psx multitap retroarch 4 players
-
I'm in the same boat. I haven't even been able to get the "beta" even to work. Could it be the raspberry pi 3 that's the problem?
-
@Bast525 Exactly the same issue here.
-
as explained in the Wiki I use a game-options file to enable the multitap 1 and 2 for specific multiplayer games and set the core option multitap 1 and 2 parameters to "Auto". Anyone knows where this game-options file is saved? it says "Core options file created successfully" but I cant locate it anywhere...
-
@jeffrye23 I don't think so as it works for me using a Pi3 and the "Beta" way of doing
-
@FAB2TB ok here they are: opt/retropie/configs/all/SYSTEMNAME DIR...I cant explain why there is other system parameters saved in this file! PCSX for eg contain CAP32, fba and so on...but Multitaps are correctly here and enable and shall overides my core config where they are seted as "auto":
cap32_autorun = "enabled"
cap32_Model = "6128"
cap32_Ram = "128"

@alexis-puska any idea to help us as you are the master of this library! ...cant make it works with the newly merged function (only your beta library is working for me)
-
Hi guys,
I also have the same problem with the merged function. The Multitap gets recognized, so I can see player 3 and 4.
But the controls of player 3/4 seem to not work.Awesome work btw, I have been waiting for the psx multitap function for nearly 2 years :-) thanks a lot!
-
Hi everyone,
I will make some test tomorrow. When i have finished the development it's work fine. If i found a problem i'll try to fix it, and fix the rumble support, add a properties to disabled rumble by code.
Alexis-puska -
@alexis-puska thanks! I'm really looking forward to it.
-
@alexis-puska thx a lot Alexis your library libretroMultitap.so is working fine but with the merged version everybody have the same pb...nice work anyway :)

Can someone check for me something?
After I read the code process that Kekun did for the Multitap, I found that this could be resolved if you change all controllers type from "default" to "standard" .. to activate the multitap feature.I will check and going to confirm if my predicting for the issue is true, you can check also the line code in the Repo too: https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/commit/15504ca8fb3d4dbcb1822f2aafb4797e88f88175
436:+ // else 'default' case, do nothing -
Hi every one, I have updated pcxs-rearmed from source on my retropie installation, i have the last version of the code from github and retropie repository. I have made some test with my raspberry pi 3, I don't reproduce the problem, but i don't have controller with rumble motor (PS3 controller). i ask to my friend to take once and re-test. If someone is located near Montpellier (france) with a PS3 controller, tell me here. You can help !
-
i have made test with 3 players and the player 3 not responding... something is broken. i take a look in the code.
-
@alexis-puska Glad that you were testing the issue, I was also investigating regard the issue itself.
It looks like that the controller are actually become "none" by default .. I'm trying to resolving it without enhance coding to check either it is resolvable or required re-coding for the controller assignment. -
I just test on my pi my last commit, and the multitap work perfectly with analog pad. I take a look inside the code if i have time in the next day between my last commit and the last version. If you look on my fork, my last commit works ! you can compile it and use the library. i don't know if in the next week i have time to look this.

@alexis-puska @MegamanHxH I found something which can help I think:
When I load the game with 4 USB gamepads connected first they are detected but cant control anything, then I simply enter in the Retroarch interface then in "quick menu" / "controls" I switch User 3 and 4 Device type from "Retropad" to "Retropad w/ Analog" and immediatly switch them back to "Retropad" without exiting and then resume to the game and now it works fully with all four players!...something is not loaded initially it seems.
But of course once I quit the emulator and reload the game I need to do everything I said once again to make it work even if I saved the game remap file...
All Pad type are setted to "default" , Multitap 1: enabled, Multitap 2: disabled in Options menu.
Note: Changing all Pad type from "default" to "standard" did not solved the problem. -
@FAB2TB
Found the bug. I have some visit now, i commit the fix after !Edit :
https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/pull/85Apparently merged !
-
It works!! Thanks so much for your help!

I installed retropie 4.1 and with the update script to update pcsx_rearmed with source compilation, it's get retropie source from notaz repository and not with libretro repository. Note that the fix was made on libretro repository.
Did retropie use in the future the notaz version or the libretro version ?

both! the libretro one is the default. in 4.1 it should be under main packages > lr-pcsx-rearmed (i will double-check later!)
thanks a lot for the fix! :D
