    Hi everyone, first time poster…so be gentle.

    I recently got some cheap SNES USB clone pads from a Chinese seller on Ebay. They work great when in Emulation Station, however when I attempt to play a game the D pad is unresponsive. I believe this is because when I run the jstest command the X and Y values are shown as 32767 and -32767.

    The .cfg file it is using is the generically labeled ‘USBgamepad.cfg’

    Can anyone help me? I need to find out if anyone else is having this issue with these clone SNES USB pads.

    This is a strange one. This isn’t an N64 game you’re trying to play is it?

    Just keep in mind that emulators that don’t use retroarch controller configs will need a separate controller config. N64 being one of them.

    That was happening to me with same controller. Just go to config-> all-> retroarch.cfg and post this there.

    You have to look where.

    Example retroarch.cfg file for custom controls to override defaults:

    Note the values below are for one person’s controller, your values may differ. Make sure that these values are placed above the #includeconfig line

    input_player1_joypad_index = 0
    input_player1_b_btn = 2
    input_player1_a_btn = 1
    input_player1_y_btn = 3
    input_player1_x_btn = 0
    input_player1_l_btn = 4
    input_player1_r_btn = 5
    input_player1_start_btn = 9
    input_player1_select_btn = 8
    input_player2_joypad_index = 1
    input_player2_b_btn = 2
    input_player2_a_btn = 1
    input_player2_y_btn = 3
    input_player2_x_btn = 0
    input_player2_l_btn = 4
    input_player2_r_btn = 5
    input_player2_start_btn = 9
    input_player2_select_btn = 8

    # Axis for RetroArch D-Pad.
    # Needs to be either ‘+’ or ‘-‘ in the first character signaling either positive or negative direction of the axis, then the axis number.
    input_player1_up_axis = -1
    input_player1_down_axis = +1
    input_player1_left_axis = -0
    input_player1_right_axis = +0
    input_player2_up_axis = -1
    input_player2_down_axis = +1
    input_player2_left_axis = -0
    input_player2_right_axis = +0

    #Hotkeys- Hotkeys enable you to press a combination of buttons to do such things as exit emulators, save states,
    # and load states, as well as any other functionality in an emulator. (In the example below 8 is the select key
    # and 9 is the start key so when I hold down select and press start it will exit the emulator.)
    input_enable_hotkey_btn = 8
    input_exit_emulator_btn = 9
    input_save_state_btn = 5
    input_load_state_btn = 4
    input_menu_toggle_btn = 0
    input_state_slot_increase_axis = +0
    input_state_slot_decrease_axis = -0

    Then it will work.
