MiSTer FPGA Forum

For my specific controller, it was the SNES-style SN30 with the grey brick retro adapter. Both bought separately.

Regarding X-Input, I've never set that, or even looked into it, for my MiSTer. I have no idea how my SN30 is connecting.

Do you guys think I should start using X-Input, or is the fact that it looks like I solved my arcade core problems mean that I shouldn't rock the boat?

Well, I hope this thread can be useful to other people in the future then. This brand is pretty popular with retro gamers, so I don't think I'll be the only one that has this weird problem that required what looks like a couple of things to ultimately fix.

Did you update the firmware for your 8bitdo adapter yet? Did you update the firmware for the controllers? Are you making sure to use the controllers in xinput mode only? Ah! I think that did it! Just downloaded the 8Bitdo Firmware Updater. My SN30pro controller seemed to already be on V1.38, which is the most up to date version the software has. I...

I can confirm that the config folder is being made on the root of my SD card, and that input and nvram folders were made automatically during normal MiSTer use. https://imgur.com/a/2myhMp7 I can also confirm that it looks like files are in "inputs" https://imgur.com/a/LE5orud I downloaded the linux folder you mentioned, overwrote all the ...

Thank you. Any idea why I need to replug the 8bitdo adapter back in every time I load a core?

Did you run the controller setup in the MiSTer main menu (not within the core)? I did, but I found out that it had not saved. The ini file was apparently not there. I had to recreate it by hand, remap the 8bitdo controller to it so it's seen outside of the arcade cores, and I think I'm good to go. I'm curious why the controller was recognizable in...

Hi, I have the same problem, I´m using an xarcade dual stick (and a wireless mini keyboard), I read this post but didn´t try it, maybe it help. https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?t=894 Interesting. Have you gotten any types of controllers to work for the arcade cores that are nonresponsive for you? I've tried a wireless keyboard and a BT 8bitdo ...

I thought I had messed up my install, so I did an absolute complete wipe. I did a new Mr. Fusion install, ran the update_all script, and ran the wifi script. Beyond this, the only thing i've done is ensured that my jtbeta.zip file was in my MAME folder (and yes, it's still zipped). The games load fine. I hear sound. I see no graphical issues - but ...
