Controller Setup
  • spacecowboyspacecowboy
    I am running the very most recent beta release of piplay. I have jumped through all the hoops, but now my controller configuration doesn't save. As far as I can tell it never even registers that I changed the controls. Is it because the controller setup lacks an "okay" option? All I see aside from "ALL" and "cancel" is the emulators list that also happens to be missing gba. The idea of this OS working properly is an incredibly sexy concept but I just cannot seem to get it working as you have created it to. Again, I am trying to save my controller changes I make when you press TAB, controller changes that never register. Any assistance would be appreciated, I cannot find a solution on the forums.

    @spacecowboy. There is no 'OK' option. It just runs through the controls and then saves them. Which emulator(s) are you trying to configure?

    If it's Final Burn Alpha, it uses the Arcade control setup. I made the mistake earlier thinking it would use the Neo Geo controller

    I have tried nes gb ngpc gba and sega master system. I am using a usb super nintendo controller, fully functional and recognized by the pi. I used the main menu (tab) to pick the emu from the list and change buttons. I select cancel as that is the only way it lets me out of the list menu. I go to play and nothing is properly set as I had made it. Multiple attempts on multiple installs.

    @spacecowboy - have you taken a look at any of config files to see if they have actually changed? The ngpc and sega master system should both be located in '/home/pi/.mednafen/' and labeled as sms.cfg and ngpc.cfg

    I haven't, but I will now. I am having great difficulties finding documentation for the beta, so I am left to inquire here. Prior to this I used ChameleonPi, but thanks to a lack of recent dev (and little to no support for the b+) I am forced to try new things. I appreciate your help and responses and I will keep you posted.

    yeah, right now we have been making so many changes, that we haven't bothered to keep up on documentation. The forums are the best way to get help.
