Still waiting on feedback that plays a game like how we actually played them in arcades.

Did you miss the tracking video PBJ?

I can get similar results on T2 with a joystick but theres no way I can play proper lightgun games with a top gun.

I have one corroding in the loft and thats where it will stay.

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.

The T2 crosshairs are in line with the mame crosshairs?

I am talking about the other video of the hunting game where the crosshairs are about 1” to the right of the calibrated shot.

You should be able to fix that in the game's service menu, if you haven't already tried. I don't know the game, so I'm not sure.

--- End quote ---

I doubt it as its a mame issue not the game.

Doesnt matter to me as its fine without crosshairs.

--- End quote ---

It's not a MAME issue. As far as I know, it's just normal behavior when you don't align the MAME crosshairs with the calibration targets in the service menu. It should just have to done once per game. It doesn't matter, obviously, if the aiming is working without the crosshairs activated.

--- End quote ---

Dont think you are understanding what I am saying.

The Gun was calibrated using the games service menu, But the crosshairs generated by MAME are still where the mouse was BEFORE it was calibrated.

So the shots are accurate in the game but the crosshairs are not.

If you play a game that does not need calibrating the crosshairs line up fine.

Yup, I suspect the crosshairs are locked to the mouse position so the mouse is located where the crosshair is on the screen but the calibration tells mame that the shot should be 1" left of it in this case.
I mean I could be totally wrong but I am assuming thats how it works :p

But as I say turn the crosshairs off and you dont notice any problem and you have no distracting blue thing flying around LOL

So, before calibration, the Sinden gun, acting as the mouse, is locked directly onto the Mame crosshairs, but then, after calibration, the shots fire to the left? Or was the Sinden gun never locked to the crosshairs in this case?

I'm just curious, as it sounds odd. I'm glad it works without the crosshairs.
