joystick setup from the setup script it said it wrote USB_2-axis_8-button_gamepad.cfg, but I’ve also tried changing USB_Gamepad.cfg and it doesn’t seem to fix it either.

    Correcting the keys in /opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes/snes9x.cfg did fix that emulator so I’m assuming it’s a misconfig but I can’t tell what file it’s loading from the text it prints.

    Could it be a problem with auto-config? I can’t seem to find a similar config to snes9x.cfg for all the libretro ones.

    Sure here’s my /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg. And my /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs/USB_2-axis_8-button_gamepad.cfg.

    Yes when I start a game very briefly yellow text flashes at the bottom of the screen showing each controller.

    I was able to get hotkeys working in PISNES by changing the key bindings in /opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes/snes9x.cfg but they still don’t work in any of the other emulators. All the others I’m using are part of libretro.

    In the videos it doesn’t say to but am I supposed to change anything in /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/retroarch.cfg?

    So confused!

    Apart from trying to force the sound through hdmi, which worked on recalbox, retropie is having non of it at the moment, the icade is running, I ditched all the switches and used sanwa which are connected through a usb snes controller board. An extra smaller sanwa button was fitted at the front to allow easy exit of a game.

    I used the heated barrel of a soldering iron on all edges of the vynal which created a better finish. Just waiting on chrome trim, side stickers and figuring out how to make a more permanent marquee light control.

    the mid section now pulls apart separate, if this could be copied it would make a nice conversion kit to icade that wouldn’t require hacking to fit.

    I’ll post final photos and any detailed parts. In all minus the pi 2 you would be looking at around £100 for parts. That’s if you can find a cheap icade as a Base.

    Hi, I’m using original SNES + USB adapters on a Raspberry Pi Model B with version 3.0 of the RetroPie script. With the default install the resting position of the controller is off so I had to use the steps posted on here to recompile the kernel.

    The d-pad and all the buttons on both controllers work as expected in Emulationstation and in all the emulators I’ve installed but I cannot get the hotkeys to work. Holding select and pressing start or any of the other triggers doesn’t do anything.

    Here’s my controller config in /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs:

    input_device = "USB,2-axis 8-button gamepad  "
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"
input_shader_next_btn = "5"
input_shader_prev_btn = "4"
# Saves state.
input_save_state_btn = "3"
# Loads state.
input_load_state_btn = "1"
input_reset_btn = "2"

    In /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg I’ve tried these two settings for this line as noted in another thread;

    # input_enable_hotkey_btn =
input_enable_hotkey_btn = tab

    Hotkeys work from a keyboard but when I only have two SNES controllers plugged in they don’t work from controller 1.

    Any ideas what I’m doing wrong? Thanks!

    Hi.

    (I have the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, with retropie v3.0 beta2 on it and I have these controllers http://www.ebay.com/itm/291352700689 – though that shouldnt matter since they work until I start a game, and I’ve tried a ton)

    I have the same problem. My D-Pad doesn’t work “in-game” , but it works in the menu etc. I’ve tried what’s been written above, copy/pasted the files into my current files, but without any success.
    Though I have not changed (don’t know if it’s the correct one or even if I’m supposed to change that one) /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/retroarch.cfg it just says permission denied.

    On the other hand, I have changed the /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg with the text posted above. I have also changed the /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs/USB_Gamepad_.cfg with the text above.

    Nothing seem to be working, the D-Pad still doesn’t work.

    T

    To fix it though I deleted all the automatically created config files and let it create a new one. This time it worked perfectly with my SNES controllers working without the need to go near the retroarch.cfg file.

    Which files is that exactly? Because I have no idea about this stuff.

    If you are using Version 3 Beta 2 I am starting to think there might be a problem with the autoconfig files.

    My fix was as follows:
    1 – Backup all files under config
    2 – Delete them all
    3 – Reconfigure each joypad using RetroPie Setup script and Joystick setup

    EDIT: Just saw this one. I tried (Im accessing it through filezilla etc, hope thats the correct way to do this?) to delete the files, but I keep getting the ”Permission Denied” error…

    EDIT: Found it on the forum:

    for mame4all-pi, other emulator edits
    sudo chown -R pi:pi /opt/retropie/emulators/

    But still doesn’t work. Just reinstalled retropie and doing everything again to see if it helps.

    EDIT:

    Ok, so I reinstalled the whole thing. Then deleted all the config files /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs and rebooted – now nothing worked, even after input configure.

    Then put the config files back and edited USB_Gamepad_ in the config folder, and the retroarch.cfg file in /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch and in /opt/retropie/configs/all.

    Still… D-Pad doesn’t work.

    Hopefully you guys can help me out!

    Just waiting on replacement lcd cable and usb lamp to come. The lamp consists of 12 led that runs off a usb port. the tv board is quite detailed and provides additional sources of power. the speakers ran off a cheap usb amp which sounded awful so ditched that and used the tv boards built in amplifer. everything par the screen is running off a 12v adapter.

    A back cover hides the wires and the top lid provides access to the micro sd. so far so good, downside is marquee is far too wide, I couldn’t gain any more vertical room so most images unless altered look stretched.

    I ‘m a noob and need detailed instructions
    I have LogitechF310 usb controllers, they both work in Snes games. When I try to play Nes or Psx games then my controllers dont work at all and I have to use my keyboard which is no fun and super awkward. How do I get my controllers working for all systems?
    Also followed youtube guides on changing buttons functions and did the up down left right ….. thing when it asked and ctrl x , yes , enter to save, wrote …lines and the configuration never changed in actual game play so I’m stuck with default settings that are not like the snes controller should be.
    Thanks for any help

    Hello,

    I have my Pi2 configured for Mame, FBA, Megadrive, Snes. I am only using the keyboard and need to buy the joysticks and buttons and controller.

    What is best the ControlBlock or Ipac2 (usb)?

    After searching on the forum I see some people can get these working in mame but sometimes not fba.

    Hey guys, i was able to get my cheap-o usb gamepad working to control kodi. I wrote a short post on the info i found and my config file here. The key thing was that the xboxdrv can both emulate a 360 gamepad with a random input source AND emulate a keyboard using the emulated 360 gamepad at the same time.
