hi,
i've a strange problem: i wanted to start with my controller per core configs from scratch and deleted all files in config/inputs. All files are gone but i can still control the MiSter menu and the cores with all of my controllers. Does somebody know whats going on here? Is there some kind of default basic config for every controller?
Thanks
Did you do a cold reboot after?
A standard reboot is enough.
I just tried;
Code: Select all
mkdir /media/fat/temp&&mv /media/fat/config/inputs/* /media/fat/temp&&rebootand the only thing that worked was my joystick input.
I reversed with;
Code: Select all
mv /media/fat/temp/* /media/fat/config/inputs/&&rmdir /media/fat/temp&&rebootI has a you tube

Probably the gamecontrollerdb, which automatically provides default mappings for popular controllers (or clones which copy the VID/PID)
interesting. didn't know that. is there a way to deactivate it?
Don’t connect your DE10 to the internet?

Even if you disable gamecontrollerdb, mister will still 'automap' the buttons for any controller you connect. The controller db just provides saner defaults and provides a way to fix up quirks that would otherwise lead to strange mappings.
There is no way to have the controllers be completely non-functional, that would be a poor user experience
