Hi! Thanks Argon for Tc5 support.

I have a problem though:
With original resolution it works fine, but if I change the resolution in TimeCrisisGame/Config/DefaultSystemSettings.ini, the aiming get bugged like not using Demulshooter. I have tested 800x600, 512x288 and 1280x720, which keeps original aspect ratio.

Also, for me, with two monitors the x axis get bugged. Not a problem, but maybe helps somebody.

 I just solved this problem on another forum. The problem is scaling. Right click on desktop and choose Display settings and change to 100%. For me this was not ideal though because it made everything on my TV too small when I wasn't playing the game. So someone gave me a script to solve this. Let me know if you need the script but it's a little difficult you need settings in your registry.

Mmm.. I had scale to 100% already set. So it doesn't seem the same problem. What resolution are you using?

I haven't changed the resolution in the Time Crisis 5 settings, my display is 1920x1080.

My problem was, I could not shoot on the right side of the screen.

Thanks alot argonlefou for adding this. Just so much fun being able to play the game properly!

Hi! Thanks Argon for Tc5 support.

I have a problem though:
With original resolution it works fine, but if I change the resolution in TimeCrisisGame/Config/DefaultSystemSettings.ini, the aiming get bugged like not using Demulshooter. I have tested 800x600, 512x288 and 1280x720, which keeps original aspect ratio.

I managed to fix this by first setting the desktop resolution to the same as the game (refresh might need to match), then launch demulshooter, and then the game (with -resx=xres and -resy=yres). I use display scaling, not sure if that makes a difference.

Example for using 1360x768 (clean TC5, no ini changes):

Set desktop resolution to 1360x768 (display scaling might be needed, refresh might need to be the same)
run DemulShooterX64.exe -target=es3 -rom=tc5
run TimeCrisisGame-Win64-Shipping.exe -resx=1360 -resy=768

With 1360x768 the videos are not the right size though.

I can't get the latest demulshooter to work with Time Crisis 5 and the aimtrak. It seems like demulshooter hooks but it doesn't seem to have any effect. The menus are fine, but once in game the aim goes all over the place. Yes, I'm using demulshooterX64 and have scaling set at 100%. Tried 1280x720 and 1920x1080 resolutions, made no difference.

Have you tried @intealls solution?
For me its working, but changing desktop resolution must be the first step. Demulshooter seems to work fine starting both before or after tc5.
I wanted to use 512x288 but I get an error "resolution too low to start game". So I tried changing desktop resolution after launching the game, and it skips the error and the game starts, but demulshooter only seem to work fine if I change desktop resolution before starting the game.
Any idea to solve this?

I'll try it tomorrow, but I'm doubtful it will help any. I already tried to run the game at 1920x1080 and my desktop is also set to 1920x1080.

Mindwipe, I get the exact same symptoms as yourself. Everything as default, untouched, menus work fine but once in game the AimTraks are all over the place. 1080 desktop res, 100% scaling. Not even sure what the default res is. I only tried once, ill try again later.

If you discover a solution please let me know. I will do the same. Thanks

Hi Headrush69
Did you manage to get this working? I only ask as I was messing around with some bits the other day and my version had stopped working.

Still getting that meory error issue and my previous work around didn't work-grrrrr!!!!

However after lots and lots of trial and error I found another work around - this time I opened the game and then opened Demulshooter - YIPPEE it works, and I remembered you were having issues so thought I would put it on here just in case.

Gave it a few goes and it hooked every time - still get the same memory reading/writing issues which appear to be related to button offset but it works.
I switched to using JConfig instead of Teknoparrot and it hooked and worked OK.

I'll give your method a try and see if it works too.

Edit: You are correct, it worked. If I start SGG via teknoparrot first, and then start demulshooter after, it works as expected.

Demulshooter does not handle buttons in this game, only axis.

Hello, I have some question about the PC game Blue Estate.
This game can support 2 gamepad (X 360), so it's possible to use 2 wiimotes emulated as mouse with touchmote then emulated again as pad in demulshooter ?

