Ah yes they changed this combo for newer releases of this case. Thanks for highlighting this as it can be useful for new users. 🙂

@zing I can't see the relation between that problem and ours. That person had a problem mapping buttons, so they were able to read signals from the hardware, and the problem was button related, not joystick. In our case we haven't even reached the point where we could read anything from the directional joystick.

@fredisback81 said in MAME - Gamepad PS3 - how-to buttons config?:

Or what is the idea, that each ROM has to be configured on its own (e.g. within Retroarch / Op
tions / Input configuration ?)

You can customize the controls via the Retroarch menu as you mentioned, it is possible to save a configuration by core or by game, as you prefer.
Another option is to try this with Configuration overload:

ok so my Gamesir's work perfectly fine connected usb. So i guess i have to get 25ft usb cables LOL 😐 , yeah i have a huge theater room that i sit 16ft from the 65 in screen, so i'll have a little bit of slack in the cables.. If anyone from Recalbox team is reading this, please take this post in combo with the gitlab issue

https://gitlab.com/recalbox/recalbox/-/issues/1378

it's some BT issue and only with the Gamesirs, my old Gamesir 3GS and the new T4 pro.. same thing that happens with Mame in the gitlab issue happens with N64, if using the Gamesirs BT , once i start a game with N64 or MAME the controller still looks connected BT but doens't work i have to turn it off/on , on Mame that works, but on N64 it causes only 1 stick control on the Gamesir and my select and start buttons to work..

so while not ideal i would prefer to be able use BT instead of having a cable dragged across my floor 😉

@tinekastil2 no this option is not foreseen. You need to choose what's best for you... in games or in ES

@paradadf

That worked, but now emulation station is backwards, which I guess I can live with, but man that's annoying. Thanks for the help!

@flaker38 Thank you. Everything worked out. Did according to your advice. Now I play like a real Nintendo 64!

Ich würde noch einen separaten "Home-Button" einbauen.

Hello @jaume

you use old version recalbox. Please update your version, and your problem must be solved.

You need to define modem of ps3 controller.

Check this tutorial : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/PS3-controllers-drivers-(EN)

Edit recalbox.conf with winscp + notepad++ or via share network.

Try bluetooth, official or shanwan driver :

controllers.ps3.driver=shanwan controllers.bluetooth.ertm=1
