    Hey….. I too have a THT controller and so far have it set up for Mame, RetroArch (SNES, NES, SEGA etc)
    Having some issues with PiFBA.. But thick I’ll have a solution soon.

    Hang Tight… And I’ll post my setting / procedure when I get home from work.

    In the mean time…
    Perform a Jtest..

    Go to terminal and type-

    sudo apt-get install joystick

    Then

    jstest /dev/input/js0

    Click your buttons… And write down the “btn” and “Axes” values.

    You should draw out your CP and write the values over the layout. (Makes it easier to tweak)

    You should also hunt around the forums.. / floob have a number of tutorials on YouTube that should point you in the right direction..

    Hope that helps in the mean time.

    Thanks….
    Here in oz… They have flat pack kits… But it gets pricey… I.e $200AU for MDF laser cut kit vs $30AU raw materials.

    It doesn’t work…..

    I am going to have to switch my wires… To fix the inverted joystick…

    The other issue I am having is getting 2 players to work in PiFBA.
    The THT usb encoder is mapped to js0 for both controllers…
    The joysticks are “0”,”1″ + “2”,”3″ both use + & – 32767 respectively.
    Buttons are from 0 to 17…..

    Ran a jtest and all are responsive.(other emu work)
    But PiFBA does not recognise the second player.

    See cfg file.

    Any help would be good?.

    ALSO…….

    I’ve READ that you can edit the /rpi/fba_player.cpp as setout on

    https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Troubles-with-the-Xin-Mo-Controller

    apparently the XinMo + THT are similar.

    I’m not sure where to find the cpp file… is it already on retropie image?? or do I need to compile it?? if so…. how do you compile it??

    System is nearly setup… see attached image of my first Cab build….
    Big shoutout to floob and others on the forum.

    I’m having the same issue.

    Joystick is inverted……
    I’m using a THT sub encoder 2 player.

    Did you ever resolve this??
