Have you used EmulationStation to configure the controller?

I've been wracking my brain. I can't think of a cause. Can you post your attract mode cfg file? (or at least the button assignment part of it?)

i have gotten some replies for the pie group i am on and they all say its something with reys 128 gb image that i need to change something here is what they told me to do but i dont know how to get into the pie and change this stuff !

here is what they told me to do :
I don't know my problem was the same as yours but but up ad down joystick didn't work either. Under /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig edit dragonRiseInc.GenericUSBJoystick.cfg edit our input_down_axis and input_up_axis to whatever your pi sees it. My emulators cfg was 1 and under /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig was 3 so i simply changed it and it worked. i don't know if its the same for you.

I can't verify the solution posted. It looks like it's telling you to edit the configurations of Retroarch. If your emulators are working correctly, then that solution won't help you. Can you post the attract.cfg file?

To find it exit attract mode to the command line

type:

sudo pico /home/pi/.attract/attract.cfg

Mine looks like this (some irrelevant stuff removed for clarity):

Code: [Select]
input_map
        back                 Escape
        up                   Up
        up                   Joy0 Up
        down                 Down
        down                 Joy0 Down
        left                 Left
        left                 Joy0 Left
        right                Right
        right                Joy0 Right
        select               Return
        select               LControl
        select               Joy0 Button1

You should have an entry for down (keyboard down) and down (joystick down)
