Hi, just revisiting this topic since your most recent BizHawk release. Are there any plans on updating the internal GenesisPlusGX core to one that supports MD Plus / MSU-MD natively? This would be extremely valuable because it would allow for testing enhanced audio roms along with genesis/md six button controller mapping. For instance, a game like Super Street Fighter II with enhanced audio. The main benefit for end users would be avoiding retroarch for such purposes, as I (and I'm sure many here) feel that BizHawk is a much more intuitive experience. Thanks for your time, and I appreciate your work.
All available options for a Libretro core are in Libretro > Settings.
Libretro settings are not actually implemented (they're forced to all default internally)

That's simply impossible for a libretro core unless you manually remap the controls.
Is there a reason you're using libretro's gpgx instead of our own.
Specifically to bug test enhanced audio games for the gen/md. Namely MD+ and MSU-MD games. The BizHawk core doesn't play the enhanced audio, but the current gen plus GX core does. So if it could just let me map a 6 button gen pad, I'd be in heaven.
Also I love BizHawk for it's simple gui, and I avoid RetroArch whenever possible. Not a hater, just don't like the flavor.
Basically, I want to make LibRetro core's controls to be the same as the built in Genesis Plus GX control scheme. So for example, can I make the custom core read my controls like this?
"GPGX Genesis Controller": {
"P1 Up": "W",
"P1 Down": "S",
"P1 Left": "A",
"P1 Right": "D",
"P1 A": "Keypad1",
"P1 B": "Keypad2",
"P1 C": "Keypad3",
"P1 Start": "Space",
"P1 X": "Keypad4",
"P1 Y": "Keypad5",
"P1 Z": "Keypad6",
"P1 Mode": "Shift",
"P2 Lightgun Trigger": "WMouse L",
"P2 Lightgun Start": "Keypad5",
"P2 Mouse Left": "WMouse L",
"P2 Mouse Center": "WMouse M",
"P2 Mouse Right": "WMouse R",
"P2 Mouse Start": "Keypad5",
"Power": "P",
"Reset": "R"
Hi,
I used RetroArch core downloader to get the latest GenesisPlusGX core, and I successfully loaded up a MD+ rom in BizHawk. (I'm using the custom core to test md+ sound) Now I am struggling to tell the custom core that I am using a 6 button controller. I can set my controller in the config as a "retro pad", but I don't see an option to make the games use a six button pad. (Street Fighter 2 for example) Is there a way to do this in BizHawk. Thanks, and I apologize if this question has been covered.
