      @Nick-Mous Under retroarch, is your controller set to Dualshock under Quick Menu > Options? You need it set to Dualshock I'm pretty sure to get rumble.

                The only thing I can think of now is if you have to have the controller in a certain mode. The controller has four modes, maybe try each one with retropie to see if it allows for rumble. Other than that, I actually am not sure.

                  i think You need to change Input --> Input User "x" Binds --> User "x" Device Type to DualShock as well. (menu options might be different now)

                  also you need to enable core option 'Enable Vibration' https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Core-Options/#setting-core-options

                    I had a cheap gamepad in which the vibration in psx games only worked when I changed the mode(from the gamepad) to x-input. If your gamepad has this option try it.

                    My English isn't at a good level.

                      @dankcushions I think that's it, but I'm gonna try first before calling a success. Also @windg and @brandflake11 , my controller is set to X-input.

                        @dankcushions said in Controller vibration not working (psx):

                        User "x" Device Type to DualShock

                        It worked! It's located in quick menu --> controls --> Port # --> Device type.
                        You need to set it to RetroPad w/ analog. You don't need anything else!
