enurweb Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 So I notice that NeoGeo has a "D-pad" that moves in eight directions and thought that would be easy to setup with my Xbox One controllers. Using the built in RetroArch core FB Alpha 2012 NeoGeo. That was more tricky than expected due to that there is no option in the Quick menu - controlls to setup the analog stick directions. It only allows me to setup the Xbox One D-pad and of course I can choose to enable the left analog stick also but still it only moves in four directions instead of eight. Missing out on shooting for example diagonally. Anybody with any tips and pointers on how to fix that issue would be amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I think the vast majority of people either use the digital pad or an arcade stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I just tried Shock Troopers with that core and I can shoot diagonally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enurweb Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 I have been testing mostly with Metal Slug and my Xbox One controller. It doesnt let me configure all eight angles of the left stick, just up, down, left and right. Sure I have enabled the left analog stick but it doesnt help. May I ask what controller and setup you are running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I use an 8Bitdo SN30 Pro in Xinput mode. Have you tried any of the later FBA cores? Other FBA cores in RetroArch may have different options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enurweb Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 I haven't tried other cores yet. But playing Shock Troopers I see that the eight way control is actually working. But in Metal Slug only four way shooting. Is it possible that Metal Slug doesn't have eight way aiming when shooting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Yeah, I think Metal Slug you can't shoot diagonally actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