I m doing that for Lost Island, but impossible to find clear information for Blue Estate.

As I know, demulshooter does not support 2player on Blue Estate.

And demulshooter can emulate gamepad as mouse, not mouse as game pad.

Heya. Thanks a lot for the software, but I'm having an issue. It's not directly related to DemulShooter but maybe it's something it can fix. Basically, in mode 2, left and right click get inverted if a nunchuck is inserted into the wiimote. Which, considering the two guns I have, is a bit of a bummer to me. It's not too much of a problem since I can switch them on MAME or stuff like that, but Sega Model 2 is giving me trouble since it ignores the left handed setting of the mouse if I apply it.

Think there's anything you can do about it? If so, you mind sharing how? I'd love to find a more permanent solution to switch the left and right click specifically for the wiimote (based on its PID).

PS: by the way, I only spoke of Sega Model 2 emulator but it's the same issue on TC5.

Hyo is right on both points.

If you have wiimotes ans want to play Blue Estate, you may try Touchmote to get Xinput gamepad from Wiimotes.

I don't remember if the game supports dual gamepad (or only mouse+gamepad) though

I argon...i wrote here a couple of months ago about cxbx supporting silent scop 1 and 2 perfectly (3 still has some bugs). you said you dont have time for it back than, maybe now you some spare time to look at it:)?
the xbox was the only port with a true light gun support.
on pcsx2 its not working that well with nuvee and etc, it has sensitivity problems.

I agree. Silent Scope was one of my favorites at the arcade growing up and yes, it was not runing smoothly (in my experience) with nuvee plugin, last time I checked. Support for that game via cxbx and demulshooter would be epic.

Hey, still a no-go here with my Aimtrak. Tried it with DemulShooter, with Jconfig, GameLoader, edited ini files to lower the mouse sensitivity and yes the settings to lower the sensitivity helped a bit but the aim is still wonky and does not center properly. I give up for now :)

I can use Demulshooter but I can't shoot on the right side of the screen. I just got a new TV and it's the same problem. I am aiming as far as I can to the right in this pic so I can't even shoot the enemy. If I use Tiberius method, or play any other game I don't have this problem.

I think I know the problem but only argon can answer most likely.

DXDiag says I'm 1280x720, but my screen resolution is 1920x1080. It makes sense too because it's cutting my screen off. How do I fix please?

Well I was having problems with JConfig too, but I fixed it. it's a little less accurate, but at least I can shoot on the right side of the screen so I will stick with it unless I can figure out my problem with Demulshooter.

Change your scale option 150% to 100%

Yeah I have a script now that can change it to 100% when the game launches then changes it back to 150% when the game ends. I need 150% for my TV for other things than the game.

Well this is worse than I originally thought. I thought my Time Crisis 5 Demulshooter was the only problem, but it's ALL Demulshooter games and even when I change the scaling to 100% it doesn't fix it in other games than Time Crisis 5.

If I change resolution to 1280 x 720 it shoots the entire screen. Why is Demulshooter only working in 1280 x 720 though and how would I change it?

It's mapped to T and Y keyboard keys by default. If you want to change it it requires an ahk script. I mapped mine to my gun which emulates a mouse it looks like this.

As I know, demulshooter does not support 2player on Blue Estate.

And demulshooter can emulate gamepad as mouse, not mouse as game pad.

Ha right, and yes It seem it have support for 2 gamepads, just got the game, will make a try just with touchmote.

Edit:
No succed yet, but it seem it s not possible, there is 2 gamepad support, but not absolute position, so not usable with touchmote.

Mindwipe, I get the exact same symptoms as yourself. Everything as default, untouched, menus work fine but once in game the AimTraks are all over the place. 1080 desktop res, 100% scaling. Not even sure what the default res is. I only tried once, ill try again later.

