How To Best Hook Up a Guncon 2 To My Setup? Please Help!

[Goatz18]

I just received two Scorpion3's and have them connected to my PC via USB and to the PSU for extra power.

Only problem is that my video card outputs in DVI, S-Video, and VGA. Where do I connect the yellow composite video connections of the Scorpions? The TV that I connect my PC to doesn't have a video out. I use the S-Video out to connect to the TV. My video card does allow for two outputs at once, I hooked up a CRT monitor via VGA as well as the TV via S-Video before and it clones the image to the secondary monitor.

I have read that you can use a VGA to S-Video and RCA cable as long as your video card supports TV out, but since I already use the main S-Video out to a TV, would it work to do video out of the VGA for a monitor if the TV out S-Video is already connected?

Are there even other possibilities that I am not thinking of? Someone please help? Thanks.

Nothing else even compares!

Why doesn't Ultimarc sell the thing already in a gun as well? Some of us aren't Tim the Tool Man.

I think it'd be a lot easier to split the s-video signal and then put an S-Video->Composite adaptor on one for the Guncons and feed the other to the TV.

They are working on one, but installing the aimtrak is VERY easy.

Now if only more of you would mail me your Guncon guts after canibalizing them, I could repair some actual guncons.

I killed a SNES Justifier for mine.

There isn't really much of the guts left over as most of them are used along with the Aimtrak.  All that I've had left over is the barrels with the lens and the actual sensor that's cut off the main board to allow the Aimtrak to fit.  Everything else contains the buttons and wires from the Aimtrak are soldered to the existing button pads.

One of my Guncon 1s has a fray somewhere in the video passthough cable, a fray that seems to be INSIDE the PlayStation connector port.  It really can't be disassembled there to repair.  The cables from a gutten Guncon would get this gun back in operation just fine.
