Hi,
I’m trying to usb my DS4 controller wirelessly but I have some problems.
What I have done :
– PS3 drivers installation
– DS4 Controller connected with a USB cable
– A lsusb command shows my BT dongle and my DS4 Controller
– Test with a jstest command is OKBut when I execute sixpair the following message is displayed :
no controller found on usb bussesI don’t understand, my DS4 is connected with a USB cable and, a priori, recognized.
Why sixpair can’t see it ?
Hi everybody,
I’m running RetroPie 2.6.0 on a Raspberry Pi 2. No problems until I got me one of those retro SNES-style controllers. I’ve been using a Gravis Gamepad Pro up until then and it worked flawlessly, but I can’t seem to get that retro controller to work. It simply registers as USBGamepad, mapped the buttons for emulation station and that worked, I went on and registered it as a new RetroArch controller, which seemed to work, but when I run a game, the buttons are messed up, A for example resets the game etc. I tried editing the USBGamepad.cfg that seemed to be the root of the problem, since there the A button was also set for input_reset_btn, so I set the value of that to blank. Buuuuuut that didn’t do the trick.
Does anyone know which config I have to edit to get it to work again?
Help is greatly apprechiated.
Cheers.I am having a weird issue and I apologize in advance, I am VERY new to this. I just picked up a Raspberry Pi 2 as my daughter asked if we could build one out. I installed the RetroPie image and got it all up and running. I installed the PS3 Drivers using the retropie_setup.sh. I got the controller connected via USB and player 1 lights up on the Dual shock. When I take it off the USB and pair it with the Bluetooth the controller rumbles and connects and shows player 2 on the dual shock, the controller is then useless and doesn’t work. After a reboot I can not get it to connect consistently and when it does it is always player 2 when wireless. I have walked through every guide out there and I can not seem to fix it.
Anyone have any ideas?
Hi, I use a PS2 original joystick connect from USB.
I see that the file RetroArch/retroarch.cfg is only one, but I need to configure a different key mapping for each emultors ( FBA, Genesis, MAME, ecc..).
How can I do?Topic: SNES Roms not showing in ES
Hey all, I’m new to the Pi. So I have a RaspberryPi 2 with the latest version of RetroPie. I added 700 or so snes roms to the snes folder on my usb drive. ES only shows 118 of them and they are all unzipped and are .smc file extension. It just cuts off after the letter ‘C’. I have no clue what to do.
I have been setting up my Gamecube controller using a controller adapter (http://www.amazon.com/GC-Controller-Adapter-for-PC/dp/B0089NVTDM) which has been working perfectly fine for singleplayer use, but when I tried adding in my second controller and configuring it, nothing happens. I am assuming it is because it takes up only one USB port. But when I try to press any button on it in the config, nothing happens. Does anyone have any experience with any adapter using 2 players using one port and by Mayflash?
Topic: Change joystick center?
Hi I have USB -> NES and USB -> SNES adapters connected to original controllers and it seems the center is off. The controller thinks top left is the center so pushing directional buttons doesn’t work and I’m unable to get past the controller setup in emulationstation.
Is there a way to tell the joystick config to offset the initial resting position so I can get all the buttons to work?
I just recieved my Raspberry PI 2 and installed image 2.6.0 rpi2. When I boot to emulationstation with my PS3 controllers plugged in via USB my keyboard does not work. If I boot with only the keyboard I can press f4 and go to the command prompt, but as soon as I plug in a PS3 controller to pair it with sixpair, the keyboard no longer works. I installed image 2.6.0 rp1 on my raspberry PI 2 and did not have any issues. Any ideas on what might be causing the issue in 2.6.0 rpi2? Thanks for your help in advance
I have a raspberry pi b+ with image ver 2.6 for the pi 1. I just recieved my raspberry PI 2 and downloaded image 2.6.0 for the PI 2. If I boot up the PI with my PS3 controllers connected via USB, it makes the keyboard unresponsive once emulation station loads. If I boot without the PS3 controllers connected via USB, I’m able to press f4 once emulationstation loads and I go to the command prompt. I am able to type, but as soon as I plug in my controllers via USB to pair using sixpair for example I am no longer able to use the keyboard. I put image 2.6.0 for the PI 1 on the raspberry PI 2 and I don’t have the issue. Any ideas on how to fix this for image 2.6.0 for the PI 2? Thanks for your help in advance
Hey guys, I’ve been trying to figure this out for the last week and have still had no luck. I have a retrolink SNES usb gamepad and whenever I boot up a rom to play in retropie when I hit my A button it resets my whole game and X will bring me into this retroarch menu and whenever i hit a button it gives me yellow dialog at the bottom of the screen. I’ve tried configuring the controller in retropi and I’ve set it up in the setup menu as well and then went in and edited the config but nothing has changed. A resets the game and X will bring me into the retroarch menu. Am I missing something. I don’t know what else to try other then starting over from scratch and trying again.
Topic: Help with retropie.
