Y axis inverted in Switch bluetooth controller

[OyyoDams]

@xphere hi,

Just remap your controller in Recalbox options.

Thanks OyyoDams!

That is the first thing I tried, but no matter how I configure the joystick, the Y axis is always inverted.

I have tried in the configuration to press up the joystick when is asked to press "joy up" and still appears inverted. I have tried to press down the joystick when is asked to press "joy up", but again, the Y axis is inverted.

Maybe I should look on some config file, where I can see the exact mapping of the controller?

[OyyoDams]

@xphere can you make a support archive ?

[xphere]

Sure! I will do!

Btw, I have seen that if I open a game and enter into retroarch config, I can swap direction of Y axis and then works fine, but since config is not stored, that configuration is lost when I switch to another game.

@OyyoDams What do you mean by "support archive"? do you mean to open an issue in GitLab?

@xphere please try the following. Edit es_input.cfg file, and replace:

	<inputConfig type="joystick" deviceName="Pro Controller" deviceGUID="050000007e0500000620000001000000" deviceNbAxes="4" deviceNbHats="1" deviceNbButtons="16">

	</inputConfig>

Then try again with a game

@OyyoDams said in Y axis inverted in Switch bluetooth controller:

050000007e0500000620000001000000

Thanks for the reply. I've done the modification, but the issue persist. I've done the following:
1- Access via sftp and modify the file
2- Reboot recalbox
3- Tried the emulators: snes, genesis, neo-geo and Doom. All still have the Y axis inverted.

It's strange, because in the config file the Y axis seems to be inverted in the new cnofig file, so, should work...

Any other idea?

EDIT: I have tried modifying another line, just for debugging. So I've replaced, for the same controller:

		<input name="joystick1left" type="axis" id="0" value="-1" code="0" />

By this one:

	<input name="joystick1left" type="axis" id="0" value="1" code="0" />

But also, no effect, so the X axis has not been inverted either... maybe this is not the right controller config that should be modifying?
