From Jotego : RBF files are ready now. Just run the updater.

My favorite CPS1 game, a sham that it is in a licensing hell and won't be ever re-released.

I ran the update all script and still cannot do 3 players in C&D. Went into the configuration menu of the game to test the inputs and it doesn't recognize the 3rd player inputs. 3rd controller works fine with other games.

I manually removed the old JTCPS15 RBF file and watched the update re-download it and it still doesn't work. However, I am ignorant as to how the all the arcade files are associated with each other (MRA/RBF/MAME). What files are supposed to update and where can I see if they were? Or is there another updater I should be using?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Did you enable MAME and HBMAME GETTERS in update all script?
Edit:
The GETTERS have nothing to do with you problem, sorry.
The mras should come from Jotego, I checked mine and it is still dated from March 27, but the Alternatives are dated May 21.
I just checked on his Github and it seems that only the alternatives mras have been updated.

Thank you for looking into this. I apologize, but I am not following on how to resolve the issue. I am not sure if you're referring to the alternative versions of C&D where those MRA's have been updated? If so, I have tried several versions that are on the MiSter and none of them work with 3 players after the latest update_all run.

Or are you saying this is something that needs to be fixed on the Github side by Jotego?

First there is no need to apologize.
As far I can tell the main mra is 2 months old both on my system and Jotego Github; the alternative mras both on my system and Jotego Github have been updated; the rbf is also up to date. The update all script did its job and only Jotergo or blackwine can tell what the problem is.

Just an update to this. I commented on Jotego's Github thread regarding the 3-4 player issue with CPS15. I am not sure if any updates were made, but he suggested running the update again to fix. I ran the Update_All script last night and both the CPS1 and CPS15 files updated during the Jotego portion of the update. C&D now works perfectly for the 3rd player.
