Re: [pclightguns] Calibration Problem

Are you using TROUBLESHOOTER for HOTD?  If so just make sure both of the players are set to keyboard and you should be ready to go.  Mine work great on Mame 98 I have not tried any of the newer ones.  Jon (from troubleshooter) fixed the prob. with 2 guns with mame.  I am not sure what version his fix went into.  If you need a older copy of mame let me know I can email .98 to you.
 
You are using these on a TV also right?  With SVideo or composite?

Hi, I just got 2 TV Guns and pretty much have them working, although
getting 2 players in MAME to work seems impossible. But my question
right now is after I calibrate my guns they wont shoot on the bottom
portion of the screen. This happens in wndows (cant even get close to
shooting the taskbar) as well as games. In HOTD3 I cannot shoot the
zombies that are crawling on the ground on the lower portion of the
screen. The middle and upper portions work great, very accurate.
I found one other person on the BYOAC forum with this problem but no
solution.

I emails Act-Labs and this is what I got back:

"Can you calibrate with only Windows Desktop, and then to shoot the
icon on the bottom and to verify if the problem is a hardware setting
or a software issue. If the shooting is still no good on Windows
desktop, then it is a hardware problem, might have to change the TV
or video card, if the shooting on Windows Desktop is good, then the
setting is changed when you launch a game. To solve this issue,
recalibrate after you launch the game, and if the screen of the game
become much smaller, use the edge of the smaller screen to do the
calibration (that is to start and stop at the smaller screen, not the
TV screen --- you might need a sticker to mark the edge as the
calibration command will make the whole screen white) and this should
solve the problem."

Does anyone have any other advice because this did not work and I am
not about to go buy another TV or video card. I am using a brand new
Geforce 6600GT and a brand new 27 inch Emmerson TV.
