Xbox One controller via Bluetooth. After much trial and error, I've finally been able to get my Xbox One controllers to pair and connect reliably to my RetroPie 4.1 install via Bluetooth on a RPi3 Model B. The trick for me was to first spin up a Windows 10 VM, update it to Win 10 Anniversary Edition (required), and then update my controllers' firmware via the Xbox Accessories app. Next, on the Pi I needed to run: echo 1 > /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm. Only then could I reliably go through the register and connect process via the Bluetooth menu. My only remaining problem is that when I am going through the Input Conifiguration in emulationstation, my button input for the Select button is not recognized. And if I try to press the standard Select button for that command, the rest of the input config goes into a downward spiral. If I skip that one config item, then I can go through the rest of the input config okay. I tried going through the config using the same controller via USB and then using the contents of that .cfg to overwrite my wireless cfg file (except for the Name line), but that did not work. Any ideas for me? I am literally down to one button mapping to having a working system. One other note on the firmware update above: in VMware Fusion, I also needed to change the USB compatibility mode to 2.0 for the controller to connect to the Windows VM. One other clue: if I press the problematic Select button as the initial button press to begin the input configuration, it identifies the device as "Keyboard" rather than "Xbox Wireless Controller". I would imagine this gets at the cause of the problem but RPi and RetroPie are new to me as of two days ago, so any any tips, pointers, or hunches are most welcome. Btw, I was not getting this far in the controller config when I had a USB keyboard and Mayflash USB adapter for my old Genesis controllers attached, but I have since unplugged those devices and am now instead using just my other Xbox controller wired to the RPi to navigate the menus while I try to get the first wireless config totally operational. And I also tried just mapping Select to a trigger or shoulder button, but this also doesn't register. The trick for me was to first spin up a Windows 10 VM, update it to Win 10 Anniversary Edition (required), and then update my controllers' firmware via the Xbox Accessories app. I had to do that with my before it would work wirelessly with my PC. So weird that it only works with newest version of Win10! Xbox One controller via Bluetooth. I didn't even realize the Xbox One controller was Bluetooth? I guess I assumed it used similar tech as the Xbox 360. I actually purchased a Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows ($25) which works great on my Desktop PC but its very awkward to plug into the RPi because of it's size and I don't think the RPi has enough juice to power it. It would never light up when holding down the make discoverable button. I might have to try this again as Bluetooth! What does it say for the Select button when you run: And I also tried just mapping Select to a trigger or shoulder button, but this also doesn't register. That is odd. That makes me think that the Select button on the controller isn't the problem. What driver are you using? Was there a walk-through that you followed? jstest says driver version is 2.1. Is that what you are looking for? If you are asking whether I am using xpad or xboxdrv, I am using xpad. Every single button responds in jstest, except for the Select button. I know the physical button is fine, because I swapped the controllers (one wired, one bluetooth) and the behavior follows whatever controller is wireless. It seems js0 following whatever controller is wired and js1 for wireless. I do see that the button mapping is different for the same controller wired vs. wireless. It does seem that the emulationstation Configure Input sensing the device as "Keyboard" if I press the Select button to start the config is key to this problem. Btw, it may be only Xbox One controllers that have come out since the release of the Xbox One S console are bluetooth. Their labelling of models are not explicit. It certainly is slick to be able to use on board bluetooth though.. if I can crack this Select key nut! It must have something to do with it thinking its a "Keyboard" and not a joystick. I wonder if there's a way to override it. I have the 2nd gen Xbox One controller with the 3.5 mm audio jack in the bottom. I couldn't get it to see it using Bluetooth so it must just be the S model that had Bluetooth. Any progress on this? It's frustrating to be so close. Any progress on this? It's frustrating to be so close. I had the idea of plugging in the Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows into a powered USB hub but I can't find my hub to test it. My theory is that the RPi doesn't have enough power to power the adapter but a powered USB hub would. If someone can test this, please let us know if this works. Just reporting that I've also managed to get my Xbox One S Gamepad connected through bluetooth to the Retropie box. Been playing it in a few games (Super Mario Bros in NES and Bano Kazooie on mupen64plus). Some of the key mapping is a bit off in mupen64, since it's a non-lr emulator and so needs manual adjjustments on config files. The othe problems are that the triggers aren't detected properly on controller setup, and I also encountered the "select" button issue above. Lastly, it the bluetooth doesn't automatically sync or connect up on reboot, and needs to be manually done each time, and it seems a bit hit or miss each time you try to pair/connect the controller. So there is progress. It is possible to get the Xbox One S Gamepad working via bluetooth in-game, but there are still kinks to be worked through. @sos_retropie I was wondering if you could share the steps you needed to do in order to get the controller working :) thanks a million! @sos_retropie I would also be interested ina step-by-step set of instruction. Been hitting various forums for a while now. This is the only one that comes close. @rmgreene I just followed the instructions in the first post (edited the bluetooth configuration file to say "N"). Edit as above Launch bluetooth configuration tool from the Emulation Station "Retropie" page Detect bluetooth devices The device "Xbox One S Wireless" should appear Select it - I think I was successful with the first pairing option. If not, keep trying - although it sometimes freezes your system and you have to reboot then start again from step #2 Once paired, exit back to EmulationStation (don't reboot, or you'll lose the pairing). Try to configure your control in the usual fashion in Emulation Station. If your Xbox One S pad is successfully detected, it should work, although you have to fudge the "select button". And the triggers didn't work for me. If step 7 works, see if it'll play in a retroarch-capable emulator e.g. lr-glupen64. Good luck & report back your successes / failures :) I've also been trying to get my xbox one s controller connected and am having little luck. Update Controller (Win10 Accessories) in terminal: "sudo su" then "echo 1 > /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm" Do as @rmgreene does above. Buttons "select" and the xbox button do not seem to register. Buttons "right trigger"and "left trigger" do some wacky shit (assigns against one of the joystick axis' and then skips the next input. ) So I skip those 4 buttons. I can then use the controller. Upon restart of the system, "/sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm" has set itself back to "N" and thus won't connect again. Can't seem to find anyone offering alternate solutions. EDIT: I figured I better try plugging the controller