Decide the number of instances you wish to launch and assign your gamepads (max 4 per instance) accordingly.

Once the custom game has been setup, press SELECT + X on the first player's gamepad or F2 to connect your instances, alternatively you can alt-tab to the instance you wish to connect and press SHIFT+TAB. This should automatically connect your instances to the custom match lobby.
