How to - Use the GPIO for Buttons instead of a Teensy
Re: How to - Use the GPIO for Buttons instead of a Teensy
I decided to use the GPIO instead of the Teensy.
1. Scrolling in Main screen work fine, but i can't select anything if i go into other menus.
2. Is fully compatible with the snes emulator but it won't work well with other, specially with the N64.
3. I can't use hotkeys in other emulators to exit.
Any suggestions?

Guide updated.
Added a little more detail.
also included information on enabling SSH as it is now disabled by default in Retropie V4.2

Hi, very cool help!! Thank you
I made it step by step but I could not start a test with
sudo ./retrogame
it says command unkown. Do you know something I made wrong? Or do you have an idea what else I can try?
I had already a joystick and keyboard enabled in the emulation.
I tried this too:

and

Best wishes

sounds like you might have the keys already mapped to a different combination.Mike-Zulu wrote: ↑Thu Apr 27, 2017 12:10 amHi, very cool help!! Thank you

Re: How to - Use the GPIO for Buttons instead of a Teensy
Hello everyone I am currently building a GBZ and I already spent quite a bit of money on this build and I just found out that I should use a teensy for the button controls. I really don't want to spend any more money but I will if this is absolutely necessary. Therefore, my question is what are the exact downfalls of soldering directly to the GPIO pins on the pi0? Will doing this create any significant problems when playing games or effect the responsiveness of the buttons? Thanks for the help.
Re: How to - Use the GPIO for Buttons instead of a Teensy
I followed the guide exactly. I have input in my Retropie menu, but not in emulators. Any pointers?

Re: How to - Use the GPIO for Buttons instead of a Teensy
I had a similar issue, it worked at first. Then the next time I turned it on some buttons would work in the emulators, some would not. I just remapped the controls in emulation station, and then everything started working again. Not sure why...maybe try that?