If you discover a solution please let me know. I will do the same. Thanks

Hey, still a no-go here with my Aimtrak. Tried it with DemulShooter, with Jconfig, GameLoader, edited ini files to lower the mouse sensitivity and yes the settings to lower the sensitivity helped a bit but the aim is still wonky and does not center properly. I give up for now :)

I got it working simply by exiting and restarting the boot up process. It has happened once again since (working in menus but not in game) but exiting and loading DS and the game again fixes it. Only happened twice now in say 10+ boots. So the issue might just bit a rare one..

I have several beyond noob questions but I have been at it for several days now and not sure where else to turn so I am hoping the community can help me out. 

I would like to start off by saying thank you so much for this program.  It is truly incredible and I greatly appreciate your time.

My Setup...
I have 2 aimtrack guns on a moderately powerful gaming PC.
In the aimtrak utility I have Trigger on screen set to left click, trigger off screen set to right click, left button on screen set to middle click, and the rest is blank, have the utility reading the gun as a mouse
latest demul emulator installed
latest demulshooter emulator installed
no frontend

My Goal...
So basic, just be able to run demul shooter on demul to play hotd2 with 2 guns

My issues...
I set both guns up using the DemulshooterGUI and tested using the DS program, all buttons register and crosshairs move nicely
I can get demulshooter to run in the tray using this code C:\demulshooter\demulshooter.exe -target=demul07a -rom=hotd2
Then problems strike, when I go to double click the demul.exe emulator a black window pops up then disappears but the demul logo stays in the taskbar I just cant do anything with it.  How do I make demul launch and stay open?

The other problem I have is I cant make hotd2 in demul without demultshooter reload.  I can shoot on screen but then I cant do anything to reload.  I have the maple device for player one set to lightgun.  How do I fix this issue? I am not running demul in fullscreen because it distorts the game so much that its unplayable.  Does the emulator have to be in fullscreen for reload to work?

I feel like I am so close and its probably a minor setting or two but after 4 nights ending with me going to bed at 3AM frustrated I dont know what else I need to do.  Thank you all so much for your support and the invaluable content this forum has provided.

Most of all, thank you to argonlefou for allowing all of us to relive our favorite childhood games.  You are a gaming saint!  :notworthy:

Anyone who use dolphin bar in mode 2, knows how to map the minus and plus buttons? i dont want them to control the volume.
i can do some script, but i dont know how to make the script to "recognize" those wiimote buttons.

I don't know why you're having this problem, but Demul is just a pain in the ass. I have a GTX 1650 and if I run it in fullscreen I get horrible sound skips and low framerate, however as soon as I do windowed fullscreen it's perfectly fine. I can emulate PS3 and Nintendo Switch even, but only have problems with this poorly designed emulator.

I would try a clean install of Demul maybe and make sure you're using the latest version of Demul with DX11 not DX11old.

Does everything else look like it is setup properly?  Is demulshooter compatible with the most recent version of demul (DEmul x86 v0.7 BUILD 111117)? Which button is the start button in hotd2, would it be my left button on screen "middle click"? I cannot even press start with the guns which I find strange.  Are there any other settings in demul I should adjust to make everything work properly? 

Would anyone who has everything working properly care to care screen shots of their AimTrak utility settings, all of their demul emulator settings, and their command line for demulshooter?

Thank you again for your time, I truly appreciate all of the help.

111117 is not the latest build, I use 221215 and even that's not the latest build but it works ok.

Always refer to the Demulshooter guide and it will answer most if not all of your questions

https://github.com/argonlefou/DemulShooter/wiki

From the Demul section:Multiple versions of Demul are supported, for users stuck with windows XP and an older version of Demul for example.
Latest version of Demul (07a) using DX11 is the best to use if you can !

With your build you're not using 07a but just 07, 07a is newer.

The guide is great but it does not address emulator settings or aimtrak settings.  Would someone be willing to share their settings so I have an example to follow?

You are using wrong Demul version. You must use Demul 0.7a 28-04-18, it works PERFECT with Demulshooter  :cheers:
