Need the requirements for a Point Blank set up.(Monitor types.)
Brutal E:
Thinking about picking up a PCB and guns. Would like to know options for display. I have a CGA/EGA/YUV to VGA HD-Converter PCB and a LCD monitor to use but have been reading this is a no go. Would I need to by a monitor for this game. I know of the supergun and aimtrak for mame but I want to use the original board so I am guessing my options are limited.
Thank you for your time.

Since Point Blank uses cathode ray timing guns, I can certianly tell you that no form of non-CRT screen is going to work no matter what's used. It'll need a CRT monitor of some type at the very least.
Brutal E:
Thank you for the response. That is what I thought. This probably goes for most arcade gun games I would imagine.

I wish I could help you futher. I'm a huge Point Blank fan, but I cheated and went the Point Blank PSX + PlayStation II + Guncons + Sony Trinitron CRT TV route. :D

I play Point Blank on a normal 21" Samsung CRT monitor with my ACTLab's guns.
