Sinden Lightgun Kickstarter date revealed!
KenToad:
Yeah, my point was to turn off the crosshairs in MAME and show how well you can target things just with the lightgun and the in-game crosshairs that positional games like T2 use. It would also be cool to see if the gun works well for Star Wars Trilogy.
On the calibration screen for Time Crisis 2 on my PS2 using a CRT, after you shoot the center for calibration, the screen continuously tracks and displays where the gun is pointing and the resulting crosshair is slightly wobbly, so I would imagine that that is what we're seeing in the above T2 video. This should mean that all you need to do is disable MAME's crosshair, which is for the best, assuming that you can use the iron sights on the Sinden lightgun.
For the other deer hunter video, did you do the calibration in the actual arcade game? If you didn't, the shots could easily land like that.

Oh I thought you wanted to see the crosshairs lagging which Is why I turned the crosshairs on.
And yes of course it will always be wobbly I dont have a grip of stone haha, But I normally play without cross hairs as per the other videos I made.
I have not tried star wars trilogy so can not confirm or deny ATM.
But yeah T2 does not really show anything off, I think shooting a apple off a guys head in point blank is a much better show of performance personally and I have played Point Blank and Sportgun with it quite a bit the last few days.

I wouldn't call that crosshair lagging. It looks like the Sinden is sending fast updates that are tightly grouped, causing the wobble. Regarding the wobble, put the gun on a stable surface and you'll likely see that it continues, just as it does when you do that with a Guncon 2.
It looks like the accuracy is off. Did you go into the service menus of those arcade games and calibrate the gun (technically just calibrate the crosshair)?

You on about the hunting game now?
No the accuracy is spot on the shots were going exactly where I was aiming.
Its the cross hairs that are off.
Would be nice if Haze can confirm but I suspect the cross hairs are bound to the position of the windows mouse cursor.
But when you calibrate the gun in the games service menu its obv not where the mouse would be pointing.
KenToad:
No, you need to calibrate the position of the MAME crosshairs. For T2, you go into the calibration screen by turning on the service menu through MAME's tab menu, then choosing calibrate guns, then align the MAME crosshairs with the target crosshairs. If you haven't done that already, that should fix your issue with the crosshairs being off your shots.
