For a proper distribution in the buttons for the 6 button mode,
Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter games were taken as main example.
For MORTAL KOMBAT games overlay controller mapping is:
- X and A are set for High and Low Punch,
- Y and B are for Run and Block,
- Z and C are High and Low Kick
For STREET FIGHTER games overlay controller mapping is:
- X Y Z are light, medium and hard punch
- A B C are light, medium and hard kick
RETROARCH BUTTON INPUT CONFIGURATION
For the defaults 3 button configuration, recommended mapping should be
- Overlay A button should be Retroarch Y button
- Overlay B button should be Retroarch B button
- Overlay C button should be Retroarch A button
RECOMMENDED SETTINGS FOR THE 6 BUTTON MODE
- First set your controller in the main input settings, to match your game pad:
SETTINGS \ INPUT \ PORT 1 CONTROLS
- LOAD ANY 6 BUTTON GAME
Open the main menu
quick menu \ controls \ port 1
Step in the each button and press left/right to change options
set the buttons like this:
- A BUTTON = C
- B BUTTON = A
- X BUTTON = Z
- Y BUTTON = X
- L BUTTON = Y
- R BUTTON = B
- GO BACK (press backspace on the keyboard )
MANAGE REMAP FILES \ SAVE GAME REMAP FILES
(this way input mapping should be done for each 6 button game)
- OR
Store your 6 button roms in a dedicated folder
and instead choose: SAVE CONTENT DIRECTORY REMAP FILE
( THIS WAY YOU DONT HAVE TO DO THIS FOR EVERY GAME )
