X-Box Controller
  • ChrisW
    Perhaps this has been discussed in the past but I can't find any quick answers. I am setting up my old pi for a friend of mine and he wants to use his USB X-Box controller, I have never tried this setup before. I can set up NES using the X and Y buttons as the A button on the controller seems to act as pressing both A&B even after configuring it. After configuring SNES and trying to play a game, it seems the A button on the controller escapes from the game. In both cases the X-box A button seems to be the issue. Has anyone else run into this or have a possible solution? Most games will be pretty unplayable with this problem.

    Thanks @mholgatem however the issue persists. I copied your map exactly but have the same issue. The A button on the xbox controller exits from the SNES emulator whenever it is pressed regardless of what it is assigned to in the controller setup. In the NES emulator it acts as hitting the A+B buttons. I have no Idea what the issue is. I tried a new cordless Logitech pad with the exact same problem. If you have any clue how to fix this that would be of great help.

    Thanks again @mholgatem, I will try that when I get home from work. On a similar subject, is there anything special I need to do to get 2 Xbox controllers working? I'm just hoping for some early advice before I run into possible problems.

    @mholgatem the snes update helped and the Xbox controller is working better. I still can't figure out the A+B Nintendo problem and can't get the two controllers working yet but I think I may have just screwed with too many settings. I'm flashing the SD from my last backup and I'll try again. You mentioned waiting for the next update. Can you give any hint as to when that may be and what we can expect (Atari back, N64, etc)?

    I actually have no idea when that next update will be out. Development has slowed in the last couple of months as we have been taking on several different projects. But I think that we are about ready to start it chugging along again.
