Title: Do you have working guncon2 lightguns (with newer mame)?
Post by: mattorama on November 22, 2007, 10:47:16 am
Does anybody have a working guncon2 setup using a newer version of mame?
I cannot get it to work with mame 119, wingun or smog's driver.
It tracks nicely, but when shooting it flashes without registering the shot.

I have a suspicion that the available drivers and mame are now incompatible.

I did setup mame.ini with the standard lightgun 1, lightgun_device stuff.

If your setup works...


Any help is greatly appreciated?

Does anyone know if wingun or smog's driver are even being supported anymore?

If not, I'm wondering if guncon2's and mame should be considered incompatible.

I still have not been able to get the latest mame to work, nor have I heard from anybody that has it working.

Two LCDTopGuns (compatible guncon2) with lastest Smog drivers works perfectly with the lates versions of mame (0.119, 0.120, 0.121).

Put lightgun=1 and lightgun_device lightgun is redundant. Use only Lightgun_device lightgun. Well, maybe you could use lightgun=1 if you want to play games like Terminator 2 with the guns.

Be sure that the mapped button to fire is something like Gun_??? (sorry, I don't remember now the correct spelling.

Thanks for the response.

I noticed that smog has put in support for the LCDTopGuns.

 I couldn't get smogs driver to work with regular (orange) guncon2 guns. What happened to the calibrate button?

I'll try again.

Thanks!
