Taito Under Fire guns with PC
« on: July 25, 2016, 04:44:02 am »
Hi All,

I have a couple of Taito Under Fire guns and the IR receiver and was just wondering if anyone had played around with interfacing these guns with a pc or had any suggestions on how it could be done.

I like the idea of emulating gun games byt don't like the feel of the home market guns i've tried.

Cheers,
Andy

You could retro fit it with aim trak internals?
You can buy the internals seperately.

The Under Fire guns have great recoil so i'd like to keep the internals if possible.

Afraid I am not framiliar with the under fire guns, but possibly you could use the aimtrak sensors and the original recoil unit.
Guess it would depend on power requirements etc but it may be possible?

Cant say any more than that though as I have no idea lol

It'll be interesting to see if i can make them work. One more project to add to the list  ;D

Will certainly be a learning experience
