@substring I've tried the "nano ~/recalbox.conf" command and it did nothing. I am more than likely very confused. What is the purpose of adding "n64.configfile=dummy" in recalbox.conf and how exactly do I do this step by step.

@substring Can you explain this further so I understand? Very new to this whole thing.

@Substring

Okay so I just recently installed Recalbox 4.0.1 on my Raspberry Pi 3 and purchased the same controller as @Zelaf. I'm having trouble configuring it to work. I logged into root access, used the js command, which listed the Retorlink controller as something to the effect of, "Joystick (Generic Joystick .....)" I then used the "nano /usr/share/mupen64plus/InputAutoCfg.ini" command to edit the InputAutoCfg.Ini file but noticed my controller name (Joystick (Generic Joystick....) in the list with the exact same button configuration as that in the Github forum. Do I need type a whole new configuration or can I simply edit the configuration that matches my controller to read "Retrolink N64 controller" or something to that effect? Also, how do I add n64.configfile=dummy in recalbox.conf? Thanks for the help. Really excited about playing old N64 games.

@abunille

Thanks for your help. Yes that is the controller I have.

I'll take a look at the post later. From a glance that looks like exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you!

Re: N64 Controller

Hey guys! Im new to this forum. I was using Retropi for awhile and thought I would try Recalbox. I have to say it appears to be more user friendly but I am having a really difficult time figuring out how to get my new Retrolink USB N64 controller working with the N64 games I have loaded on my USB flash drive connected to my Raspberry Pi 3. Im usining Recalbox OS version 4.0.1. Do I have to use the method in the wiki article for Recalbox 3.3? I would like to use the button combination Z + Start to exit the game amd return to the menu and another button combination for save and load (suggestions?) How do I accomplish all of this?