in with USB and see whether it would recognise the device or allow mapping. It did not recognise it. I have got my controller working without any faff now. Only the "select" button will not map, but you can use a different input (i remove left thumb and used that for select). If anyone is interested, give me a shout. @OurFriendIrony Yeah, I'm interested. How did you overcome the wacky triggers? Bypass them and use the shoulder buttons instead? How did you get it to recognise and reconnect each boot? Although I'm perfectly happy with my X360 wireless controller, I would quite like to use (via bluetooth) the slightly nicer Xbox One S sitting on the shelf waiting. Force bluetooth param to allow pairing. Edit the file /opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh to look like the following: This will stop the error when you try and connect your xbox one s bluetooth controller and insure that when your Pi turns on it will keep the paired device to sync. Pair Controller. Use the normal mechanism to pair your bluetooth controller (Retropie >> Bluetooth >> Register) Map Controller. So, baring in mind the Select button does not seem to register but select is typically an important button in games, pick now which button you would like to pretend to be the select button. I chose the left thumb stick button and will explain these steps as such. This set of instructions is a bit dramatic, but i spent about half an hour fighting this damn thing, so save yourself some pain and follow it. Use the controller mapping feature on emulationstation (Start >> Input) and hold A on your controller. Skip the following buttons: Now, before you select done, press up on the D pad and travel back up and perform the following actions in order: left thumb stick button skip right bumper hold right bumper for 2 seconds and let go left bumper hold left bumper for 2 seconds and let go right trigger hold right trigger for 2 seconds and let go left trigger hold left bumper for 2 seconds and let go select press left thumb stick in. Go back down to the done button and hit it. I now have a controller that works perfectly and always connects. @OurFriendIrony Thanks a lot! The controller now pairs at boot up, and after waking from sleep - a major step forward. It configures in ES just as you've outlined. The only issue for me now is that the triggers (mapped OK in ES) and select button (mapped to left thumb in ES) don't want to work in PSX emulation. Haven't tried with other emulators yet, but will do so tonight. The terminal / shell shows some error message that SDL doesn't recognise certain input keys, which seem likely the root of the problem, and suggests submitting the error to SDL developers. Damn, they seem to work in n64 emulation, ive been playing Majoras mask which maps somethings to the triggers. Let me know how it goes buddy! It'll be good to find a perfect solution, but at least you can use the controller. Let me know if you find anything more. Help! Trying to get mine to work as well. RP3B, Latest everything, Xbox One S controller, works wired. So in the bluetooth settings in Retropie-Setup, it see the controller. When I try to pair it, it asks for a security type. I choose the first one, and I get: "An error occured connecting to the bluetooth device (Creating device failed: org.bluez.Error.AlreadyExists: Already Exists)." I tried the next security setting (keyboard something or other) and it errors out and drops me in bash. I tried the echo 1> . as above, said that I had no permission, even with sudo. So I chmod disable_etrm to 777. Now I have permission, but I'm still not getting anywhere. Advice? (I'm a linux noob). Alright. so I was getting the prior error when I didn't first "remove" the device and try to re-discover it. After removing and re-discovering the controller (making sure the controller is in discover mode, obv), it drops me out to bash, and this is what I see (copied from a putty window): Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 604, in msg_r eply_handler.

It builds upon Raspbian, EmulationStation, RetroArch and many other projects to enable you to play your favourite Arcade, home-console, and classic PC games with the minimum set-up. For power users it also provides a large variety of configuration tools to customise the system as you want. RetroPie sits on top of a full OS, you can install it on an existing Raspbian, or start with the RetroPie SD image and add additional software later. It's up to you. An emulator is software that makes a computer behave like another computer, or in the case of RetroPie a computer that behaves like a video game console such as the Super Nintendo. The RetroPie SD image comes pre-installed with many different emulators. Additional emulators may be installed from within RetroPie. ROMs are digital versions of game cartridges. Loading up a ROM in an emulator is the equivalent of putting a cartridge in a game console. ROMs are copyrighted content and as such are not included with RetroPie. A BIOS is a small piece of software that tells hardware how to work. Many emulators emulate their system's BIOS, but others require you to supply a BIOS file. If a BIOS is required, the emulator's page will say so. BIOSs are also copyrighted and are therefore not included with RetroPie. Select your system for installation instructions: © 2018 GitHub , Inc.

Retropie Xbox One Controller Fixed. In this guide, you are going to learn how to connect your Xbox Wireless Controller in RetroPie on your Raspberry Pi. If you really enjoy this article, consider checking out my TechWizTime YouTube Channel. And for an awesome source of Raspberry Pi Accessories, check out my Raspberry Pi Amazon List. Let’s get started! What You’ll Need. Raspberry Pi 3 8GB MicroSD Card Keyboard Xbox One Wireless Controller Model “1708” Bluetooth Compatible. NOTE: Before starting this guide you will need to connect your Xbox One Controller to a Windows 10 PC via a USB cable, so your controller receives a firmware update. Disabling “ERTM” Bluetooth Mode. ERTM stands for Enhanced Re-Transmission Mode and causes issues when trying to connect the Bluetooth Xbox Wireless Controller with Retropie. So let’s disable it! Once you have booted up you Raspberry Pi into Retropie, you need to press F4 to open up the Command Prompt and type in the following. sudo nano opt/retropie/configs/all/autostart.sh. Scroll upwards and press Enter to create a line before the emulation station line. Then type in. sudo bash -c 'echo 1 > /sys/module/bluetooth/parameters/disable_ertm' Before we can continue, we need to do a quick reboot by typing. Connect the Xbox One Wireless Controller. Once Retropie has fully rebooted, you need to go to the Configuration menu. Now before you choose Register and Connect to Bluetooth Device you need to press the Xbox button on the Wireless Controller. After a few seconds, the device should appear in the list. Choose DisplayYesNo as the security mode. Now you should get the message Successfully Registered and Connected. But wait! The Xbox Wireless Controller is now connected but in order to use it in Retropie, we need to configure the inputs. Configure Your Controller’s Imput. Back on the Main Retropie screen, we need to get to the Start Menu. Press each button as they appear until you’ve matched all of them. NOTE: Some buttons may not be fully detected the first time around. If that’s the case, when you get to the end on the Input Configuration, scroll back up to the unrecognized buttons and try pressing the correct button again. In most cases, the second time around it works! Retropie Xbox One Controller Issue Fixed! Congratulations, you’ve just connected your Xbox One Bluetooth controller to RetroPie and successfully mapped your imput for all your Retrogaming needs.

