I am pretty new to light guns and do not fully understand how these guns will tell the game (software) they have shot and what to kill. The act labs guns work like a mouse through a composite or s-video connection so I know how those work. But how will these guns tell the computer they have shot? Also, I hope these guns work better than the act labs guns in 2-player mode. I was pulling my hair out getting them to work and still after a week of trying they are not even close to perfect, especially in MAME. Thx Mark |

When you fire an infra red beam is sent between the stands and thats how it calculates where you have shot... ........I think! |

What I mean is "hang" them off the side. So they wouldn't cover up your bezel. Thoughts of hinging coming to mind as well but that may be getting crazy here. I may not be clear in what I'm trying to say. If not, let me know JamIt --- End quote --- Dang! I didnt even think of that!! --- End quote --- --- Quote from: quarterback on January 24, 2006, 01:11:09 pm ---Why don't you just put them on the sides of your cab. --- End quote --- |

--- Quote ---Do you have to recalibrate every time you move? --- End quote --- from the calibration video from the first link, the video says at the beggining: "it is not necessary to recalibrate the gun unless the postion of the led stands has changed" |
