Guns
« on: January 23, 2006, 04:46:49 am »
Ive had my completed cab for a while now, but one thing I overlooked was the option of adding a light gun. Now I crave to play games such as Jurassic park, T2 and duck hunt on MAME and NES emulators respectively.

My question is,

is there a noob FAQ or guide to adding guns and setting up for MAME.
Im running my cab on an xp PC, a  normal CRT PC monitor with a piece of toughened glass over the screen.

Is there a simple solution - USB or Saturn to PC converter (I have a saturn gun) , I can also get my hands on PS1 guns if need be.

Can someone offer me some advice?

This topic has been discussed many times, if you search you could turn up more than you need. Using a Saturn to PC converter won't work but you can use a GunCon2 gun for PS2 on your PC with a driver (again a highly discussed topic).

but that doesnt help because the guncon2 is a CRT light gun, I have a PC monitor in my cab.

Also, I cant see ANY details via a search on HOW to set up and caliberate a gun for MAME and NES emulator; FCE Ultra.
I also dont have a spare PS2 port.
