I have installed this application in the folders needed, but am not able to do an off screen reload.  When i minimize the emulator, I can see the icon of the game in the taskbar.  Am I missing something?  I'm using an Aimtrak...

Can't wait for the 2 player hack!   :applaud:

Hi,

So long as you downloaded it as a ZIP (from the File>Download selection on the page from google) and extracted it into the main folder. Then all the scripts and logo's should have gone into the right places on their own.

If the Icon show's the correct game when you've launched the emulator then it should have worked. Does it remove the min,max,close buttons around the screen? if so then it has done it's job.

I don't know if the reload function only worked when it is fullscreen? can anyone confirm this with a lightgun? I had some people in the forum test this for me as I don't have one or two of them yet. Oh perhaps check your aimtrak settings? isn't there an off screen reload funtion in their software? like a Right Click or something?

I'm considering a better file hosting. Google drive is good, but alot of people seem to miss the download button to get the whole zip as they think it's just files?

We've hijacked RamjetR's thread, but it's way to late to start a new one.  All the info is here.  :lol

Didn't see anyone else working on a logo for Troubleshooter 2 and felt like giving it a try.
The site I got the gun from says everything is public domain (even though it's user uploaded).
This is a first draft.  I should probably do something different with the 2.

Thoughts?

EDIT: added another version
double edit....slightly tweaked 2nd one to center things better

I really like the second one. 

Maybe a faux chrome effect on the text to make it look cheesier, but I'd say that's perfect. 

Once I release this thing I'll start a new thread.  We've ruined this one.  ;)

Except for those last two games it's mostly cleanup work at this point.  The user configuration menu is still non-existant, but it's gotten simplier as we've went on, so it was best to wait until last. 

I'm honestly not sure if we'll have a release this weekend or not.  I keep getting burnt out working on this, but I can't stand it when I've got an unfinished puzzle lying around, so I keep coming back to it. 

I"m going to go ahead and fix the addresses for vcop 2 before I forget about it, but I think that's it for today. 
BadMouth:
It's a bit harder to read with the 90's style fake chrome.
The one in the first post is a slight gradient.
Maybe I can make it shinier somehow.

This is the extent of my ability to make fake chrome unless I find time to follow a tutorial.
I will gladly turn it over to someone who already has the skills.

Done for now. I need sleep.

I haven't minded... we've all had good input into it. Howard fortunately has a lot more windows programming skills and experience than I do. There was little point me pushing my program as without each others help, this would have taken alot longer. He deserves a name in the hall of fame of Arcadecontrols.com for his efforts to the community. :)

It's only a little over a year since I release the RamjetVR program which has till now been only Pacdrive compatible because I didn't have anything else to test with... and that was pretty much the start of a movement for Model 2 again. Everything I've done has been for the first time and pretty much winging it from electronic experience of past.

I don't think this would have happened had the issue with M2 losing screen focus on reload was not solved, and then suddenly it seemed viable to put effort into fixing what was left.

Darthmarino's video was confirmation that Model 2 shooters looked exciting to play when he first posted the test video with the borderless app. So it's really been a community pulling together. I'm really glad to have been part of it and to share what we've done.

I love the Logo too! It's almost fitting to the time that the program now serves :)