Everything worked fine… except it will not recognize ‘select’ at all. Pressing the select button doesn’t get registered, even if I try and bind it to something other than select. I tried it on my actual Xbox One, to make sure that the select button works, and it does. Does your select button work properly? Yes, I have the same problem and I have tried three controller. I think he knew and that why he left that part out of the video. I do mention in the video that if it does happen, go back through the inputs and re-input the buttons that failed 🙂 This is successful for a lot of Xbox One Wireless controller owners 🙂 Here’s someone else with the same issue re: select button. Maybe update your video? Some people have the issue whilst others don’t. The fix for this is to not press OK at the end of mapping. Instead, go back up to the select button area and re-map it again. This isn’t limited to Xbox One controllers. It’s an issue with a few including 8BitDo. Which means that it’s really a driver issue within RetroPie. If you haven’t updated RetroPie in a while, this could be your fix too 🙂 Hope that helps out. I’ve definitely tried going to the end then scrolling back up but the select button still isn’t mappable, Scrolling back up did work for the right trigger though. Any idea how to get this working? I was able to get the select button working by updating from a fresh install of 4.3. In the Configuration Menu select “RetroPie Setup” then select “Update”. Right Trigger and Select button does not work with this process, That is why these steps are left out. As stated though, skip these buttons and once you reach the end, go back up the list and re input those buttons. It does work if you do it that way. Just don’t hit OKAY at the end 🙂 Hi, I have this model of Xbox One Gamepad (1708) and I followed all these steps of this tutorial. But my retropie (4.2.9) console doesn’t detect my Xbox One Controller when I tried to connect with “Register and Connect to Bluetooth device” Indeed I updated the gamepad firmware and change batteries. Bluetooth on Rpi3 is working fine. I’m playing with my 8bit NES Bluetooth gamepad with any problem. Is there any log file that I can see? Or any advice to fix this problem? OK – so here’s something that hints to the “select button” issue people are having – on the “Configure Input” screen, if you press (and hold) the Select button (instead of, say, the A button), the pie actually registers it as “Keyboard”, not as part of the Xbox controller. If you hold it, it actually takes you into the config for your keyboard. Nothing else to report – my triggers dont respond as anything so that kinda sucks. What if your retropie isn’t recognizing your xbox one s controllers at all? I have followed these instructions but retropie can’t even see the controllers ans just sit at the pairing screen while the controller is in pairing mode blinking. TechRadar. How to use an Xbox or PS4 controller with a Raspberry Pi. Video games in the 1980s were quite different from the latest crop of frag -'em- till- you're- dead point-and-shoot games. They were tastefully crafted 8- bit graphical masterpieces, with an intense storylines and gameplay that kept you engrossed for hours. If reading this makes you feel nostalgic, you can emulate the golden era of gaming consoles on your modern hardware and escape back to that golden era. The new quad-core Raspberry Pi 3 has enough numbercrunching power to recreate the video game consoles of yesteryear virtually. Most of the software that creates the defunct platforms is available as open source software, which you can install on top of a Raspbian distribution (distro). However, the easiest way to start playing vintage games on the Raspberry Pi is to install the purpose-made RetroPie distro, which packs a bundle of emulators. We have an indepth guide to turning your Raspberry Pi into a retro games console, which will go through all the steps, but we will also quickly show you how to get RetroPie working here, before attaching a games console controller to your Raspberry Pi. You can manually install RetroPie on top of an existing Raspbian distro but it's more convenient to use the pre-baked image. In addition to Raspberry Pi 3, the distro works with the older models as well, so make sure you grab the correct image. You need to transfer this image to at least a 4GB card, either using the dd command in Linux, such as. You also need a USB keyboard and mouse for some initial setup that you can't do remotely via SSH. We'll also hook up a compatible Wi-Fi adaptor to the Raspberry Pi, which won't work straight out of the box, but we'll get to that later. Most important of all, make sure you grab some gaming controllers to enjoy the games to the hilt, and RetroPie can work with various controllers, from cheap no-names ones to PS4 and Xbox One controllers. Once you've prepared the memory card with the RetroPie image, insert it into the Raspberry Pi, connect the controller, the Wi-Fi adaptor, the speakers and the USB input devices, hook it up to your HDMI monitor, and power it up. The Raspberry Pi boots directly into Emulation Station, which is the graphical interface it uses to enable you to switch between emulators. The interface asks you to configure the controller. However, before we do that, we have to tweak a couple of settings. Press the F4 key on the keyboard to exit the Emulation Station, then head to XTerminal. Basic setup. The first order of business is to expand the image to take over the entire card. In order to do this, bring up Raspbian's configuration utility with. and select the first option to expand the filesystem. Once that's done, head to the second option to change the default password for the pi user. Next up, head to the Advanced Options and select the SSH option to enable remote access. To ensure you use the maximum memory for gaming, head to the Memory Split option. If you're using a Raspberry Pi 3 or Raspberry Pi 2, allocate 512 to the GPU. Users of the older B+ model should earmark 256. Finally, scroll down to the Overclock option, where users of the Raspberry Pi 2 should select the Pi2 option. Once you've made all the changes, head back to the main menu and select 'Finish' to restart the Raspberry Pi and save changes. When you're back up again, press F4 once more to exit out of Emulation Station. We'll now get the Wi-Fi adaptor to work. Open the configuration file with: $ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces. and then change its contents to resemble the following: Make sure you replace the text in the wpa-ssid line with the SSID and password for your Wi-Fi network. Press Ctrl+X to save the file and exit the text editor. Now reboot the Raspberry Pi with sudo reboot . Once it comes back up, your Wi-Fi adaptor connects you to your router. From this point on, you can do the configuration remotely from another computer. Exit Emulation Station yet again and make a note of the IP address RetroPie has been assigned by your router. Assuming it's 192.168.3.111, you can now log in to it from another computer with sudo ssh pi@192.168.3.111 . Irrespective of how you're accessing the Raspberry Pi, the next order of business is to tweak some RetroPie-related settings. Change into the RetroPie-Setup directory with. and execute the configuration script with. The script fetches any required packages that are missing from your installation. When it's ready, the script displays an Ncurses-based menu. First up, scroll down to the second-to-last option, which updates the RetroPie-Setup script itself. Once it's done, re-launch the script and scroll down to the third option, labelled Setup/Configuration. In here, scroll down and select '323', which makes the necessary changes to display the RetroPie configuration menu in Emulation Station. This helps you make changes to the distro without heading back to the command line. Now, depending on your audio gear and how it's connected to the Raspberry Pi, you might need to handhold RetroPie before it can send audio output correctly. Select option '301' to configure the audio settings. If the default auto option isn't playing any sound, scroll down and select the output to which your speakers are connected. The menu also gives you the option to bring up the mixer to adjust the volume. Current page: Setting up RetroPie. Related articles. Tech deals, prizes and latest news.

