Main > Lightguns
I am using a genuine arcade CRT for my MAME cab. Can I use any light gun?

IR aiming doesn't bother me. I actually kind of like seeing the crosshairs. I am basing this on how much better it was playing Resident Evil 4 on the Wii than any other version. I never found the Wii gun aiming to be a problem so the Ultimarc sounds like it's right up my alley.

If you'll be happy with IR guns then you get the added bonus of being able to play the positional gun games, which true light guns won't work on.

I just got my 2 AimTraks :)

I love them except I am noticing it is almost impossible to hit any ducks in VS Duck Hunt. It seems way too sensitive, like I try to hold my hand steady but the crosshairs still shake a bit too much to hit anything. Is there a way to fix this? I know in MAME when I press tab there is an option for gun sensitivity and speed but even if I set those to the lowest possible values, it does not make a difference. I am guessing those settings are for actual light guns, not IR guns. Any way to drop the sensitivity down?

Also it does not work in CarnEvil at all. However, I noticed CarnEvil runs way too fast (I think it was a CD-based game? I notice all the golden tee games in the FMV areas run way too fast as well). Is it because it's running way too fast? I was googling the issue but all I see are people complaining that CarnEvil runs way too slow!

Couldnt tell you why but my CarnEvil runs fine?? Very wierd... Some kind of issue with hardware I suspect?
Or maybe a Rom/CD image miss match? I dunno...

As for gun sensitivity, Just practice your aim will come ;)

really? I just checked and it's just carnevil.zip and the carnevil chd folder. It runs a lot faster than it should. All the voices are high pitched too. I am the only one with this issue?? :(
