Topic: "Dial" in MAME with FC30 Pro
Hello everyone,
First, some info:
Pi Model: 3
RetroPie Version Used: 3.6
Built From: SD image
USB Devices connected: None
Controller used: 8bitdo FC30 Pro
Error messages received: NoneOK, I’ve been trying to play Midnight Resistance on MAME, and to do so it needs something configured as a dial controller. What I’d like to use, is one of my FC30 Pro’s sticks (ideally the right one!). Unfortunately, I can’t figure out how to do that.
I can set either of the sticks as digital directions, but that just causes my character to flail his gun around as I run left and right :)
Any ideas?

sorry, yeah, true, daft as it is
Yeah but that also means that the pi 2 doesn’t struggle for most emulators.
I only had a few emulators/games that where able to make the pi 2 use 100% of one core.
Here are some cases I checked:
lr-snes-9x with super FX games (but easily solved with lr-pocketsnes…)
mame4all with dodonpachi reached 100% but solved with lr-fba-next who never reaches more than 50% without fba overclocking setting* (around 95% with 200 for fba overclocking setting*)
lr-pcsx-reamred doesn’t move from 50% except with few games like some specific magic spells in FF9 or specific parts of Broken Sword 2(but it is emulation glitches IMHO)For those we are interested in (N64, DC and PPSSPP) I didn’t check actually… would be interesting to verify later today.
*It’s a setting that allows to emulate the original plateforme but overclocked (max 200 wich is 200%). It’s usefull to remove some slowdowns on games that where lagging on the original machine (like the metal slug serie on neogeo for exemple).
my findings were different – I do understand how top works I was just miss typing. I doubt any emus run at 25% cpu.
pcsx maxes the pi2 cpu at 2x resolution (it renders everything in software) and I’m sure it spikes to 100% at some games like tekken 3 that have brief hitches at regular resolution. I don’t use fba over mame for various reasons, so mame improvements are important to me.it also maxes with 32x games.
mileage may vary …

Indeed, it’s true that you can find games on lr-mame-2003 that are lagging on pi 2.
I remembered trying gunbird 2 on it and it was not good at all. I checked again on my Pi2 today and it was indeed struggling at 100% cpu load.
Still I solved the problem with lr-fba…but I guess you can find some other games that are not compatible with fba and struggle on Pi2…
Topic: WIIMOTE as lightgun RPi3
im going to make a standup arcade cab with 2 sticks and 16 buttons
is it worth me trying to get the wiimotes ir working as lightguns? if it is i will add the ir leds to the cab (AKA sensor bar).
im not fussed about the accelerometer axis or the d pad just the ir and buttons.my questions are
will retropie have the BT modules installed so the wiimote actually pairs with retropie and do we know if possible to get the IR working ?
only my boy loves house of dead :)
CheersI am slowly, but surely getting everything working in my RetroPie.
Right now, my current hurdle to get over is getting my master system up and running.
Genesis, SNES, NES, N64, and Atari all seem to be working using my PS3 Dual Shock Controller, over USB and also with bluetooth.
Even playing some SMS ROMS through the Megadrive Emulator seems to work fine.
I am running RetroPie 3.2.1 (fully updated, updated emulator binaries, setup script, etc.) on a RPi2.
Hopefully these snippets will help provide some insight as to what my issue is. i am sure it is something easy. Please help!

Topic: My Arcade Project
Hey all, thought I would share my first arcade build with you. This forum has been alot of help to me over the last 3 months, so really wanted to share the final result.
I have built a standing 2 player full size arcade that obviously runs on RetroPie using a Raspberry Pi 2. It uses an Xin-Mo 2 player control board and for anyone having issues getting RetroPie to recognise it as 2 separate joypads has to check out this thread:
It’s a life saver.
As for the build itself, it currently stands at just over 2 metres tall. I know that sounds huge, and its definitely bigger than most standing arcades, but like everything I build it comes out like me: freaking tall. It has been custom wrapped in vinyl images of my choosing. I guess you could say it’s Metal Gear themed, but I has alot of my interests on it too like it’s Dragons Crown control panel.
For video out, im using an old CRT tv I got for free. Since this is retro, I wanted to keep it as classic as I could. Old school games look better on a good CRT tv anyway.
As for features:
[list]
[li]2 player set up[/li]
[li]Additional 2 players using custom built arcade control board, and PS3 controller. Totaling 4 players.[/li]
[li]300GB hard drive with about 100,000 roms (unsorted atm, clones, double ups etc.)[/li]
[li]USB expansion dock, allowing for more players and wifi dongle setup[/li]
[li]Arcade trackball (still to get working properly)[/li]
[li]Hidden draw containing keyboard for easy RetroPie control[/li]
[li]PS1 setup with up to 4 players[/li]
[li]Light gun setup for PS1 with up to 2 players[/li]
[li]Arcade is custom built so control board can be accessed from below at any time to fix buttons etc, and also has a door on the back to replace the TV should it ever die[/li]
[/list]The project took me about 3.5 months in total as I could only really work on it during weekends. I estimate the time to build and complete it all up to this point was about 150-200 hours.
You can read about the full build in detail here on my forum:

Hi All,
I’m new to RetroPie and have just build & setup my system (retropie 3.0).
I’ve got a bunch of games working, but have hit a brick wall with trying to get hotkeys working so I can save my game state, and exit a game easily.
I’ve built an arcade cabinet, so am using sanwa joysticks and buttons via an ipac-2 (therefore using keyboard controls).
I’ve tried Floob’s suggestions and deleted all supplementary configs, but no luck. I’ve updated the Retroarch config file to what I think the hotkeys should be, but still no luck. (all the buttons/joysticks are working, but not the hotkeys).
I used to be able to exit a game easily by holding start1 (num1) and pressing start2 (num2) buttons, but after I tried changing the hotkey setup script to “2” it changed to ALT, and now I have no idea how to change it back.
Any help would be MOST appreciated~! Thanks in advance !

