Setting up Keyboard Controllers

Horace And The Spider edited this page Jan 20, 2018 · 3 revisions

From Amiberry 2.5 onwards, support is provided for universal gamepad / controller mapping.

There are two options available for this purpose:

  • A standard USB or Bluetooth connected device, automatically detected by the host system
  • Remapping of keyboard controls (or a keyboard controller device, such as Ultimarc's I-PAC devices) to act as a controller.

To use a regular controller as a joystick device, follow the details on the Setting up Input Controllers page.

Selecting a Keyboard Control Device

Via Input Panel - TBC

Customising the Keyboard Control Device

Customing the RetroArch.cfg - TBC

Setting the RetroArch keyboard input

From the Amiberry GUI you should navigate to the Paths panel. From here you will need to select the location where your file(s) have been stored.

For RetroPie, you should select /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig/

Once selected, click the 'Rescan Paths' button shown at the bottom of the panel.
