Supermodel Forum

Hi all, trying to get Jurassic Park The Lost World set up to use an Xbox controller. I'm actually running Supermodel within Batocera v40 which might complicate things a bit.

My first problem is that any edits to supermodel.ini appear to be lost as soon as I launch the game or if I restart batocera. The ini just resets the entire contents back to defaults. I've been looking in to the supermodel.ini.template file as some users have suggested thats how's it resetting to default - no joy solving that one yet.

Secondly, what should InputSystem be set to? SDL (default and supports game controllers apparently) or xInput (best for Xbox?)?

Thirdly, what would the input tags need to be in the supermodel.ini for an xbox controller? Buttons are working for example start game and fire but I cannot move the cross hairs at all. I see a red cross hairs top left of screen while in game and I can sort of move it with keyboard cursor keys although it always returns back to top left corner.

Thanks for any help offered

Supermodel doesn't reset the INI so the frontend must be doing it. In order to figure out the button mappings, I usually recommend running Supermodel directly on the command line with -config-inputs. E.g.:
Then carefully follow the on-screen instructions. You'll be able to press buttons on your game pad to configure each input.
