Select Button quitting games
I just completed building my Circuit Sword Lite from Kite and got things up and running. The software (emulationstation) asked me to register the buttons so I did. However when I went to play a game and attempted to bring up the Retroarch Quick menu (generally it's select and X(Nintendo) or Triangle(Playstation)) the game quit back to the menu. I've tried it with other games, other systems, and re-configuring the input.
Is this hard coded into the Sword Lite? I ask because I also have a Circuit Shield and it works just fine like any Retropie. I've looked over Kite's wiki and FAQ and nothing talks about where/how controls are setup.
Hi, when it asks you in the input configuration to "press hotkey button" you must SKIP this by HOLDING down any button for 3s or so. After clicking OK it will warn you it will default to the default, select OK ('select' is the default)
I just reconfigured the hotkey button like you posted. However that did not solve the issue. Pressing select while in a game immediately quits to the menu.
I've used lr-Gambatte(Metroid II), lr-gpsp(dragonball Adventures), lr-picodrive(Sonic the Hedgehog) all with the same issue. What GPIO pin are controls (specifically select/esc)mapped to for the zero?
They're not mapped to GPIO pins. There is software (cs-hud) that manages it, and it appears as a keyboard. SELECT == ESC and START == ENTER. Tested it out on mine and works correctly, sometimes i had to release and press SELECT + X a couple times but eventually it popped up (no exiting). Maybe a bit extreme but re-image, and make sure to SKIP the hot key configuring step on the first boot?
That worked. It took a while to get the wifi setup again but reflashing the card worked. Thanks!
