N64 Controller wrong mapping - DragonRise Gen. USB

westh

Hi, I have buy some controller Nes, Snes and N64, The only one that is not working is the N64. I have read all post about N64 controller and I am not the only one having issue. I have trying modify the file mupenControllers.py from python2.7 and I am not sure where do I add or change configuration because no mapping are present for button. So there is the button that work and not:

D-pad all work well
Joy-pad seem to take the D-pad mapping
C-pad not working, the only one working is the c-down = Z trigger and c-right = A button
A not working
B not working
Left & Right not working
Z not working

Here is the result I have from evtest

D-pad
up code 17 (ABS_HAT0Y), value -1
down code 17 (ABS_HAT0Y), value 1
left code 16 (ABS_HAT0X), value -1
right code 16 (ABS_HAT0X), value 1

Joystick
up
down
left
right

Start code 297 (BTN_BASE4), value 1

B code 296 (BTN_BASE3), value 1

A code 294 (BTN_BASE), value 1

C-pad
up code 288 (BTN_TRIGGER), value 1
down code 290 (BTN_THUMB2), value 1
left code 291 (BTN_TOP), value 1
right code 289 (BTN_THUM😎, value 1

Left code 292 (BTN_TOP2), value 1

Right code 293 (BTN_PINKIE), value 1

Z code 295 (BTN_BASE2), value 1

After that I run sdl2-jstest --list and I always got error and same error appears when game running:

Unable to init SDL: No available video device

All roms from all emulator work well. I have also try with Emulstation directly from Windows and the N64 pad work as expected, the only thing is I want Batocera because of portability and low ressources consumption.

To finish this, thanks to all from Batocera very good retrogamer OS.

westh Left & Right not working

After workaround the Left & Right seems working well

nadenislamarre

for sdl2-jstest --list , do export DISPLAY=:0.0 before.

for example :
"A not working" should work. did you configure your pad using menu>controller>configure a pad ?

Hi nadenislamarre,

Thanks for your fast reply.

sdl2-jstest work now 🙂

Here is the information I receive:

Joystick Name: 'DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick '
Joystick Path: '/dev/input/event22'
Joystick GUID: 03000000790000000600000010010000
Joystick Number: 0
Number of Axes: 4
Number of Buttons: 12
Number of Hats: 1
Number of Balls: 0
GameController:

Axis code 0: 0

Button code 0: 288
Button code 1: 289
Button code 2: 290
Button code 3: 291
Button code 4: 292
Button code 5: 293
Button code 6: 294
Button code 7: 295
Button code 8: 296
Button code 9: 297
Button code 10: 298
Button code 11: 299
Hat code 0: 16

So if I am not wrong, here is what is suppose to done:
left code 16 (ABS_HAT0X), value -1
right code 16 (ABS_HAT0X), value 1

Joystick
up
down
left
right

Start code 297 (BTN_BASE4), value 1 Button Code: 9

B code 296 (BTN_BASE3), value 1 Button Code: 8

A code 294 (BTN_BASE), value 1 Button Code: 6

C-pad
up code 288 (BTN_TRIGGER), value 1 Button Code: 0
down code 290 (BTN_THUMB2), value 1 Button Code: 2
left code 291 (BTN_TOP), value 1 Button Code: 3
right code 289 (BTN_THUMB ), value 1 Button Code: 1

Left code 292 (BTN_TOP2), value 1 Button Code: 4

Right code 293 (BTN_PINKIE), value 1 Button Code: 5

Z code 295 (BTN_BASE2), value 1 Button Code: 7

So I have try to change the controller with configure a pad and I have configure the d-pab and button A & B just to know if it work and it work at menu but when mugen is started, the config file overwrite it.

Here is what I have in 007 Golden Eye controller menu:

D-Pad -> OK
Joystick -> OK
Start - > OK
A = Z + C-Right
B = A
C-UP = C-UP + C-DOWN
C-LEFT -> OK
C-DOWN = Nothing
C-RIGHT = B
L = OK
R = OK
Z = Nothing

I will try to edit the mupenControllers.py for now.

After some trying and editing, I finally have a working controller, The controller work first time because it is already in your file but doesn't have the good mapping. Here is the good mapping:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<inputList>
<inputConfig type="joystick" deviceName="DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick " deviceGUID="03000000790000000600000010010000">

<input name="l2" type="button" id="7" value="1" code="295" />
</inputConfig>
</inputList>

The only button that is not working and I have try all combinaison, is the C-down, no button available to use it. Do you have any clue? It will be great to have with 007.

Thanks!

westh

Does anyone have the solution for the C-down mapping?

I also have Dragonrise controllers on my bartop.
I have played and completed goldeneye 007 on Wii reconfigurating buttons and sticks in the dolphin configuration menu.
Or, from 5.21 on (I am on 5.20) all individual configuration on Wii is overwrited by some standard. So in my case, when I looked with view up, silly guy pull out smartphone. So for me all Batocera versions after 5.20 are not working anymore.
