Reply To: FBA Retroarch core – coin controls

Ok, two things.

1) On the roms (i.e Lightning Fighter) that dont accept “Select” as the coin button, using the keyboard version of “Right Shift” works fine for coin, the joypad then functions correctly.

OR

2) By swapping the hotkey enable button to anything else (in my case left trigger) in /opt/retropie/configs/fba/retroarch.cfg (this way all other libretro emulation keeps using select as the hotkey) everything then works fine (as in, select then works as coin).
I simply added this line to that file
input_enable_hotkey_btn = "4"

either of these solve the problem.

Can anyone who knows how fba-libretro handles inputs, see what the cause may be based on the resolutions above working?

Either way, I’m happy it works now :)
