Do I need to calibrate gun for "Crypt Killer" and "Zombie Raid"
(1/3) > >>
unclet:
I am using one ActLabs TV USB lightgun on my cabinet and can now (after installing Mame32v103) get Hogan's Alley, Duck Hunt, and other lightgun games to work. 

I have not tried all lightgun games in Mame yet, but I happened to notice a couple games (Crypt Killer and Zombie Raid) started up but the calibration is completely off.   Where ever I shoot, it seems the crosshairs are just doing whateve rthey want (ie: no real association of where I am shooting and where the crosshairs are seen).

Are these games playable in Mame?  If so, what is the secret?
Silver:
zombie raid plays perfectly (although I had been reporting it did not - my mistake). Hit F3 for service mode, select Gun Adjust, calibrate and it works great.


Looking into Cryptklr now....
Silver:
Cryptklr: The gun is offset when you fire.

This is similar to the issue is Lethal Enforcers (1+2), and all the namcos2.c gun games.

They can all fixed by altering the mame source to set the initial starting position of the input port to the centre of the screen. I've got a build that only supports gun games that fixes this located here:

Sourcediff from 0.103 here:

(most if just stripping non-gun drivers)

example of difference in source here, at the bottom:

Thanks a lot.

I believe Service Mode is F2 .... not F3 ..... which you currently state one should press for Zombie Raid

Also .... sinec I use Mame32 .... is there a chance you would compile a Mame32 version of your mamegun.exe  ......

My young kids are use to Mame32 and they will not be able to understand command line Mame ....
