WTF - $22 PC Light Guns???
aljupy:
If I write above is because I own:
1) PC SUPER BIO GUN (The lightgun this topic is about)
2) PC VIRTUAL GUN
3) ACT LABS "TV OUT" Version
4) GUNCON-2 (Connected to TV thanks to Wingun and SMogīs driver)
5) LCD TOP GUN
I know at this time wich one suits me best...... accuracy/price/gameplay
Best Regards

So what about all of those GunCon2 clones? The main issue I have to deal with is the rollover issue. I know the LCDTopgun works, but I've seen nothing about the rest of the GunCon2 clones (which is what the LCD Topgun *is*)
aljupy:
The clones of GUNCON-2 are nice gun models and nice-looking. Such as a walther or a Uzi... With lot of extras, like Laser pointer and Autofire, and etc...etc....
But 90% of them requires that you play with a lot of brightness to track well on the screen. So....... bad gameplay for some users that like to track well screen with their lightgun
Remember that Guncon-2 connected to a PC , you must play it on a TV. Or do a Hardware Hack made by Sylver to play on PC MONITOR.
If I donīt remember bad.....Smog said that its driver were not vista compatible. So I guess that your favourite VISTA64 is not compatible neither.
Best Regards.

Okay - I'll have to dig it up here in a bit, but I *do* have a reference perl implementation that I could generate a win32 binary for that would allow you to use it on Vista64. The concern is more for whether or not it would work.
To be fair - my focus has been getting the GunCon2 working on FreeBSD and MacOS X, but that's another story entirely.
I hadn't experienced tracking problems on my arcade monitor on low brightness. As soon as my new chassis arrives later this week, I'll play with that.

We'll see...

I finally got a quote back. It's $29 shipping (airmail) to the U.S. Which would make the total $51.
But the guy said they only have 1 left.
I'm passing... I think I'll wait for better ones.