RetroPie on Raspberry PI 3 with Xbox One Controller. RetroPie allows you to turn your Raspberry Pi into a retro-gaming machine. It builds upon Raspbian, EmulationStation, RetroArch and many other projects to enable you to play your favorite Arcade, home-console, and classic PC games with the minimum set up. To set it up you need the following: Raspberry PI 3 MicroSD card HDMI cable Powerbank or 5V 2.5A micro USB power supply Ethernet cable for initial setup. Installation. Installing RetroPie is very smooth and easy. You should start by downloading the SD image for your version of Raspberry Pi from https://retropie.org.uk/download/ and then extract the downloaded .gz file, which file will be a .img one. In order to install it on your SD card you need a program called Win32DiskImager, if you are on Windows. Your SD card might appear to have less capacity than the usual one. Mine is 32GB but, as you can see, it appears to be of 60MB. This is because I already used it for other Raspberry-related installations and because EXT4 file system is not visible on Windows systems. Click on Write and in about a minute the process will have been finished. For more info, or in case you are using Mac or Linux, you can read this guide. Afterwards, remove the SD card from your machine, plug it in your Raspberry PI and power it on. On the first boot, the filesystem will be expanded automatically and then you will be welcomed with a screen to configure your controllers. Configuration. To configure your Retropie system you can connect to it remotely through SSH. Find the IP in your network and then SSH using defaults: For all the available options you can run the following script: where you get a GUI with all the available options: Xbox One Controllers. Although many controllers are supported out of the box, mine, an Xbox One controller, appears to not be working properly. After some time, I realized that the problem lies with a specific model, the 1697 , so here is a workaround to fix it. While still on SSH, run the following commands: After rebooting, hold any button on your Xbox one controller and the controller name will appear at the bottom. Then the configuration menu will appear: Follow the onscreen instructions to configure the controller and if you want to skip a button, just press and hold this button for a few seconds . Installing Roms. Due to the nature/complexity of copyright/Intellectual Property Rights Law, which differs significantly from Country to Country, ROMs cannot be provided with RetroPie and must be provided by the user. You should only have ROMs of games that you own. If you have some you can connect through SFTP , using your favorite program like WinSCP or Cyberduck and simply drag-n-drop you ROMs to the appropriate folder. For example if you own a ROM of Super Mario Bros 3 you put it in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/nes . Install Nuget Packages on multiple projects.

This is the XBOX One controller and in order to work I plugged it into the USB port using the charging cable. I haven’t tried the Xbox Wireless Adapter, but based on this article I guess it’s pretty easy.

It doesn’t work for me in retropie 4.1 with lastest kernel. My model is 1697. I have mine in v3.7 and works fine but as I read in forums this is not the case for v4.1. You can have a look at this thread especially at this comment and give it a try. In addition, you can have a look at this comment and follow the steps presented. TechRadar. How to use an Xbox or PS4 controller with a Raspberry Pi. Now reboot the distribution one last time and this time continue with Emulation Station. If you've connected your controller, the distro will pick it up. Press and hold any key on the controller to help the distro correctly identify the controller. You will then be asked to map the keys on the controller. Be aware that this basic mapping is only for navigating around the graphical interface and helping you switch between the emulated system and selecting a game. Once you've set up the controller, you're dropped into the main menu of the Emulation Station interface. Now, to set up the controller for gaming, head to the RetroPie menu in Emulation Station and select the 'Configure RetroArch Keyboard/Joystick' option. Use the keyboard and select the first option, labelled 'Configure Joystick/Controller'. Then follow the on-screen prompts to set up your controller. If your controller doesn't have the buttons you're being asked for, just wait for a few seconds and the setup will move on to the next button. Controller drivers. If you use an Xbox 360 or a PS3 controller, you first have to install their drivers before RetroPie can pick them up. In earlier versions, this involved some hacking on the command line. However, in the latest version of the distro, it's a very simple and straightforward affair. Head to the RetroPie-Setup option in the RetroPie menu inside Emulation Station. This brings you to the Ncurses menu of the RetroPie-Setup script we were in earlier. Use the keyboard to select the third option to configure the distro. Scroll through the list and select the relevant option to install the driver for your controller – '318' to install the PS3 driver and number '332' to install the driver for the Xbox 360. The Xbox360 script downloads the xboxdrv driver and edits the /etc/rc.local file to start the driver on boot. The script adds entries for wired 360 controllers. If you are using wireless controllers, open the /etc/rc.local file in a text editor, hunt for the lines that begin with xboxdrv and replace the --id option with --wid . If you are using PS3 controllers, once you've installed the drivers using the script as described earlier, you're prompted to plug in the Bluetooth adaptor for the controllers. Even after you do so, RetroPie will fail to detect your controllers. This is to be expected, according to the developers. Exit the script and out of Emulation Station. Once you're back on the command line, switch to the /opt/retropie/supplementary/ps3controller/ directory and type. This nifty little utility should detect the Bluetooth adaptor and make it known to RetroPie. Now reboot the Raspberry Pi and, once it's back up, change to the /dev/input directory and list its contents with ls . If your controller has been detected, it's listed as js0. You can test the controller by using: which brings up the jstest program designed to test the features of a controller. Now head back to the RetroPie menu in Emulation Station and use the 'Configure RetroArch Keyboard/Joystick' option to set up your controller. And that's it – your controllers are now all set up and ready to go. You can do this with all your controllers and RetroPie saves the configuration and automatically loads it whenever you plug the controller in. You can now scroll through Emulation Station and play the pre-installed games with your controllers. Use a virtual gamepad. Don't sweat if you don't have a gaming controller – you can create and use a virtual one from within your phone or tablet instead. To create the virtual gamepad, head to the XTerminal and enter the following commands to install the required components: $ sudo dpkg -i node_latest_armhf.deb. Once you have the components, switch to the root user with the su command. You're prompted for the root user's password (raspberry). Once authenticated, enter. # git clone https://github.com/miroof/nodevirtual-gamepads. The above steps take a little time to complete. Once they've finished, you can launch the controller and enable it to start up automatically at boot: Now grab your phone or tablet, open the web browser (the developers recommend Google Chrome for best results) and enter the IP address of the Raspberry Pi in the address bar. You should now see a virtual controller on the page. Note that you need to configure your controller with and RetroArch just as you would with a physical controller. The game controller web application also provides haptic feedback – if you find it irritating, you can deactivate it by taking your device off vibration. Enjoyed this article?

