Reply To: XArcade + USB keyboard

[Idris_Arslanian]

Well, I snagged a PS2 keyboard so I could hook up the XArcade and keyboard jointly so the Pi would recognize them both as the same keyboard input. However, I am having trouble remapping the buttons in the RetroPie.cfg. I have the following in the file, but it is not recognizing the reconfigured buttons. I have no .cfg files in any of the emulator specific configuration folders:

home/pi/RetroPie/configs/all/RetroPie.cfg

# Keyboard input. Will recognize normal keypresses and special keys like “left”, “right”, and so on.
# Keyboard input, Joypad and Joyaxis will all obey the “nul” bind, which disables the bind completely,
# rather than relying on a default.
input_player1_a = “5”
input_player1_b = “c”
input_player1_y = “lshift”
input_player1_x = “z”
input_player1_start = “1”
input_player1_select = “3”
input_player1_l = “lctrl”
input_player1_r = “lalt”
input_player1_left = “4”
input_player1_right = “6”
input_player1_up = “8”
input_player1_down = “2”

input_player2_a = “e”
input_player2_b = “w”
input_player2_y = “]”
input_player2_x = “6”
input_player2_start = “2”
input_player2_select = “4”
input_player2_l = “a”
input_player2_r = “s”
input_player2_left = “d”
input_player2_right = “g”
input_player2_up = “r”
input_player2_down = “f”
