This system makes 0 sense to me. You are telling me that in order to be able to make a simple “I need help with X”, a problem I am actively having I need to jump through this many hoops just to enter the discussion and ask for help!? …Okay I’m a little beyond frustrated about this so can someone do me a solid and make a post for me with these parameters: “Help using multiple controllers in port one or easy switching” I’ve looked at about 12 different guides for this but every implementation has come up either irrelevant or non-functional. Ugh all I wanna do is use my ps4 controller, my Nintendo zapper, and my snes controller all in port 1 without jumping though hoops and reconfiguring things every time I switch games…
It keeps the spam down, and yes, I think it’s reasonable to have people jump through a few hoops if they’re going to expect someone to go out of their way to provide answers to their questions.
For yours, if you go to settings > input > port 1 controls, you can change the device index to the one you want to use right then. They can’t all occupy the same port at the same time.
However, in quick menu > controls, there is a “mapped port” setting, where you may be able to make them overlap on a core-by-core basis.

I don’t understand how it would keep spam down if you have full access to post in replies without going through said hoops as I’m doing now. A verified email + captcha is what most forums use and spam doesn’t seem to be a problem, plus that way it doesn’t alienate new visitors. As to that fix, switching the device index would require a full re-map of the controller each time. That’s the issue I’m trying to cut around, and the mapped port setting appears to be something that you need to map for each individual game which becomes very tedious quickly. Neither of these fixes tackle the root cause I asked about.
I assure you: forum spam is an immense problem. We used verified email + captcha in the past and had literally thousands of spambot accounts register per day.
We don’t have any mechanism for gamepad-specific remaps, and it doesn’t sound like we have a good solution for your issue, assuming it is: wanting to have multiple controllers accessible all the time with different, non-default core mappings applying to each one.
I’ve been looking for help for ages!tried to join your discord and I got banned I was trying to add someone in their because it wouldn’t let me post in the discord chat… so I’ll post it here
Was just wondering, is it possible to send roms to retroarch on my Xbox series S using a FTP server on android? I have managed to connect to my xbox through FTP on my android. I just can’t find the file directory I’m supposed to place the ROMS in. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
lol you picked a bad time send an unsolicited friend request. That is, right in the middle of a spambot raid. Sorry about that. I’ll try to unban you real quick.
Do you need my discord and ID to unban me?
It wouldn’t let me message in the chat either, said something about Admins not sharing a server I’m so confused, ty for the quick response though
Dude can you unban me on discord?? I honestly really need help with this I’ve been stuck for days…
yeah, i’m having trouble doing that. Discord’s moderation tools are trash. Can you PM me your discord info?
EDIT: nvm, found another way to do it. you should be unbanned now.
I made a new Discord and when I try join the invite link it sends me over to discord but then nothing happens haha life is never simple thankyou though bro
Nvm bro its let me join, so how can I message the help group without being banned this time because it said last time I need to be friends with someone who shares the server with me or something like that
don’t try to PM anyone. just use the general #help channel
you nearly lost me also. i can only hope i can the help i need now i know it’s just a silly waiting game… i wait. i only found this post by searching “help @discobot”
i am surprised i can even make this reply now after reading this.
