Hello all, I am a newbie MAME player. I have just received my LCD TopGun. I have a few questions here :

1. Which MAME games supports 2 guns ?

2. Does Virtual Cop 1&2, House of the Dead 1,2,3 support two guns ?

3. Does WinGun and Guncon2PC driver support two guns ?

4. Finally, which version of MAME are you using ? I am using the EXTRAMAME, but I can't run the AREA51. Is it the problem of the rom ? Where do you download roms ?

Help help !! Hope you guys could kindly help me. Thank you very much !!

Smog:
1 ) Basically all two player working lightgun games, but reading this thread you can find more specific infos.
2 ) Yes they do but you should install the troubleshooter (refer to its site for more infos)
3 ) Yes they do
4 ) The best mame build under XP for 2 guns is AdvanceMame in my opinion. Analog Mame has good 2 guns support too. The worst is the default mame (and mame32 and mame32 plus) build ... but it is easier to configure. Mame32 has unsolved issues with wingun but you can use mame32  plus instead).


Regarding area51 : I don't think this thread is the right place to solve those kind of problems however you probably miss the chd for it. Try to find help for that in a more specific MAME board.

okay, my gun finally arrived today, but im at work and wont get a chance to play with it until later tonight.

So I have a quesion I want to clear up - does the wingun driver definately NOT work with mame32.
I use mamewah to launch games via mame 32 command line. I do NOT want to use command line only mame, as mame32 lets me reconfig options with ease over my wireless network.

Can someone please test this for me as I dont want to clog my system up with a driver that is useless.

If Wingun does not work, what is the alternative? The EMS driver? I am only using ONE gun but want to be able to shoot outside of the screen to reload.
I also want to run games via fce ultra (nes emu) and PC gun games

I have to hold the start/select and recalibrat it and then it start working again. I don't know is this is due to the recoil/gun taking too much power from the pc or what. Any ideas?

Yes I believe I have the same problem (see my earlier posts).  One solution is to disconnect the recoil, and another (although I haven't tested it) is to use an external transformer or USB hub to supply power to the recoil.

Silver: good work on the mame gun build :)

Damn, I was so hoping to open my mailbox today and find a notice from the local mail office that I have a package waiting for me... but alas...

Anyway, just wanted you guys to know that I've e-mailed the manufactorer about thier drivers and they said there will be an updated driver released within the month.

Also, I've e-mailed the author of The Troubleshooter, and he expressed interest in the TopGun and said he will probably add support for it once\if he finds the time, I know several users have found the TopGun already compatible with The Troubleshooter but I believe if the author adds specific support to it there will probably be better performance and support for TopGun specific features such as the D-Pad for instance, which is something the ACT Labs guns don't have AFAIK.

Off topic: has anyone had any success with Point Blank 3 on ePSXe, regarding the problem where you can track with the mouse but not shoot?