Other emulater-specific settings (such as shader-related configurations) were working, so I don’t think it was an emulation-station setup issue, or anything wrong with either my configs/all/retroarch.cfg or my emulator-specific retroarch.cfg (in this case, configs/atari2600/retroarch.cfg).
However, when I deleted all of the input configurations in configs/all/retroarch.cfg, and put them exclusively in the emulator-specific retroarch.cfg, it worked.
While this is great (and not too hard to replicate from emulator to emulator), I don’t believe this is consistent with either the Wiki or the intent. I believe emulator specific input controls are supposed to override those contained in configs/all/retroarch.cfg.
For those experiencing similar problems (and I’ve seen what could be similar issues in this and other forums), I offer this approach as a possible solution/work-around.
My configuration is for 2 wireless Xbox360 controllers.
Any and all suggested improvements are also welcome.

Hi people , I am a noob that just both a raspberry pie 2 and got started with this project. I currently installed Retro Pie 2.6 and put some gba game on it. My issue although I mapped my ps3 control keys the gba games are mapped differently. Can any run me to the process of setting them up. Any information would be helpfull

Took the Mushberry logo from here (courtesy of user ShrikeDaddy) for an idea I had. I couldn’t make up my mind on which color/text combo I liked the most, so there’s a bunch.
4 Background Color versions (Abstract/Purple, Burgundy, Forest, and Navy)
3 Text versions per Color (None, “RetroPie Emulation System”, and “RetroPie Gaming Console”).If you wanted to, you could use the Splashscreen Randomizer from here (courtesy of user sur0x) with all 12 versions.
I can’t attach all of the screens here, so here’s an imgur album with all of them: http://imgur.com/a/8C3qf
Since imgur compresses images uploaded to it, here’s some higher quality links without further compression…

Hey Guys,
Just bought a raspberry pi2 and installed retropie on it.
installed a few roms and it works perfectly.
then I bought two snes usb controllers and installed them via this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0FT4i2CQVIthe controllers work but whenever I press X on the controller
it will go left.
it just looks like my x button is mapped on to the left d-pad however I can’t find the problem in any of the config files. not the USBgamepad.cfg and not the retroarch.cfg in the /all folder.I have exactly the same controller as in the video so I thought I needed the same settings as expained. both controllers work and both register is player1 and player2.
Can somebody please help me?
EDIT: just noticed when pressing A on the controller it will respond like A+dpad down

New to Retropie here. I setup my first Retropie a weekend ago, and I got it to where everything worked fine and I had no issues with it. My problems came in when I decided to get a Bluetooth dongle and setup my PS3 sixaxis controller.
I originally was able to save all my games and load them with hotkeys by tweaking this into my retroarch.cfg file under the
/opt/retropie/configs/all/location:input_enable_hotkey_btn = "0" input_exit_emulator_btn = "3" input_save_state_btn = "16" input_load_state_btn = "5"I wanted a wireless controller since I hate sitting close to the TV. So I followed this guide to get my ps3 controller to work:
After my ps3 controller was recognized by retropie, I realized that my old configurations for my xbox360 usb controller were making it difficult to navigate around. So I ended up deleting the various “input_player” lines in the bottom of the retroarch.cfg file in WINSCP, alt F4ed, and then ran this, which ran me through the process of setting up my ps3 controller mappings:
sudo chown pi /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg cd /opt/retropie/emulators/RetroArch/installdir/bin sudo ./retroarch-joyconfig -j 0 >> /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfgThe controller works fines for games and in emulation station. I have no problems with it in terms of functioning as a controller and playing games. My only problem is saving and loading my saved games. When I save a game I seem to get the correct message of “Saved state to slot #0”. But, every time I try load a game I get this message on the bottom of the screen:
“Failed to load state from “/home/pi/RetroPie/(XYZgame/whatever game I’m playing here, and it cuts off screen so i’m not sure if there’s anything else after that)”
I also notice that if I attempt to load the game, then proceed to try to save again, the save slot # moves up.
Also, I don’t see any .srm files being created in my rom folder like I use to. I don’t know what’s going on there. I’m thinking maybe this issue has something to do with permissions but I’m not sure.
Here is my retroarch.cfg:

I cant make the second player work.
I’m using two 360 xbox controller both linked with the wireless reciever. When i’m playing a game just 1 controller works and this controller is controlling both players.
this is my retroarch.cfg
thanks in advance.
PS: Also, i cant exit a game or save states using only the controller…
