Has anyone tried 2 player on any of the HOTD series and gotten it working with the TOPGUNs? Were you successfull? --- End quote --- look earlier in the thread. there are people who have recorded video of them sucessfully playing HOTD2 and 3. All three (including both virtua cop games) should work with this gun. |

To be a little more specific Silver was able to play the PC HOTD2 with two guns. --- Quote ---Update: I have now played HOTD2 in 2 player - works well. I had to reconfigure the troubleshooter - you must select ActLabs TV lightguns, not PC USB lightguns. Then I had to put player2 button2 to mouse1button4 in Wingun. This does not track the guns permanently, only when you fire, but this has no impact on this game at all (same as arcade). --- End quote --- |

You can buy them from www.the-console-corner.com and use the coupon code "oldskewl" to get 15% off, so it'll cost you $82.63 for two guns shipped USPS Priority mail within the US. I don't know how good the-console-corner.com is though, they don't have any recent reviews on reseller-ratings, but all their old ones are pretty bad. --- End quote --- I had a pretty bad experience with them a couple of years ago. I think anyone ordering these guns would be better off dealing with lik-sang or playasia. They seem to more reputable than the-console-corner. |

Man can't believe the way EMS is handling their communications, BIG compliments for them ! I got another E-mail from Henry at EMS about the LED's lifetime (even though I already indicated to him that I understood and was going to order anyway :) ! Anyway: more IR-Led info, Randy your notes seem te get confirmed here: QUOTE: .... By the way, lifetime of intrared LED is different from normal LED. For the latest 6th generation normal LED (which is very expensive), the lifetime is 100,000 hours. For the best infrared LED at this moment (that's what we are currently using), it's lifetime is around 10,000 - 20,000 hours, it's brightness would be decreased by 20% after used for 1000 hours. Therefore, the expected lifetime of our LED stands would be around 3-4 years, consider the stand would works for 2 hours each day, 365 days in a year. ... UNQUOTE Don't know about you, but I bet no-one will play 2 hours a day 365 per year. So expect about 10 years or so of normal usage from these. And if you bought two sets...well guess you can do the math ;) On the other hand, DO NOT let these baby's run 24h/day !!! ALSO DO NOT POWER THEM UP TOGETHER WITH YOUR CAB'S POWER. Else they'll burn out while you're playing Pac Man and stuff..... OK we need an output to switch the LED's on and off as soon as we launch a lightgun game ;) Well if the LED's eventualy stop being bright enough......replace them. I bet they got 100.000 hour lasting versions in a year or 4...... |
