GunCon2 on PC-monitor

SirPoonga,
let me explain you one thing that could be of help.

The circuit zeropoint is working on is used to supply an hardware adaption of the VGA sync level for the guncon2 to make it work on standard pc-monitor.

Since the software driver is the same, all the non-connection related issues are the same like for the other connections type.

So basically: yes! It is possible to connect 2 guns.

brained:
OMG It will be gun slinging mayhem  :police:

I figured as much, but I had to make sure.  I don't want to buy something without finding out if it does what i wnat it to do first :)

About the GunCon2 with J-PAC:
The J-PAC produces a 5 volt composite sync signal which is the correct level for arcade monitors. But this might be too high for the gun, which is expecting a sync derived from composite video. I have a gun on order to test with.
I think a better way would be to take the sync from before the J-PAC, using the X-OR circuit to produce composite from H and V.
I have already drawn up a simple PCB which has male/female D connectors and an X-OR circuit, and a RCA connector for the gun. If there is any demand I'll get this made, it could be used with orwithout the J-PAC.

SirPoonga:
Andy, how about another possiblity.  Have an RCA cable directly on an arcadevga for those of us who don't use jpac?  Have the circuitry already part of the video card?  Then one would just need t plug in the gun...
