![]() ![]() Assuming it's set up as this page, press the right shoulder or trigger button to resolve this. You may or may not experience an issue where, after loading a ROM, the controller is no longer responsive. If this is desired, edit the retroarch-joypads file described below and change the input_enable_hotkey_btn to: This would allow Select+Start, Select+B, and the rest of the usual Select-based hotkeys to be pressed in-game with no side effects. This would move the quit action to Logitech+Start, the RGUI menu to Logitech+X, and so on. You could configure this button as the RetroArch hotkey instead of Select. In XInput mode, the Logitech button in the middle of the controller can be used as another input button. You still need to configure X as Y and Y as X. Now A and B will work as labeled in EmulationStation, but will work like the SNES/RetroPad layout in emulators. If you truly wish to use the Logitech-labeled A and B buttons as A and B, edit /opt/retropie/configs/all/autoconf.cfg and set es_swap_a_b = 1 then reconfigure the controller in EmulationStation. Just ignore the controller labeling and press ABXY as if you were holding a SNES controller (A as B, B as A, X as Y, Y as X): Note the RetroPad ABXY pattern is the opposite of the ABXY pattern on the controller. ConfigurationĬonfiguration in EmulationStation is fairly straightforward. XInput mode does not require this, so just use XInput. ![]() This is added by editing /boot/cmdline.txt and appending usbhid.quirks=0x046d:0xc219:0x40 to the existing line (do not make a new line) then save the file and reboot. EmulationStation must be quit and restarted, or the Pi rebooted, so that EmulationStation realises a different controller type is plugged in and configures the system appropriately.Īs of RetroPie 3.8, using two controllers in DirectInput mode requires use of the "multi input" USB HID quirk. It is not possible to switch D/X mode in the middle of use. The L2/R2 triggers are digital buttons in this mode. These controllers actually appear as "Logitech Rumble Pad 2" or similar while in DirectInput mode. The L2/R2 triggers are analog axes in this mode.ĭirectInput is the older input mode, first introduced with DirectX in 1995. The controllers register with their name as "Logitech F310 Gamepad" or "Logitech F710 Gamepad". XInput mode is the newer mode introduced with the XBox 360 controller in 2005. These are controller programming APIs created by Microsoft. On the back of the controllers is a switch with D and X, standing for DirectInput and XInput mode. This is a great feature when playing games where a joystick offers more precision than a D-pad such as fighters, beat-em-ups, and shmups.Įarlier discontinued Logitech controllers such as the Logitech Dual Action, Logitech Rumble Pad, and Logitech Precision are also a good choice and have features similar to the F310 and F710. The controller comes with a 1.5m (5 ft) USB extension cable allowing relocation of the receiver for good signal strength if your Pi is hidden inside a busy TV cabinet.īoth controller models feature a Mode switch which swaps the D-pad and left analog stick in hardware when enabled. ![]() It uses a small USB dongle for wireless signal, the dongle can be stored inside the controller if you wish to unplug it. The F710 is wireless with a range of at least 6m (20ft). The F310 is wired with a 1.8m (6 ft) USB cable. They have a Sony DualShock style layout and good sturdy build quality. The Logitech Gamepad F310 and Logitech Gamepad F710 are a good choice of controller for RetroPie.
