      Ignore question #1. I can just rename back.

        @sroach just rename back :

        cp /usr/bin/xarcade2jstick-old /usr/bin/xarcade2jstick
        

        for support archive https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/4054/a-lire-avant-de-poster-merci

          @ian57,

          I can initiate the support script from my recalbox, I get the following error message:

          Close alertconnect ECONNREFUSED 144.76.136.153:443

          Just as a heads up, after trying the "xarcade2jstick-rpi3" update everything on my tankstick is working as before. I tried multiple games (1 -player, dual player, track ball) I tried multiple emulators (mame, NES, SNES, Sega, Daphne)

          Everything is working fine for me and like it did before the patch.

            @sroach yes it's normal. There is an error but the archive is well created? Can you post it here please?

              I sent you a link to my google drive on discord with two archive files that were saved.
              recalbox-support-b7bd4b9e-3014-f078-6b16-529c4045e945.tar.gz

              I didn't have issue when I went from 6 to 7 or 7.01
              it always ran well for me.
              I am in mode 4 (Switch on the back) by the way, not sure what other people use.

                      OK, detects the tankstick, sometimes it see it as 2 new controllers and some boot ups it detected it as 4 new controllers.

                      I am having some issues, I can get the right side of the tankstick (second player controllers configured) but not the left side (player 1).

                      But.. if I switch the mode to #4 and then back again I can get the left side seen and configured, until I reboot.

                      once everything is configured I have lost the ability to bring up the name menu to reconfigure buttons. controller or keyboard no button or button combination brings up the same menu.

                      Would you like me to grab the archive file?

                        @sroach did you try the trackball? Apparently it is not working in mode 4

                                Just gave it a try and the trackball is working fine for me in mode 4.

                                Everything is working well.

                                    See message on discord for the latest archive file.

                                    So far everything has been working, I tested several games on the following emulators. All buttons and the trackball are working. the only button that does not work (can't map it) is the mouse 3 button X-Arcade has added as a mouse 3 button.

                                    Emulators tested:

                                    Mame
                                    NES
                                    SNES
                                    Atari 2600
                                    Atari ST
                                    Daphne
                                    Doom
                                    All the preloaded Ports games
                                    Sega CD

                                    Tried the trackball with:

                                    Missle Command
                                    Centipede
                                    Golden Tee

                                    I haven't found anything that is not working yet, unless I switch to mode 3 on the tankstick.

                                    Please let me know if I can help out further.

                                          Bonjour,
                                          Ce « patch » est-il adapté pour le x-arcade Dual Stick (usb) ?
                                          Actuellement en Recalbox 7.1.1, mon stick ne fonctionne pas (non reconnu).
                                          J’arrive à le faire fonctionner uniquement en ajoutant l’extension x-arcade PS2 couplée aux adaptateurs PS3 ... bref : 1kg de câbles. Pas top pour un petit Rpi3b+.
                                          Je souhaiterais pouvoir le brancher simplement en usb 🙂
                                          Merci d’avance pour votre aide 🙏🏻
