Retroarch noob mistake

[djwar]

I am trying to set up light gun games to work with the controller on the sega master system, games like, laser ghost, in which I didn't succeed.

And by mistake the controller on Retroarch was disabled and cannot select anything in RA UI.... is there a way to enable it again, maybe from the root folder ?

so I don't have to uninstall and install it back again.

I sure the issue can be corrected in the retroarch.cfg file, but Im still not sure which line needs to be changed

Can you backup/move retroarch.cfg (say rename it retroarch.cfg.old) and then start RA?  I would think that'd at least get you back in (assuming it recreates the original .cfg) then you could compare the 2 files.

yeah I would also assume the quick and easy way would be to delete/rename the old config and then start up RA, it should refresh with a new one.

[djwar]

yes, that worked, deleting the config file, will create a new one, all personal configuration is lost though

 

thank you

Yup.  make a copy of that one because odds are you'll have to do the same thing again.  I had to save a core override, and save a new config for each core I was setting up.  Then at the end I took my copy of the config and replaced the messed up config with it so that when you started retroarch again on its own, it was a clean setup without anything leftover from the cores.