I am a complete newbie to retropie in general, i need help with the following components and fixes to the following problems
Emulation Station gui off screen and background images of emulation station with logos are both gone, all is blank white screen on main menu.
Hot key for exiting emulators was set to l3 on xbox controller, but when “A” button is hit, exits automatically.
How to setup Internet through usb wifi adapter, when i go to “Interfaces.txt” t set wifi settings, it will not let me type double quotes, which is needed for ssid name and password.
I need help with these things, because i want to get this done so i can use it for what i intended it for, retro gaming. i have been going crazy for the last 3 months trying to get this working, if anything is needed, config.txt and config file for emulator, etc. let me know, i do not know much on how to use linux/debian so all replies in layman’s terms please. thank you in advance for any help you can provide me with.
Topic: Various Hotkey Malfunctions
I recently purchased a Raspberry Pi 2 and have been running the latest version of Retropie on it. The games and emulators all seem to be working fine except that I am having trouble with the hot key. First, I will describe what I am experiencing and then post the appropriate text from the retroarch.cfg file.
I believe I have set the hotkey button to the Select button on my SNES USB controller (brand is Tomee, if that matters). My wish is to be able to press select then start and get out of the emulator back to the menu. This does not happen. Moreover, for some reason that has completely flummoxed me, my X button on the controller will automatically take me back to the menu.
Below is from the retroarch.cfg file:
input_enable_hotkey = alt
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_player2_joypad_index = “1”
input_player2_b_btn = “2”
input_player2_y_btn = “3”
input_player2_select_btn = “8”
input_player2_start_btn = “9”
input_player2_up_axis = “-1”
input_player2_down_axis = “+1”
input_player2_left_axis = “-0”
input_player2_right_axis = “+0”
input_player2_a_btn = “1”
input_player2_x_btn = “0”
input_player2_l_btn = “4”
input_player2_r_btn = “5”input_enable_hotkey_btn = “8”
input_exit_emulator_btn = “9”If it is appropriate to state it, I am using Mac OS X and using CyberDuck to make edits to this file.
I am a complete noob at this – I have next to no experience and have needed to rely on any extremely detailed instructions I have found online. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Topic: controllers in mupen64plus
Well so far so good.
I have one usb encoder and two ps3 controllers.
I have mame and psx setup and running. now I’m working on N64.I found that if you are using retroarch and don’t want the encoder to play a part as a controller you just set your ps3 controllers in the confings for retropie.
now how do I set mupen to only use the ps3 controllers. It auto detects all three joypads js0=encoder, js1=ps3, js2=ps3. I see in the config file all three are setup and ready for use. Is there a way to disallow the encoder?
Hey all,
I’m seeing a lot of posts around here with controller issues, and some which have great resolutions by helpful community members. I’m experiencing a rather odd issue, at the moment it seems limited to the Retroarch / Snes emulation.
I have tried the old plug and play and of course that didnt work, this is testing the snes emulation with several different roms from different sources. I have manually overwritten every retroarch.cfg and snes9x.cfg file I can find, and followed every youtube video and topic in this section of the forums on this. I’ve used the jstest and the gamepad is responsive, it registers just fine.
I have used the built in retroarch configuration tool for joysticks, I’ve changed permissions left right and centre, rebuilt the image a few time too from the distribution on this website and gone through steps over and over again.
After 4-5 hours of head and wall interaction I began to think it was the emulator so here is where I am. Unplugging and replugging the USB gamepad in and out registers in the emulator in yellow text at the right location (of course the gamepad works in the emulatorstation UI) – so I plugged in a keyboard and went ahead and used the F1 retroarch menu, after some digging in there I found the key binding wizard. I followed this and it seemed to be fine, i was even navigating the retroarch settings menu using the gamepad. However, the moment I went back to the game/rom in the Snes emulator it would hardly work if at all, as if the bindings were dropped or mixed up.
[EDIT: I’ve also updated the base system, all the retropie binaries and script, as well as the emulation station.]
I hope someone has come across the same issue as me and might have further steps I can try.
Alternatively if I find a solution before the community does I will be sure to share what I have.
Thanks for reading this wall of text and heres an obligatory TL;DR
TL;DR: USB Controller wont work in roms, works elsewhere, help :)
Topic: Joystick not work in NES
Hello,
last image (2.6) work well with all emulators,
but only in NES I can use only keyboard.. what I need to do to configure joysticks?
I’m using usb joypadthanks
GiorgioWhen i first set up my Bluetooth ps3 controller i could reboot the system and it would be able to connect with out a problem.
Now the only way it will recognize the controller is if its plugged in to the pi via usb then i setup controls, then unplug it, and then it will connect via Bluetooth. Is there a way to fix this?
I have 2 USB to SNES gamepad adapters, which were working well until a few days ago. Now the controllers are either not doing anything or will constantly scroll left on the EmulationStation menu. For some reason if I boot up the Pi without the USB wireless adapter plugged in, the controllers work fine. There have been no software changes recently, but just in case I restored the SD card from my last back up, which did not help. Has anyone else encountered something similar?
