Light Gun Interface
Lilwolf:
As a quick note...
Has anyone looked at possibly using dreamcast guns on a PC?
why? They work with all main types of monitors (svid/arcademonitors/VGA) and their cheap.
Then you might be able to hack the insides into a real arcade gun instead of trying to get an arcade gun working with a PC.
Just seems like if someone got that solution working (and working well) it would be a one stop solution for ALL CRT types... Even though they usually look a little stupid.

got a link to a DIY DC>PC adapter? ;)
DarkKobold:
Except that you are forgetting that you still need to write the driver to do the screen flash, to coordinate position, etc.
If you can do that, go ahead!

I'm a lurker and don't post much, but...
What happened? Any luck getting the thingie to see if anyone could write a driver?

I think the best bet would be for someone to actually buy the ULGI interface board. I'm more than willing to code up a driver for it for MAME.
Maybe I could start a paypal donation project.