Xbox One controllers still not working #1277. trixster1979 commented Feb 20, 2016. Despite the recent update to xboxdrv to try and resolve this issue, Xbox one controllers still do not seem to be working. I've updated the setup script, built xboxdrv from source but no luck. I've also tried installing the binary but that still doesn't help. Attaching thr controller brings up a load of dialogue in the console, and jstest seems to recognise it too, but pressing the buttons does not toggle a response from jstest. Emulationstation will not recognise that the pad is connected either. zerojay commented Feb 20, 2016. Can you please post the output of sudo lsusb for us here? trixster1979 commented Feb 20, 2016. Bus 001 Device 005: ID 046d:c52e Logitech, Inc. Bus 001 Device 007: ID 045e:02d1 Microsoft Corp. Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter. Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp. Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub. zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. There must be something more causing them to not work. Are you sure that the xpad driver has been blacklisted? TroyPi commented Feb 21, 2016. I am having the same issue. It does not work in the games. How do you know if the driver was blacklisted? zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. You can check to see if the xpad module is currently loaded into the kernel with the following: lsmod | grep xpad. If it returns with any line at all, likely "xpad", it means the kernel module is still loaded and that will interfere with xboxdrv working. So we can blacklist the xpad module from loading by doing the following: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf (Doesn't matter if it already exists or not.) Add in the following: Save the file and reboot. Then try running the above lsmod | grep xpad and see if it's loaded. If not, check your controllers and see if they are working properly and recognized. TroyPi commented Feb 21, 2016. and its not a US keyboard so I can't even find the | zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. Maybe redirect the output of lsmod to a text file and read it? trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. Ok, so lsmod | grep xpad gave this: ff_memless 4758 1 xpad. I added the blacklist as you instructed and lsmod | grep xpad now returns no result. However, the controller still does not function, and also jstest will now not recognise that the pad is attached either. lsusb now lists: Bus 001 Device 005: ID 046d:c52e Logitech, Inc. Bus 001 Device 004: ID 045e:02d1 Microsoft Corp. Bus 001 Device 003: IDe 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter.

I do not know if this is relevant or not. zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. Not relevant but thanks for pointing it out. Run: sudo ps aux | grep xboxdrv. trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. pi 15508 0.0 0.2 5972 1968 tty1 S+ 18:39 0:00 grep --color=auto xboxdrv. cyberneticwired commented Feb 21, 2016. mine displays a long string of text when i do it. trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. Does your controller work? What text is displayed? zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. trixter, you do not have xboxdrv running at all if that's the only line you get back. Xboxdrv must be running for Xbox One controllers to function. Here's what it looks like on my Pi 2 with xboxdrv running: trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. Right, so how do I get xboxdrv working properly? I thought updating the RetroPie setup script then installing xboxdrv would be enough? How do I get xboxdrv to start? zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. RetroPie-Setup script -> 3 Configuration -> Xboxdrv -> Enable Xboxdrv. trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. Ok, didn't realise I had to do that, sorry for being a noob. However after enabling it (it says something about adding stuff to rc.local) and rebooting I'm still getting nothing. Systemctl status rc-local.service tells me that rc.local failed to start on boot. I think this is a Jessie problem now, not an issue with xboxdrv. trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. I can get rc.local working with sudo sh -x /etc/cr.local. Now sudo ps aux | grep xboxdrv gives me the correct stuff and jstest will see the controller again, however I still cannot toggle any buttons. The controller won't work in Emulationstation but attempting to configure a controller does seem to detect that it's attached. zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. You can try clearing out your emulationstation setup controls by deleting /home/pi/.emulationstation/es_input.cfg I believe. Then when you boot up next, it will ask you to configure controls. trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. I think a more fundamental problem is that even though I've now seemingly got xboxdrv running correctly (and installed the fixed xboxdrv that was pushed to the retropie-setup script the other day) and the raspberry pi can 'see' the controller, neither jstest nor Emulationstation will recognise any button presses on the pad at all. So removing es_input.cfg won't make a difference until this issue is resolved. cyberneticwired commented Feb 21, 2016. Mine looks similar to yours zero. zerojay commented Feb 21, 2016. You can try to recompile the xboxdrv fork we got the Xbox One controller stuff from over here (https://github.com/antekone/xboxdrv) and let us know if that works for you but beyond that, I don't see anything else that I'm able to do here if it's still not working. trixster1979 commented Feb 21, 2016. Cyberneticwired, does your controller work? cyberneticwired commented Feb 21, 2016. No, I'm invirtuteDei from the other thread. cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. I also have three different Xbox one controllers I have tried and when I do the lsusb it says it is logic3? Don't know if that means anything or not. cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. And when I load rims on the bottom of the screen it says Xbox pad not configured but the menu won't let me configure so it detects it for sure. zerojay commented Feb 22, 2016. Make sure you've configured it in EmulationStation. cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. It doesn't let me when I go to configuration menu from pressing start. zerojay commented Feb 22, 2016. As mentioned above, delete es_input.cfg, restart emulationstation and try again. joolswills commented Feb 22, 2016. deleting es_input.cfg will remove the hook to trigger input configuration - if removing it, you will need to reinstall emulationstation from retropie-setup menu 5 to restore the default config. trixster1979 commented Feb 22, 2016. Ok, I'll give that a try but why doesnt jstest work correctly? Pressing any button on the controller does not toggle the relevant on/off. cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. Okay, I'm going to reinstall emulation station from source to see if that might solve the configuration issue. joolswills commented Feb 22, 2016. There is no benefit from doing that - reinstall from binary (after removing the es_systems.cfg if you want to reset the ES config) cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. Dumb question, but how do I remove the config file? joolswills commented Feb 22, 2016. cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. Okay deleted the config file and reinstalled emulation station from binary, still no luck. Only recognizes Keyboard in welcome screen. trixster1979 commented Feb 22, 2016. I'm convinced the updated xboxdrv is still not picking up the controller correctly. If it did then surely jstest would work correctly. What