@maskedsquirrels said in Multitap works for some games but not for others, Secret of Mana, Looney Tunes B-Ball:

Ok back to the original problem. The SOM version I have is Secret of Mana (USA) [En by FuSoYa v1.0] (Variable Width Font Edition).sfc according to the file name.

It still links player 2 and 3 together.

It is likely that this hack change something in the headers of the rom, resulting in snes9x not recognizing the rom and not applying the right settings to enable multitap. You should try with an official usa or pal rom to make sure.

@dankcushions said in FPS dips in secret of Mana on specific screens. What is causing this?:

@Aksen https://github.com/dborth/snes9xgx/issues/66

if this is the same slowdown your experiencing, it's as per the original game.

ah, okay. I'm not surprised the original game had slowdowns in areas with lots of sprites, but I'm also getting it (along with crackly audio) in the fullscreen menus. If that's in the original game, then my emulation is running fine and I'm happy, but the slowdown in the menus may be a different issue:

I have the original cart on hand but my snes is packed up somewhere, or else I'd check for myself :-/
