Controller not working ingame Recalbox 9.1

[dark-sheep]

Hello Ladys and Gentlemen!

I using Recalbox 9.1 with the GPI Case 2 and have the same Problem like many other people with the Controllers. The GPI Case 2 works great with the built in Buttons and every System is playable (as long as the buttons are enough like Gameboy, NES etc.). But then i use it with the dock and try to play N64 as example nothing works. Gameboy is playable with an external Controller ( XBOX Controller, USB SNES Gamepad, Nintendo Switch Pro Controller) but N64 get no Button Input.

I have tried the mentioned Controller and nothing works with this System. I have tried all Controller drivers, the same happens. I'm forced to shut the system down then i start a N64 Game.

Is there any solution to make it work?

Thanks in advance for your answer

@davidb2111 I'm wondering if there are any updates here? Still working on it, or is there a fix in place that I haven't been able to find yet?

@meeco777
Lots of fixes are pushed, now. They are coming on 9.2 (a patreon build is going to be built)

@davidb2111 do you know if it's possible (/how) to install the Patreon build on GPi Case 2?

@davidb2111 I think a have a trouble with my GPIO controleurs so i ask here : My arcade's controlleurs (connected to GPIO ports) are not recognized in Rbox 9.2 is that because i'm trying to make it works on a new RPi5 ?? os there something different to do then older Pi ? or older Recalbox ?

similar issue here, v9.1 but certain games do work (within emulators that other games do not). The other issue is my wired rock candy (switch) controller tends to have better luck than my generic BT "ps3" controller. When it doesn't work its also not necessarily the whole gamepad. I can start the game (maybe) and navigate, but the XYAB keys are non responsive. When in the main UI, everything works including re-mapping the buttons.

@dwfmba same problem here. Gpi case 2, recalbox 9.1.

When docked, all my controllers (usb wired and with 8bitdo dongle) works while in menu but when launching a game, it doesnt work, like the gpi case built in controller was going back as player one i guess.

Sometimes it works but the mapping is weird.

Hope there is a solution.

Regards.
