Hi

I just start set up my gun (aim track) and everything work fine in MAME. Everything work fine also with my model 2 emulator for HOTD, but for some reason, it's doesn't keep the "in game" gun calibration...

I did all the calibration, with the light gun and the calibration in the game (F2 service switch), when I calibrate the gun it's work very well, but when I close the game and restart it, the gun need to be recalibrate?

Any idea????

Thank's

Are you opening and closing it through a front-end or using closemul?
They force it closed (like pressing Alt+F4).

Try running Model 2 by itself and calibrating, then pressing ESC to exit fullscreen, then File>Exit.

It doesn't work :-[

Do you know where it's supposed to save the calibration setting???

It's very bad because when it's calibrate, everything is perfect, but as soon as I quit and come back, I lost all the calibration...

Any other idea?

I had the same problem with Gunblade New york

It's saved in the NVDATA folder.  Try deleting the old one.  M2 will make a new one.

Not sure what would happen if you changed it to read-only while the emulator was open.
It might work...might cause a crash.

I doubt it makes any difference, but for guns, I'm still using version 0.9
(no real reason....if it ain't broke, don't fix it)

finally got it work yesterday...

I play with the raw input for mouse (change everything that was 0 for 1) and did the calibrating again... M2 create a NVDATA file with the correct calibration in it...  Put the raw input like it was before and everything work OK.

It work also for the gunblade NY

Thank,s for the help!

So your not getting the problem with M2 losing focus and reverting back to the windows desktop when shooting off screen to reload your gun?

I reload with the second button on my gun!
