Sorry I’m having a very difficult time with the forums here. Not sure if this has been asked or where to post it.
I was creating a few mapping for system when I noticed the megadrive only has 3 buttons. Is this an emu core issue? Is there no way to use a 6 button game like SF2?
While running a game, go into the quick menu, then go to ‘controls’ and change Joypad Auto to MD Joypad 6-button.
Is there a way to do this in the retroarch.cfg for the megadrive system? I’m trying to automate this with out any GUI involvement.
Oh I think I dug it up
input_libretro_device_p1 = “513”
input_libretro_device_p2 = “513”
Edit: nope and neither did
picodrive_input1 = “6 button pad”
picodrive_input2 = “6 button pad”
ohhh, picodrive. I was using genplusgx. Lemme see what picodrive needs.
Well I don;t know pico from genplusgx. How do I know what I’m using (retropie) ?
That’s a question for the retropie forums.
ah ok, though this was all RA specific. I sort of need it to work for all builds of RA.
I see the above needs to go in
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg
I can try that.
Edit: That did it, so this is retropie specific?
It should work on non-retropie, as well, just that file lives in a different place.
Ok thx hunterk! After I did this my remap in system/retroarch.cfg failed
example.
input_player1_y_btn = 4
input_player1_b_btn = 2
input_player1_a_btn = 1
input_player1_left_btn = 7
input_player1_x_btn = 3
input_player1_right_btn = 8
Any idea why?
Never mind that, user error.