exactly was done to xboxdrv to try and regain compatibility with the latest controller firmware? cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. My biggest thing is I know it works because I had the same firmware on my controller and I got it working two weeks ago (had to wipe sdcard so I lost it) from some forum that I found but I can't find it again.. trixster1979 commented Feb 22, 2016. I reckon our best bet is if you can find that forum. cyberneticwired commented Feb 22, 2016. I am not hoping on it, i have been searching for it since i wiped my sd card. trixster1979 commented Feb 22, 2016. I've deleted the es_input.cfg file too and reinstalled from binary. No good, both my Xbox one controllers still refuse to work. Back to the drawing board. Did someone on Reddit say xpad miight have been updated with a fix for the newest controllers? Is it worth installing that to see if it works? How would one go about doing that? TroyPi commented Feb 23, 2016. You can check to see if the xpad module is currently loaded into the kernel with the following: lsmod | grep xpad. If it returns with any line at all, likely "xpad", it means the kernel module is still loaded and that will interfere with xboxdrv working. So we can blacklist the xpad module from loading by doing the following: sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf (Doesn't matter if it already exists or not.) Add in the following: Save the file and reboot. Then try running the above lsmod | grep xpad and see if it's loaded. If not, check your controllers and see if they are working properly and recognized. RetroPie-Setup script -> 3 Configuration -> Xboxdrv -> Enable Xboxdrv. Mine worked after all this was done, YAHOO! cyberneticwired commented Feb 23, 2016. I know I have and pretty sure trixster have already tried that, but I will try again it won't hurt. TroyPi commented Feb 23, 2016. what I don't like is that I lost the function of the keyboard with exception to the f4 key. maybe I need to set it up as a controller, another problem is, I cannot change the mapping to my US k/b. cyberneticwired commented Feb 23, 2016. I would rather have my controller working instead of my keyboard. cyberneticwired commented Feb 24, 2016. Anyone else have suggestions? :/ Mhnl1979 commented Feb 28, 2016. I followed the steps above from TroyPi, now my xbox controller is recognised with the white light on the wire, but it isnt recognised by the Emulation Station. What next.? Ive updated retropie from clean install, blacklisted xpad and updated xboxdrv and enabled it. So no result. zerojay commented Feb 28, 2016. "You can try to recompile the xboxdrv fork we got the Xbox One controller stuff from over here (https://github.com/antekone/xboxdrv) and let us know if that works for you but beyond that, I don't see anything else that I'm able to do here if it's still not working." Has no one built the version of xboxdrv from that other repository like I mentioned earlier in the thread? If that version of xboxdrv does not work for you, there's nothing I can do for you either and you'll have to wait for that person to update his xboxdrv fork to fix it. Send him this bug as well so he's at least aware there are issues. I'll see if there are any other pull requests out there that fix this for xboxdrv but I'm not currently hopeful. Mhnl1979 commented Feb 28, 2016. How can I do that? What command i have to type? Sorry being a Noor, but im very excited to learn ☺️. Mhnl1979 commented Mar 4, 2016. Followed the steps from the following link after fresh install retropie 3.5, updating script, updating xboxdrv, blacklisting xpad. And it worked! Hooray! zerojay commented Mar 5, 2016. That link is about using xpad though. Mhnl1979 commented Mar 5, 2016. I think i didn't blacklisted xpad. Id check that out. But the linux-headers are also installed. So maybe that did the trick. trixster1979 commented Mar 5, 2016. I rolled back the firmware in one of my controllers to 2014 firmware (http://mjr.mn/XboxOnePCDriversx86) but it still does not work, either with xpad or xboxdrv. Xpad does the trick of 'seeing' and it'll show up in jstest, but again button presses will not toggle and emulation station will not recognise button presses even though it sees a pad is connected. Were it not for other people having problems I'd start to think there was something badly wrong with my setup. Probably a stupid q, but has anyone tried burning a fresh sd card with a new RetroPie image to see if that works with the xboxdrv update? cyberneticwired commented Mar 5, 2016. Man, I gave up and just invested in a wired 360 controller for $30. zerojay commented Mar 5, 2016. Just making sure, but you aren't trying to use xpad and xboxdrv at the same time, right? trixster1979 commented Mar 6, 2016. Nope, xpad is blacklisted, the new xboxdrv is loaded. I've tried re-enabling xpad to see if it works with the rolled-back pad firmware but it still doesn't work, so I've re-blacklisted it. LuisDiazUgena commented Mar 8, 2016. I've a xbox controller that doesn't work at all. I've checked lsmod | grep xpad and there is no output. I've blacklisted xpad and enable xboxdvr from retropiesetup. I got kernel Linux 4.1.18-v7+ running on Rpi2. What should I do next? Mhnl1979 commented Mar 8, 2016. @trixster1979 I did, but it didn't work. Even after updating the setup script. My guess is updating the linux-headers did the trick. trixster1979 commented Mar 9, 2016. Yeah, judging by reports that's the only way forward, but I'm assuming it's not a permanent solution as they'll be overwritten when the system is updated. mindbl0wn commented Mar 10, 2016. @Mhnl1979 so I am following the link you posted but i am stuck, I cant seem to install the linux header 4.1.13-v7+, getting errors while dpkg. UPDATE: got it to work, i had to install old retropie v3.1 with kernel 4.1.7. Mhnl1979 commented Mar 11, 2016. I thought I red somewhere that the older Linux kernel the solution was. Good you've got it to work. Does retropie work with two controllers? Cause he gave an error while connecting. mindbl0wn commented Mar 12, 2016. they should work with 2 controllers, in fact even more than 2. I have not got to try with multiple controllers as I only have one right now which is my xbox one controller. trixster1979 commented Mar 12, 2016. Can you post exactly what you did? mindbl0wn commented Mar 12, 2016. what i did first was find an old version of retropie, luckily i found one which was 3.1 and the kernel that came with 3.1 was 4.1.7. After that i followed the steps provided by the link @Mhnl1979 posted. In the link it says to install linux headers 4.1.13 but since 3.1 came with 4.1.7, I had to install that. Then once I was done with everything, I rebooted retropie and my controller turned on and it was recognized. Also I am using xpad, I did not need to blacklist it or even install xboxdrv. Everything is working fine. Twitch0815 commented Apr 25, 2016. Just going to add this, I have two padhacked Xbox one controllers on Retropie 3.7 only one was recognized. Second one did not even power up its led, but swapping in the latest version of Recalbox . Seems that whatever they did with. Patched xpad driver to support Xbox One controllers in USB mode. Fixes any issues I was having. Can we merge whatever changes they made to the xpad driver into the Retropie release? joolswills commented Apr 25, 2016. We don't manage our own kernel - RetroPie sits on top of existing OS. PR would need to go to raspberrypi/linux (but they may well not want to include stuff like this) Twitch0815 commented Apr 25, 2016. Don't know if I did it right first pull request I have made. joolswills commented Apr 25, 2016. this should work when the kernel 4.4 is packaged as it includes the changes. people can test earlier by using