Sweet!!
Please! Whoever gets this up and running first please post a thread with pics and a video!
ZeroPoint:
The off-screen reload function:
When the camera is tracking, it sends normal (fire) button when pulling the trigger.
When the camera see no IR light (not tracking), send another button (assigned as reload) when pulling the trigger.
In mame:
-[no]offscreen_reload / -[no]reload
Controls whether or not MAME treats a second button input from a
lightgun as a reload signal. In this case, MAME will report the gun's
position as (0,MAX) with the trigger held, which is equivalent to an
offscreen reload. This is only needed for games that required you to
shoot offscreen to reload, and then only if your gun does not support
off screen reloads. The default is OFF (-nooffscreen_reload).
About two players in HOD etc.:
I would guess that "troubleshooter" would work with this, but I do not know (canīt remember) if it requires more than two mouse buttons.

I will need to think about this. At the moment when the gun is pointed off-screen it sends no mouse data at all. Relistically it cant send data when off screen, otherwise the PC would be impossible to use because the gun would control the mouse at all times so the normal mouse would not work, it would be locked in position.
When off-screen it would still send the button signal if the trigger is defined as a gamepad button as opposed to mouse button.
AndyWarne:
I implemented a change which should work for off-screen reload. When off screen, the gun sends co-ords of (0,max) but only sends when the trigger is pulled, so that it does not interfere with the PC mouse when off-screen.
This will go in the first version as we wont be sending out any until Monday.

Andy,
This is fantastic - thank you so much for developing this!
One question. I have 2 Namco recoil guns I'm willing to convert. Any ideas on how the recoil function could be supported with something like this?
