Ah I see. I hadn't even thought about how it would act outside of play like that :banghead:

Ok so it's been a couple of years since I donated. Is this still the most up to date version from my link?

JB_GUN4IR_GUI_1.26_FW_2.64.zip

If not, may I please email you JB for an update?


Additionally, If I purchase this https://rpegelectronics.com/products/universal-gun4ir-diy-pcb?pr_prod_strat=jac&pr_rec_id=6a4074826&pr_rec_pid=7500555387069&pr_ref_pid=7150185021629&pr_seq=uniform

Aside from a gun shell, what else is needed to be purchased? I'm trying to decide if I want to build this or just put sindens on the credit card and hide from my wife.

Thanks all.

Boa tarde! tudo bem?

Estou com um problema na instalação da gun4ir no windows 7, gostaria de saber se alguem ja passou por isso e poderia me ajudar.

O windows 7 reconhece o arduino pro micro, quando faço a gravação na placa, ela se tranforma em um dispositivo (GUN4IR Pro Micro P1) e o software não o detecta para fazer os testes e configurações. Segue as imagens.

Desde de já agradeço.

Bonjour,

Est-ce que ce schéma est bon pour brancher un moteur de vibration <500mA, peut-on reprendre le 5V sur l'arduino ? :



Faut-il shunter le J1 sur l'Arduino Pro Micro ?

Personne ne peut me renseigner ?

Merci.  ;)

Hi, I recently setup a new old PC just for GUN4IR but the setup software doesn't seem to detect the gun. It's working as in I can move the mouse around, just the utility doesn't see any guns.

In Device manager I can see a com port appear when the GUN is connected, so I tried to install the driver from the GUN4IR folder but it reports "JB GUN4IR Pro Micro P2" "A service installation section in this INF is invalid". Any idea how I can resolve this?

Thanks

Hi
I have recently built a gun using arduino micro board and connected pretty much everything to it. All seams to work well but when i press right nothing happens. Button connected to pin 12 and tested on other board. I have also noticed that when rgb led is not connected the pins for directions are in different places. Is this expected? Same behaviour on all my micro boards

using firmware 2.58 - micro

with the same board in latest batocera when i press any direction I am getting double press. Have not experienced this on pro micro board. Any one seen this before?

P.S. thanks for a great project

Hey Folks-

Just got my Gun4IR today and I've been setting it up.  For the most part, everything has been going well.  Until I tried to utilize an AHK script (I use Launchbox/BigBox) to dynamically change the resolution when you launch MAME to 3:4, then back to widescreen when you quit.  The script actually works fine, but everytime MAME launches - the window completely loses focus and I have to manually alt-tab to get to it. 

Here's the script I've been using to launch when the mame rom launches in Mame:
Run, %COMSPEC% /C echo M3.1 > COM4
Run, %COMSPEC% /C echo M3.1 > COM5

~ESC::
Run, %COMSPEC% /C echo M3.0 > COM4
Run, %COMSPEC% /C echo M3.0 > COM5
ExitApp
return

Is there perhaps something wrong in my script?  Or, is there something I may be missing?  Note: in mame - I have my mame.ini file set to fullscreen.
