Can't "hold" a button with psx roms
-
@JGHunter also look for psx eboots instead of iso img and bin. They work without any issues
-
PBP files do work the best it seems for multi-disk games. However, i've had no issues with bin/cue files. I do recommend checking to see if it's just a bad rom as ed suggested. Try a US version.
Also what emulator are you using? I highly recommend pcsx-rearmed.

i've had no issues with bin/cue files.
Yeah, bin/cue files are a 1:1 format to the actual discs. You'll potentially run into issues with iso, as many of the games have a disc structure that isn't supported in the iso standard. The pbp files are generally more conveniant when you can find or create them, but that convenience comes at the minor cost of load speed. All-in-all, bin/cue and pbp are both solid choices.

Which emulator are you using? Have you tried a different game?
And what do you mean with:
"and games which require me to hold a button down are not recognising this,"
You need to give us more details.

rearmed is the only one available to that game or some reason. I also have SPCH1001 (isn't it a different emu?)
I'll try a US version and get back to you.
I haven't found a psx game where holding a button has its own function, most are beat em ups or something where there is no "hold" function. If someone knows a game where holding a button does something different from pressing, I will give it a try and get back to you.
It seems bin/cue for US and .img for Europe are the only options available, both of which I tried and have described :(

@JGHunter are you using pcsx rearmed or lr-pcsx-rearmed??
-
@JGHunter I think you're using a non Libretro emu which means you need to config the controller separately, the config for the libretro emu's wont work. Download lr-pcsx-rearmed and see how that one works out.

You could try metal gear solid where the triangle button is first person view.
Good luck

@PetroRie I have lr-pcsx-rearmed, and the only one available for THPS 2 on the menu.

I am having this same problem. Making it impossible to play some games. Did you ever find a resolution?
