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

Don't thanks me. I have past 2 hours to test and read the code. I don't know how some value is pasted to 0 in place of "port". Some commit was made in the project and a big works of refactoring in the dynarec (dynamique recompilation) I don't understand one line of this part. I hope that in future this features (multitap) don't break again ^^, i will work in my bomberman project :p.

You're welcome, i made this to play with my girlfriend and my friend, CTR battle, CTR versus, speed freacks, micromachine V8 ^^ I hope that your children is happy.

Go refactoring my code on bomberman, some lot of works for a memory stack overflow :/, some level to add, level of IA to develop.

@alexis-puska @dankcushions Thanks for working on this Alexis, I run Retropie 4.1 and updated from source right now but it doesn't solved the problem, maybe it did not update from the right source...do I have to download it from somewhere else or from the retropie setup script is ok ?

alexis-puska

I have made a fresh install of retropie 4.1 and the setup script get script from notaz repository. Try to change the repository to get source from libretro github repository. I have made the link in my previous post.

FAB2TB

@alexis-puska I dont know how to do that do you know how to change it?

it isn't for me - see https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/libretrocores/lr-pcsx-rearmed.sh#L22

you just need to make sure you're in manage packages > manage main packages > lr-pcsx_rearmed

eg:

i think you must be looking in the 'optional' menu (which is where notaz standalone version is)

Bast525

Hmm... Still not working for me in Retropie 4.1 on a Pi 3 B. I uninstalled lr-pcsx-rearmed, updated the update script, and tried reinstalling from both binary and source. Still player 3 and 4 do not respond.

I did use the trick listed above, where I go into Quick Menu - Controls and set players 3 and 4 pad types to None, then back to Retropad, and that works.

FAB2TB

@dankcushions there is no "lr-pcsx_rearmed" in the optional packages menu only "pcsx_rearmed" so the update comes from the supposed right place and it does not work without doing the trick I explained above

FAB2TB

@Bast525 yes either I cant get the fixed version or if the update comes from the right place the bug fix did not solve this problem

that's because i didn't say the 'optional packages' menu, i said the 'main packages' menu :)

manage packages > manage main packages > lr-pcsx_rearmed

lr-pcsx_rearmed is main, pcsx_rearmed is optional.

FAB2TB

OK finally it is working, the only thing is the "default" case is not included in the code here:
https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/commit/17b93a2844f026f8f0d779e9bae698631c746f8a so just set everything to "standard" type and let's have some fun! Thanks a lot Alexis et Big Up de Thonon-les-Bains :)

alexis-puska

ha un français sur le forum, j'espère que tout re-fonctionne comme avant, j'ai trouvé l'auteur du pépin sur les commit git, je lui en parlerais :p.

FAB2TB

@alexis-puska oui c'est nickel maintenant, juste qu'il faut sélectionner "standard" type car "default" ne fonctionne pas donc pas très intuitif pour celui qui n'est pas au courant...en tout cas ça fait bien plaisir de rejouer à tous ces multiplayers tellement fun...à plus et merci encore.

@dankcushions
Maybe add to wiki to set standard or analog insteed of default.

@dankcushions and @MegamanHxH ... please is it possible to have some help ?

I have the last Retropie installation with all the last update and lr-pcsx-rearmed updates from the last source code.
I read all the topic and the Wiki and i configure all fine :

/opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg : ADD game specific options !

rewind_enable = "false"
input_overlay_enable = "true"
input_overlay = "/opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/overlays/borders/Sony-PlayStation.cfg"
video_smooth = "true"
video_shader_enable = "false"
game_specific_options = "true"

/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg : all is fine configured
/opt/retropie/configs/psx/pcsx/cfg/SCES_02834-SCES02834.cfg : all is fine configured

but i can't find these configuration anywhere :(

frameskip = "0"
region = "PAL"
pad1type = "default"
pad2type = "default"
pad3type = "default"
pad4type = "default"
pad5type = "default"
pad6type = "default"
pad7type = "default"
pad8type = "default"
multitap1 = "auto"
multitap2 = "auto"
drc = "enabled"
neon_interlace_enable = "disabled"
neon_enhancement_enable = "enabled"
neon_enhancement_no_main = "enabled"
duping_enable = "on"
spu_reverb = "on"
spu_interpolation = "simple"
pe2_fix = "disabled"
inuyasha_fix = "disabled"

I can only configure them in Retroarch on my TV to have :

pad1type = "standard"
pad2type = "standard"
pad3type = "standard"
pad4type = "standard"
pad5type = "standard"
pad6type = "standard"
pad7type = "standard"
pad8type = "standard"
multitap1 = "enable"
multitap2 = "enable"

Finally i search on : /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/config/PCSX-ReARMed

Found : Crash Team Racing (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It,Nl) (EDC) [LC2 Crack by Paradox]

But nothing save too, only 11 lines in each config file :

video_scale_integer = "true"
menu_show_advanced_settings = "true"
savestate_thumbnail_enable = "true"
show_hidden_files = "true"
custom_viewport_width = "1280"
custom_viewport_height = "960"
aspect_ratio_index = "22"
video_refresh_rate = "60.000000"
input_overlay_opacity = "1.000000"

No more ...
I try to had the lines by hand but it doesn't works :(

Have i forgot something ???
Or maybe you must fix the config per game function ???

If nobody do it, we can't make a CFG file by game to help players.
I really want to have a solution to have some games with end without the multitape.

Thanks