rpi-update. BobocheDude commented Jul 15, 2016. Upgrading to the latest kernel doesn't work with my :02dd Xbox one controller. Actually nothing above works so far :( trixster1979 commented Jul 15, 2016. Agreed, Xbox one controllers still don't work. I've just upgraded to retropie 4 beta 2 in the hope that this has been fixed but no, xpad and xboxdrv still don't recognise either of my controllers. joolswills commented Jul 15, 2016 • what is the output of uname -a ? are you using the xpad (kernel) driver or xboxdrv (userspace) ? (did you try with both ?) Unfortunately I don't have this controller, so I can't really do any testing. joolswills commented Jul 15, 2016 • sorry. missed where you said you tried both - still need the output of uname -a though. Also, note that retropie is not responsible for kernel support for hardware, although I did submit a patch to enable LED support with xpad for the raspbian kernel which should be included in their next packaged release (or via rpi-update for testing) joolswills commented Jul 15, 2016. I will also see if there are any missing kernel options in the Raspbian kernel for xbox one support. joolswills commented Jul 15, 2016. All options are enabled that should be. I know there have been some xpad improvements since 4.4 so you might need to wait for the next kernel version. Also did you try https://github.com/paroj/xpad ? afreeorange commented Jul 15, 2016 • I got the controller working on the latest stable version of RetroPie (v3.8.1) and model 1697 of the controller. Did not upgrade the underlying system (the kernel's at v4.4.11) and did not need xboxdrv (i.e., worked fine with xpad ) and started with a fresh install. Was quite happy to see the controller light up after a vexing couple of hours :) Hope this helps. ksj01 commented Jul 16, 2016. Thanks, that worked great! There were two slight changes I needed to get this to work, which involved installing bc and dkms. The modified instructions are below. trixster1979 commented Jul 16, 2016. I have tried both xpad and xboxdrv with no luck. uname -a prints the following: Linux RetroPie 4.4.15-v7+ #897 SMP Tue Jul 12 18:42:55 BST 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux. I tried the fix above this post and it still did not work for either of my xbox one controllers. jonmarimba commented Jul 16, 2016. Anywhere you see sudo install you probably want sudo apt-get install , otherwise @ksj01's instructions worked for me. Reboot with the controller connected via USB, hold down A when it asks you to, run through the on-screen configuration wizard and my xbox one controller is working like a champ so far. afreeorange commented Jul 16, 2016 • @ksj01 : Thanks for fixing that! @trixster1979: Disable xboxdrv , un-blacklist xpad , reboot, and try this or email me if you have no luck: ksj01 commented Jul 23, 2016 • @afreeorange Thank YOU for doing all the heavy lifting! @wrongwaymarv try typing: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic. and then start over from. andrellibus commented Jul 28, 2016. I followed the guide that @afreeorange made (thanks a lot by the way) but i have a problem, the triggers are both not recognized as inputs when i try to map the buttons from the configure main menu>configure input. Am i the only one experiencing this problem? ksj01 commented Jul 28, 2016. Not just you. I think it has something to do with the way the triggers are. able to sense a variable amount of pressure (think acceleration in a racing. game; pull the triggers slightly and they only slightly apply). When I was. configuring the controllers, the right trigger worked great but the left. trigger was effectively useless. I'm unsure of a solution. On Thu, Jul 28, 2016 at 3:45 PM, andrellibus notifications@github.com. made (thanks a lot by the way) but i have a problem, the triggers are both. not recognized as inputs when i try to map the buttons from the configure. main menu>configure input. Am i the only one experiencing this problem? You are receiving this because you were mentioned. Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub. or mute the thread. Tomino2112 commented Aug 6, 2016. I have followed @afreeorange advice, and manage to configure my xbox 360 wireless controllers but I can use them only in the emulationstation menu. No gui nor any game does pickup the controllers and controllers keep blinking. When I re-enable xboxdrv controllers get "selected" - the led stops on some position, even though both stop on position 1, but I cannot even get pass configuration. On the config screen It says it detected 2 controllers, but pressing/holding anything on the controllers does nothing. Any ideas? thanks! joolswills commented Aug 11, 2016. I have added the updated xpad driver to retropie-setup now (under packages -> drivers). I also forced the LED config to be on. HerbFargus commented Aug 11, 2016. I'll give it a test when I've got some time with my wireless 360 controllers. joolswills commented Aug 11, 2016. Thanks. I've tested it with my wired 360 and it works fine. HerbFargus commented Aug 11, 2016 • I've tested with two controllers and I can confirm it works. it was flashing a bit but it was just due to low batteries, it would still show the player but would flash intermittently. There is the same caveat as with the logitech controllers with the triggers being treated as axes, sometimes my controllers would be unresponsive in retroarch emulators until I tapped the triggers repeatedly. to solve it I followed the guide here: I basically had to set the axes to positive in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/Xbox360WirelessReceiver(XBOX).cfg : I would presume its the same for XBox One controllers, but I don't have any to test. bjorse commented Aug 13, 2016. My PowerA Xbox One MIni Controller (wired) now works thanks to the upgraded script and after upgrading xpad. It didn't work at all previously with either xboxdrv or xpad. The only thing not working is the indicator on the controller, but I can totally live without that as it's really bright anyway. flaregon commented Aug 20, 2016. bjorse which guide ? I got the PowerA Xbox one mini controller, 2 days ago, and it wont read in anything. when I do lsusb it shows id: 24cd:541a and no other infromation. bjorse commented Aug 20, 2016. No particular guide. I just updated the RetroPie script through the menu (RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh), then I updated/installed xpad, deactivated xboxdrv, and then it just worked (after reboot). Make sure xpad is not blacklisted by typing lsmod | grep xpad . If nothing prints out, you're fine. Otherwise, you need to remove the blacklist from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf . bjorse commented Aug 20, 2016. Updating xpad and deactivating xboxdrv is done through the RetroPie-Setup menu as well. siuburu commented Aug 21, 2016. Xpad Update and removing xboxdrv worked for me(Xbox One COD: MW Edition Controller). Hoping to see how to make the wireless adapter work with retropie. Tomino2112 commented Aug 22, 2016 • Still same for me. Exactly as I described it above. I updated retropie through the setup script and then updated xpad through the script and no change to behavior. Is there any way I can debug whats happening with controllers? Sometimes they just stop reacting and all other issues described above, maybe we could find something in logs? joolswills commented Aug 22, 2016. @Tomino2112 did you disable xboxdrv ? Tomino2112 commented Aug 22, 2016. @joolswills Yes. Actually I have to add that now I was able to make some stuff work. I have re-positioned the receiver and controllers dont just stop reacting anymore. Unfortunately still same problem, controllers just keep blinking, "player"not being selected and I can use only one