@chaoseffect said in rakugaki showtime(psx) is for 4 players?:

@kounabi22 This game functions correctly in lr-duckstation with the multitap set to "Port 1 only."

did not know about duckstation...gona check it.

thanks

@nes yes, with the rest of the bin/(appropriately re-named)cue or chd files

@sugo98 I ran into this same issue. After 3 hours of head-banging, I managed to solve this, thanks to your post that gave me a hint: 5th joystick.

For some reason, this game wants the Slot 2 to be plugged in. So it actually requires 5 players, the 5th one being in fact the Player 2. So you just need to tell RetroArch that Port 5 is controlled by the same gamepad as Port 4. Make sure this 5th player is set to a PlayStation controller or analog pad and it works.

This seems to be the same behaviour among all KCET football games. And maybe Track 'n field games too?

I hope it'll help you.

@swappo91 as @robmcc83 pointed out, i think your issue is because you are enabling multitap 2. Try leaving it disabled.

@catastroph3 could be a couple issues. Are you using wireless 360 controllers? If so the wireless receiver is actually detected as 4 controllers so your other controller is probably detected as controller 5. You can use joystick-selection to change which controllers are used as what in retroarch systems. Is your psx emulator, lr-pcsx-rearmed?
If so if you go into the retroarch gui by pressing select & x. Then go into quick menu then options. Now enable the multitap. Plus you might have to change each controller between standard and analog in there.

I'm having the same kind of issue, except I still haven't found a way to figure it out ... Posted it as an original topic here, but no one came to my rescue :(
