How to configure dpad on controller

[retromage krisiun]

Hi , i`m new her. 

If you could be so nice to guide me to how mapping the direcrional pads on my joystick pad (usb generic controller, manually wired) 

you see, i have no problem assigning the function buttons in launchbox/bigbox.  but the directional buttons is not possible to manually assign? . 

i have done this in the emulators, but in the front end program , the left is down and the right is up . any hints to where if possible i can change this?

You haven't provided any details on the controller at all but LB has auto-detected and assigned all controllers I have used with it, Xbox360, Hori Fight Commander, Logitech F710 and even my flight stick and I can control LB/BB with everyone perfectly fine.

I havent provided any detalis because this is not a regular gamepad.   it is a chip board with manual wiring to every single buttons. i use this in an arcade cabinet i have built .  the arcade stick (dpad)  is preconfigured in lb to read only fixed assigment.   the problem is that i have inserted the stick a quarter to much clockwise.  so when i move the stick to right, it registers as "up". therefore i need to know if there is any way to manually overwrite the dpad on a controller in such a way that i can reassign  the right button to be read as "up", and so forward  , i have already done this in every emulators i use in LB/BB , but it does not seem possible in the LB/BB itself

Rewire your joystick so the directions are correct.

i see. i was hoping there was an easier way , like in emulators.  but thanks anyway

You could probably get around it by disabling the "gamepad" in BB and then mapping the joystick to keyboard functions using software like Xpadder, AntiMicor or Controller Companion.
