Aimtrak now works with Playstation
« on: September 14, 2010, 09:15:49 am »
New firmware is available which enables the gun to work on a Playstation in addition to PC.

The gun works in Guncon 2 mode. It will automatically detect whether it is plugged into a PC or Playstation and switch accordingly. Calibration can be performed on the Playstation.

Note this is beta at present as we have only tested it on a PS2 with Time Crisis 3. Any feedback welcome.

Full details on http://www.ultimarc.com/aimtrak.html

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

It should work with PS3 but not tested it yet.

Will it work okay on an LCD TV with the picture stretched to 16:9?

Works great!
Is it possible to assign a button on the gun to pause? I only have Trigger and Aux hooked up, and (at least in Time Crisis 3) every button on the controller is a "pedal" button (even Start and Select) when the gun is hooked up.

Now who's going to be the first to build a pedal box?
