Dual Topgun problems...

Kaytrim:
I have smogs driver installed it works fine in windows but is not recognized in mame.  I do plan on sticking with this until I get it working.  I just don't have a large block of time to put on this to push through.

Kaytrim,

No worries mate - we'll get them working in no time !!!!

Have you edited your mame.ini file to tell it about the lightguns ?

Heres a snippet of my mame.ini :

#
# INPUT DEVICE OPTIONS
#
mouse                   0
joystick                0
lightgun                1
dual_lightgun           1

It MAY be easier to just get one gun working first though.

I may be wrong but I think dual lightgun support wasn't orinally in mame - but I'm not sure what version they added support. I'm running mame .116 if thats any help.

You will definitely want the latest version of mame.  I am assuming you have the latest smog driver and you haven't installed aynthing else previously.

What frontend are you using?  Mala makes it really easy to change the mame.ini settings. 

Once you are in mame, do you hit tab, game input, and try moving the gun around the screen?
Kaytrim:
MAME & ROM files, version 116
Latest smog drivers
tried the EMS and WinGun drivers not sure if they are fully uninstalled

dual_lightgun        ?

I don't know much more right now as I am at the office.  If I get the chance tonight I'll poke around and report back.

*edit  I use WindowsXP and GameEx.

Should look like that in the mame.ini file.  What happens when you map the guns to the game.  You still have to map them after they are setup in the mame.ini file.  Assuming they are working as a mouse on Windows, they should work.  When you open Smog's program and pull the trigger, does it register as a button press?
