After messing around for months trying to figure out why my 2nd light
gun (TV version) wouldn't work correctly with mame on my cabinet I
finally found the problem. There was some sort of conflict with my
wireless mouse. I unplugged it and poof everything works great.

Strange that it worked fine with the troubleshooter games though..
Anyways I am now a happy camper!

Hey guys I am looking for a DVD player prg. for the computer that does
not go to a window when you double fire the Act Gun.  Anyone know of a
hopefuly free version that I can try out.  To top it off it would be
great if I can play DVD images stored on the drive, or else play from
multi drives.  Tring to get something together for my cab. that way I
can just have images stored and trigger them.

Thanks,
John

If anyone's interested,I'm selling an ACTLABS USB PC lightgun on E-
bay,got two of them but rarely use both.

The ROMS you have, have to match the version of the
emu your using other wise some will not come up... For
example if your roms are .88 you should use the .88
version of amulator, if you were to use the new
version for example .97 some if not most would not
come up because the ROMS need to be updated. hope that
helps.

I know this is not anything to do with light guns but you guys find
answers fast so here goes.

Has anyone else noticed that the newer versions of Mame32 (86+) do
not
pull up all of the roms now.  For example Asteroids Del. and Star
Castle.

Anyone know a easy fix other than using older versions?  Right now I
am looking into diff. front ends.

Thanks guys!!    :o)

I am using XP pro with SP2 installed all patches and everything up to
date.

It has to be something with MAME because if I run HOTD 3, HOTD 2 or
HOTD 1, Virtual Cop or Vitual Cop 2 using TheTroubleShooter reloading
works fine. Just not with mame... Also the 2nd button on the 2nd
player gun just fires also it doesn't reload. It would be fine if I
could get that to reload somehow I would care about shooting off
screen that much.

I just downloaded the win32 version of mame since I heard that it
worked correctly.

I found that I can now use the 2nd gun "BUT" I have to calibrate it so
it does not see the entire screen then shoot near the bottom right
corner to reload.

With the 1st player gun I can point at the floor or anywhere away from
the screen and it reloads just fine. It's pretty annoying that the 2nd
player Has to point at the corner of the screen. Is this something that
can be fixed? With the troubleshooter I can reload with the 2nd gun
just fine...

Thanks,
Jeremy Skeels

Are there any MAME emulators that work with the Act Labs GS Gun System?

Are there any MAME emulators that work with the Act Labs GS Gun System?

Maybe I am doing something wrong...

Using the current command line version of MAME

1. I Enabled Offscreen Reload.
2. I Emabled Dual Gun Support
3. I Start a game, Area 51, Maximum Force, Ect...
4. I Map the Games Button 1 for each player to Each Guns Trigger.
5. I Calibrate each gun.

I then start the game and I can shoot with both but if I aim the 2nd
gun away from the screen it doesn't reload it just fires a bullet.
Gun 1 workes fine..

Can you post a copy of your Mame.ini file and your game.ini file so I
can see where my glitch lies...

Thanks,
Jeremy

Note: That's Dual TV guns, not dual PC guns.  Dual PC guns might work in Windows 98, but for Win XP, you still need MAME Analog Plus.

 

It appears that the off-screen reload doesn't work for the Player 2 gun though, so I'll have to look into that.  Other games that don't require off-screen reloading (e.h. Police Trainer, Zero Point, etc.) should work fine though.

Awesome, I just got back from a trip and had the chance to try it
out. It works great!

I also downloaded the new version of mame as well, dual lightguns
work now but offscreen reload for gun #2 doesn't making it pretty
much usless still... Guess I can't have it all :-(

LOL, Thanks for the update to HOTD3!

If I have some time over the weekend, I'll see if I can do anything about the off-screen reload.  Now that I've had a look under MAME's hood, I can't resist a little more tinkering.  :-)

Awesome, I just got back from a trip and had the chance to try it
out. It works great!

I also downloaded the new version of mame as well, dual lightguns
work now but offscreen reload for gun #2 doesn't making it pretty
much usless still... Guess I can't have it all :-(

LOL, Thanks for the update to HOTD3!

Send me a zipped copy of your hod3pc.exe and I'll see what I can do.  Shouldn't be too complicated.

 

As for your other suggestions, I actually have started an experimental key remapping project. I plan to merge it into the Troubleshooter eventually.  I even thought about a "quit" key function.  Seems we think alike, you and I.

Subject: [pclightguns] HOTD3 Problem...

As you probaly guessed from my previous posts I run all my lightgun
games on a dedicated mame cabinet. The problem with that is I have to
move a 300+ pound monster out if I want to access the CD rom inside.
My solution is to install all the games via a wireless network and
then get a no cd crack from gamecopyworld.com so I don't need the cd
in the drive to play.

This has worked flawlessly for me up untill now. If I use the cracked
exe file for HOTD3 troubleshooter does not work. It works fine with
the original however if I have the CD in the drive.

Would it be hard to add support for the no cd version of this game?

Also one more suggestion, for dedicated cabinet gamers like myself.
Would it be hard to include a function to remap the games buttons to
ones that are available on the cabinet so I don't have to pull out
the keyboard to start the game or navigate the menues. Another great
feature would be the ability to set an exit game key (Excape) so no
matter what game you are playing you can exit out instantly with one
button.

Currently I use command line wrappers from
http://www.oscarcontrols.com/lazarus/ they let me terminate whatever
program I launch with them with the excape key. I like to completly
avoid a keyboard & mouse if possible on my cabinet.

I think you could open up a whole new audience for the troubleshooter
by integrating  some of the above features.

Currently I run MameWah as the menu program for my mame cabinet. It
allows you to set up different emulators or programs that can be
launched using the joysticks & buttons that are on your cabinet. When
the game/program exits it goes right back to the menu. It also hides
windows completly so it really looks like you are playing on an
arcade game not just a computer running an emulator.
