8 Players Remote Play Together?

[SP4RT4N3R]

Is it possible to play this game via Steam Remote Play Together with 7 other people?

how come all of my friends are controlling the mouse same time as me? we enabled only 1 control too

I had the same difficulty setting this up with a friend too, but I was able to fix it if you keep in mind of local multiplayer online. Controlling all players with keyboards wont work, so controllers are needed at best. Was able to fix and play with this help: https://steamcommunity.com/app/880940/discussions/0/1742226629869609303/

Yeah, because your PC has only One Keyboard and mouse :D Imagine it like they were in your room. If you want more people, tell them to bring their controllers.

But there is another problem. Pummel party doesn't support playing on Keyboard AND controllers. Like other games do...

Yesterday i tried to invite 4th person (5th with me) in RPT, and he came to the room, but can't play with us. We tried to swap players and 4th always enter the room, but gamepad wasn't active :( little bit sad about it, but, maybe later? I read, that "2-4 players, BUT, RPT can support more"

My friends and I tried and it doesnt work yet. I hope developer test it and make it possible.

Sadly, this seems to come from the "XINPUT".

If we enable Xinput, we can use Steam controllers and Remote play together, but only up to 4 players.

If we disable Xinput, we can use 8 generic/xbox 360 controllers but cannot play with the Steam controller nor remote play together (both uses Steam Input).

Would it be an option to enable partially XInput? Getting 4 controllers as Steam controllers or Remote play + 4 that are non steam-controllers? That would enable to play with up to 4 remote players if the local players have non-steam controllers.

I had the same issue. One idea I had is to have two people with the game connect via online multiplayer and each run Remote Play Together with 4 people connected. Anyone know if that would work to get an 8 player Remote Play Together working?

I thought the same but I couldnt try it. I hope somebody can prove it

Use Parsec Streaming instead. It solves most of these problems

Does Parsec allow more than 4 Xinput devices?

I can confirm this approach works. A bit unfortunate you have to have two people who own the game.

We tried Parsec and ran into issues. One person couldn’t install it (kept getting errors) and the other experienced bad lag. Steam Remote Play worked fine.
