I'm currently working on my "revised" Mario Bros MAME project. Finally (after years of having them) I've decided to complete and add my AimTrak lightguns. I've had some major PC issues as of late, and ended up scrapping the existing PC and going with an old HP I had kicking around. I put in a new HDD and did a fresh Windows install, installed MALA & MAME, and started to add the emulators & ROM files. I'm going to have the following systems/games installed. (1) MAME (2) NES (3) SEGA MASTER SYSTEM (4) SEGA GENESIS (5) TURBO GRAFX 16 (6) HOUSE OF THE DEAD 1,2, & 3 (PC VERSIONS) I'm yet to finishing the configuation for MAME, all be it I dont supsect any issues. The ULTIMARC website has plenty of documentation on the set up. I don't recall what emulator I'm using for NES, but it is working flawlessly. No configuation required........it just worked! For House Of The Dead I installed the Troubleshooter. I'm yet to configure it. Where I'm stuck is with Sega, I'm using KEGA FUSION and I find I can't get it working with the guns. I'm looking for anyone that can suggest a good Sega (& Genesis) emulator with light gun support. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks all |

Not sure if it supports light gun or not but I always use gens. |

for master system, i use mame. in the “slot” section, you can pick the controller type. genesis i am running retroarch 1.6.9 with the genesis gx plus core. note that the newest retroarch broke gun support so get 1.6.9 hope this helps! |

Thank you @tony.silveira , I appreciate the help. I'll look into these ASAP! I'm confused, for Sega Master System you use MAME ? MAME will run my Sega Master System ROMs (the ROM extension escapes me now). I've tried in the past to run things like Playstation and Dreamcast, but I ran into many issues configuring controls, even for the N64 and SNES I had these issues. As such for this build I've accepted my limitations (and PC limitations) and just gone with what I've listed above. I know I'm missing some awesome light gun games, and a few I may look for the PC versions of them.... but it is what it is ! I'll still have tons of options (+ a Raspberry Pi bartop build that will allow my to emulate consoles I cant/wont play on my cabinet). EDIT ---- Can I run Retroarch thru Mala, does anyone know ? Mala is the existing frontend I'm using. Again thank you all ! |

i was using fusion for master system and genesis, still do for every game that doesn’t use lightguns. in looking for alternatives, mame worked for master system with guns! i believe the rom extension is sms. i have never used mala but i would think of you point mala to rlauncher as the emu, it would work. RL was a steep learning curve for me but if you take the plunge, i’m sure it will pay off for you. feel free to PM me if you need some specific help. |