controller at a time, if I use two it behaves strangely, one controller working then suddenly not working and the other picks up etc. joolswills commented Aug 22, 2016. What is the output of for js in /dev/input/js*; do echo $js; udevadm info $js; done; dkms status ? Tomino2112 commented Aug 22, 2016. One controller connected: Two controllers connected: Interesting, first time I run it with one controller it showed whats above. Then The controller was idle for. 15m and switched off. I switched it on again, run the command again and it showed: joolswills commented Aug 22, 2016 • What set up do you have ? What PSU are you using ? (what's the output ?). What is the output of dmesg ? Retrosash commented Aug 25, 2016. yesterday i received my new xbox one controller: With a USB Cable it worked like a charm in Retropie 4.0 out of the box. But i can't get it to work with the delivered wireless dongle. Read the posts before but i'm not sure if someone got the wireless finally get to work. joolswills commented Aug 25, 2016. Retrosash commented Aug 25, 2016. Oh man, thanks for the answer. I wish you had never wrote this. So still waiting for support. chus3r commented Oct 4, 2016 • I'm a little confused when trying to follow the thread above. We're running a Pi3, new Xbox One controller and have been unable to get the Pi to recognized the attached controller. When using xboxdrv EmulationStation would recognize a second controller, but would no buttons would allow it to be configured. Using xpad, I've not been able to get anything to work. When I put the following in: for js in /dev/input/js*; do echo $js; udevadm info $js; done; dkms status. I get (sorry for the formatting, I can't get it to display code correctly) E: DEVLINKS=/dev/input/by-id/usb-PowerA_Xbox_ONE_liquid_metal_controller_00007947A0B2CF70-joystick /dev/input/by-path/platform-3f980000.usb-usb-0:1.3:1.0-joystick. E: TAGS= 💺 uaccess: xpad, 0.4, 4.4.21-v7+, armv7l: installed (original_module exists) I just need a little help getting this thing figured out before I try putting ROMs on here. chus3r commented Oct 5, 2016. Most of the other videos and guides I've seen on Reddit, YouTube, etc are all referencing old builds and there have been so many changes to RetroPie that it's not proving useful. I think I'm going to have to find a 360 controller somewhere and see if I can get that to work. Retrosash commented Oct 5, 2016. Just one question regarding the version you're running on your pi. I'm running 4.0 and my xbox one controller (new 1697) was running very well with an usb cable after installing the xpad driver. Wundering about the name, too. Mine was detected as Microsoft X-Box One pad (Firmware 2015) with dmesg. I'm also running a second xbonx one controller (1537) with the xpax driver. Mayber your usb cable is broken. chus3r commented Oct 5, 2016. @Retrosash It's brand new, but it is not from Microsoft, but PowerA, that could be the culprit. I thought it was a standard controller when I bought it. Now that you bring this up I'm going to see if I can get a Microsoft controller and see what happens. joolswills commented Oct 5, 2016. I'm closing this issue now - as we now include xpad by default and it is reported as working. Those with trouble - please use the RetroPie forum for support. Thanks. © 2018 GitHub , Inc.

If you've connected your controller, the distro will pick it up. Press and hold any key on the controller to help the distro correctly identify the controller. You will then be asked to map the keys on the controller. Be aware that this basic mapping is only for navigating around the graphical interface and helping you switch between the emulated system and selecting a game. Once you've set up the controller, you're dropped into the main menu of the Emulation Station interface. Now, to set up the controller for gaming, head to the RetroPie menu in Emulation Station and select the 'Configure RetroArch Keyboard/Joystick' option. Use the keyboard and select the first option, labelled 'Configure Joystick/Controller'. Then follow the on-screen prompts to set up your controller. If your controller doesn't have the buttons you're being asked for, just wait for a few seconds and the setup will move on to the next button. Controller drivers. If you use an Xbox 360 or a PS3 controller, you first have to install their drivers before RetroPie can pick them up. In earlier versions, this involved some hacking on the command line. However, in the latest version of the distro, it's a very simple and straightforward affair. Head to the RetroPie-Setup option in the RetroPie menu inside Emulation Station. This brings you to the Ncurses menu of the RetroPie-Setup script we were in earlier. Use the keyboard to select the third option to configure the distro. Scroll through the list and select the relevant option to install the driver for your controller – '318' to install the PS3 driver and number '332' to install the driver for the Xbox 360. The Xbox360 script downloads the xboxdrv driver and edits the /etc/rc.local file to start the driver on boot. The script adds entries for wired 360 controllers. If you are using wireless controllers, open the /etc/rc.local file in a text editor, hunt for the lines that begin with xboxdrv and replace the --id option with --wid . If you are using PS3 controllers, once you've installed the drivers using the script as described earlier, you're prompted to plug in the Bluetooth adaptor for the controllers. Even after you do so, RetroPie will fail to detect your controllers. This is to be expected, according to the developers. Exit the script and out of Emulation Station. Once you're back on the command line, switch to the /opt/retropie/supplementary/ps3controller/ directory and type. This nifty little utility should detect the Bluetooth adaptor and make it known to RetroPie. Now reboot the Raspberry Pi and, once it's back up, change to the /dev/input directory and list its contents with ls . If your controller has been detected, it's listed as js0. You can test the controller by using: which brings up the jstest program designed to test the features of a controller. Now head back to the RetroPie menu in Emulation Station and use the 'Configure RetroArch Keyboard/Joystick' option to set up your controller. And that's it – your controllers are now all set up and ready to go. You can do this with all your controllers and RetroPie saves the configuration and automatically loads it whenever you plug the controller in. You can now scroll through Emulation Station and play the pre-installed games with your controllers. Use a virtual gamepad. Don't sweat if you don't have a gaming controller – you can create and use a virtual one from within your phone or tablet instead. To create the virtual gamepad, head to the XTerminal and enter the following commands to install the required components: $ sudo dpkg -i node_latest_armhf.deb. Once you have the components, switch to the root user with the su command. You're prompted for the root user's password (raspberry). Once authenticated, enter. # git clone https://github.com/miroof/nodevirtual-gamepads. The above steps take a little time to complete. Once they've finished, you can launch the controller and enable it to start up automatically at boot: Now grab your phone or tablet, open the web browser (the developers recommend Google Chrome for best results) and enter the IP address of the Raspberry Pi in the address bar. You should now see a virtual controller on the page. Note that you need to configure your controller with and RetroArch just as you would with a physical controller. The game controller web application also provides haptic feedback – if you find it irritating, you can deactivate it by taking your device off vibration. Enjoyed this article?
