    • RE: Logitech F310 USB controller does not work in games (but works in Recalbox menu)

      TL;DR

      • in "D" mode, the F310 does nothing, anywhere, ever. In "X" mode, it works in ES, but not in any games
      • an Xbox 360 controller works, but only after making a small adjustment in recalbox.conf

      The longer story:

      So.......long story: no, when the F310 is in Direct mode, I can not navigate use it at all. It simply doesn't get detected. Even when I use the virtual gamepad or another controller (I got an Xbox 360 controller today), the F310 just doesn't get detected in any way when it's set to "D". It's like it's off.

      If I set the F310 to "X", it does get detected in ES.

      So I noticed that with the Xbox controller, no button presses get detected within any games either....UNTIL I press the left shoulder button. That's like "activating" it, and then it all works. This same method doesn't work for the F310 though.

      Then I checked this thread and it suggests to edit recalbox.conf. I disabled the PS3 one and enabled the Xbox one, and that makes the Xbox controller work perfectly. Still no change in the F310 though.

      I guess I will just accept that my F310 is broken (or incompatible with Recalbox) and will just stick to the Xbox 360 one, but if anyone has any further ideas, please let me know.

      Thanks for your help and pointers, it's really appreciated a lot.

      @Substring Thanks for guiding me, appreciate the help.

      However, I did see that post and the solution described in there (switching from X to D) didn't work for me, which is why I mentioned that in my original post. I should have included that I did see that post I guess! 😉

      Remapping the pad doesn't work, because when its in direct mode, nothing happens at all. It simply doesn't recognize any buttons I press.

      Not sure what you mean about the Virtual Gamepad but I'll look into that.

      Thanks again!

    • Logitech F310 USB controller does not work in games (but works in Recalbox menu)

      Hi everyone,

      I have a new Pi with Recalbox 4.0.0 and when my Logitech F310 is plugged in, I can use it to control the main Recalbox menus and everything. When I configure the controller, I do have some issues with the L2/R2 buttons (same as reported here: https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/2034/logitech-f310-l2-and-r2-button-configuration-problems) but I can still use it without any problems.

      However, the controller doesn't do anything at all when I'm in a game. I tried many games, many systems (GB, GBA, NES, SNES, MAME), but I can't get any game to start, no response when I press any button on the F310. The only way to get out of it again is to hit ESC on my keyboard.

      I did try switching from X to D on the back, but when it's on D, it doesn't respond at all anymore, not even in the Recalbox menu. It only works when it's set to X the moment I boot up and don't change it anymore.

      I hate asking this (because I have the feeling I'm missing something very simple, and as a newbie I'm scared that someone will point me to a post/article where this exact issue is explained), but any help would be appreciated.

      I'm also considering to just get a second hand Xbox 360 controller, since that seems to work out of the box for everyone, but if I can get my F310 to work, I won't try that.

      Thanks everyone! 🙂
