N64 Controller

[lackyluuk]

@paradadf you are great. You brought a lot of light into this. Many thanks, mate!!

Did I miss this drawing somewhere in the wiki?

I'll try this out and let you now if this is a proper solution.

[paradadf]

@lackyluuk the drawing is from RetroPie, thus the mapping not matching the used on recalbox. But for illustration purposes, it works

[lackyluuk]

@paradadf I try to figure it out then we can have one for recalbox

Or you need the magic undocumented secret of n64 custom config ...

[lackyluuk]

@Substring sounds interesting, let me know more about it and maybe we can change it to documented then

@lackyluuk Here is the trick :

1. add n64.configfile=appfelsaft to your recalbox.conf file
2. edit /recalbox/share/system/configs/mupen64/InputAutoCfg.ini like in the old days of 3.3
3. launch your rom

As you may have guessed, the appfelsaft is the most important trick. It doesn't work with bretzel

(in fact the n64.configfile just has to be set to any value

[lackyluuk]

@Substring hahah thanks for your answer. that means, set the n64.configfile=AnyValue and then change the InputAutoCfg.ini like in the Wiki article. Great, I will try this out soon

BUT, its Apfelsaft and not Appfelsaft

[Substring]

@lackyluuk aPPfelsaft is more yummy yummy

@lackyluuk did succeed with this? What did you choose for the HK on an original n64 controller?
Also, after you add the n64.configfile, I suppose you'll need to config all other controllers as well (for n64) or do they work as before?
I'm just curious because someday I'll try to attach my original controllers as well, not before I replace their joysticks though

[lackyluuk]

@paradadf no unfortunately not. I am busy with my adapterbox (small box to connect the original nes, snes and 64 controllers). But it is done soon and then I try to figure everything out regarding the original controllers.

Keep you up to date
