Hello,
I hope you can help me here. I’m looking for quite some time now and can’t find an answer:
I’m using RetroPie 3.6 on the Raspberry 2 and I have an USB Keyboard and an IPAC2 connected.
The IPAC2 has an arcade joystick and -buttons, behaves like a keyboard and generates key-events. I have the IPAC configured to output the following keys: cursor (left/right/up/down), v,c,x,y,num1,num5,p,enter.
When I’m on the console on the RetroPie, both keyboard and IPAC output the pressed keys to the console. When I’m in Emulationsstation, both keyboard and IPAC can be used for navigation. (I configured it accordingly) When I’m in MAME, both keyboard and IPAC can be used to play games. (I configured it accordingly) But when I’m using a RetroArch emulator (like the NES emulator), only the keyboard can be used. When using the IPAC, no key-input seems to be recognized.
What do I have to do to get the keyboard-keys generated by the IPAC interface through to RetroArch? What am I doing wrong? I tried different settings/manual mappings (like in \configs\all\retroarch.cfg or \configs\all\retroarch-joypads\Ultimarc IPAC 2 Ultimarc IPAC 2.cfg) but I can’t get it to work.
I hope you can help me - I’m out of ideas what to try. Thanks!
