xbox light guns working on a pc with arcade monitor
« on: June 09, 2007, 11:07:02 pm »
Hi I was thinking of light guns earlier today and I was wondering if anyone has or herd of using a xbox light gun on the pc by usb like the xbox controller does but be the xbox light gun instead and work with a arcade monitor I know it would not work with vga becuase it is different but since arcade monitors have light gun support is it possible to wire a xbox light gun usb like the xbox controller?

 For instance I cut my dongle off a origanal xbox controller and I soldered a male usb end to it and it now is plug and play usb to pc with the mod and the XBCD drivers if it does not work the same then what needs to be done does anyone know if it is a hardware issue or a software becuase it would be nice to get them going on a pc becuase it would be a nice cheap alternative to real arcade light guns or any other for that matter really.

if anyone has any tech. info on this please post them thank's.
