Is there an existing issue for this?

  • This is a bug in RetroArch frontend
  • I have searched the existing issues

Description

Launching a game directly from the command line will not autoload input remaps for a controller. Launching the app first through the GUI or command line then navigating through the menu to open the game loads remapped inputs as expected.

This is on MacOS through a zsh terminal.

Expected behavior

Automatically load the remap file regardless of how a game was launched.

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Launch RetroArch nightly and run a game.
  2. Create a custom mapping for the controller, save it and quit.
  3. Launch a game directly that would be affected by the custom mapping:
    open -b com.libretro.dist.RetroArch --args -L mame ~/path/to/rom.zip
  4. Check for remapped inputs.

Looks like it's related to #8972. not related.

Can you verify that this also happened in 1.19.1 stable, since you're on a nightly?

@hizzlekizzle trying it on stable gave me a hint on what could be going on. There's a new option in nightly "Sort remap by gamepad" which I had enabled. It looks like launching directly through the cli ignores that setting.

Testing it on stable didn't work either but it reminded me of the setting so I moved the remap file so it wasn't specific to my particular controller and it worked. Doing the same for nightly also worked leaving the sort remap option being the likely cause.

ah, I see. okay, that's still a problem, obviously, but much more localized, which is great. Thanks for the additional info!

@dvessel Will it be possible to update the issue title with your findings ? Thank you.

@dvessel dvessel changed the title Launching roms directly through CLI ignores input remapping. "Sort remap by gamepad" ignored when launching ROMs directly through CLI. Jan 3, 2025
