[Picade] SCAN_CODE being ignored(Solved with nomap option) #47
Comments
I noticed that there is also /sd/arcade.cfg too. I just edited that to event1 and saved it, then run the launCharc command line to run the elf. The /sd/arcade.cfg gets set back to event0. Odd. |
If I remove the keyboard and ssh in after a clean restart, the game refuses to start and says this in the log
With this situation, I run evtest and see this:
So it looks like there is an input device and it is responding. |
Hi @pilcherd, Thanks for trying McAirpos and reaching out! Sorry that it is not working for you right away. I believe you have 3 options that might solve your problem here on a default automatic curl installation, since Picade is registered as EV_KEY type keyboard controller. Either: [Picade] Button mapping(working with manual /sd/arcade.cfg edit and nomap option) I hope any of these works for you! Br, |
Hi Vegard, In my post above I had actually removed the USB keyboard and got a different error. Do you know why that might occur? Thanks |
I worked it out. The nomap command line option is needed (per the instructions) to make the launCharc program use the file in /sd. So I edit the emulation station configuration launch command in here: sudo vi /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg And added the nomap option to the launCharc line before the rom. And now it runs from the menu. Thanks! |
Glad to hear! Happy retro games making and playing! |
Hi
I have the latest RetroPie, and installed McAirpos using the automatic retropie curl command. It is installed and does run an ELF MakeCode game, however I am having issues with keyboard and sound.
When my USB keyboard is plugged in to the Picade, I have two input events.
/dev/input/event0 - USB
/dev/input/event1 - Picade keyboard
I am trying to run McAirpos with the keyboard plugged in, and so I copied the Picade example and edited it to use event1, but the McAirpos log always shows it trying to use event0:
This is my ~/McAirpos/McAirpos/Makecode/sd/arcade.cfg file:
Is there a reason the SCAN_CODES line is being ignored?
Many thanks, Dave
