Aimtrak gun mame issue acting as gun and mouse.

[Justn]

Heys guys i have a question. I set up my gun in windows and i did find lots of info on the forums so i did the required steps in mame.ini and such. When i set the in game controls inside mame i shows my gun as both gun1 and mouse1 is that normal? For example im setting the gun x/y axis it comes up as lightgun x axis = "gun1 x" or "mouse1 x" same for trigger: gun1 button 0 or mouse1 button 0. I didnt think it was a big deal but games that have off screen reload seems to have issues. When i click off screen i get a windows "ding" sound and mame loses focus and im forced to shoot the trigger a few times at the screen to regain focus and im still unable to reload my gun. Any ideas guys?

No they usually just shot as gun.
Have you got your gun set as mouse in mame?

In mameui I went the default controls menu and set lightgun from mouse to lightgun. After that i went to mame.ini to confirm the changes and it shows lightgun_device lightgun. Also set lightgun from 0 to 1 Not sure whats going on with it. I use a trackball as well so i have mouse set to 1 in mame.ini. could that cause an issue or am i missing something?

Change it back to mouse maybe see if that works?
I dont use mameui.

I use a trackball, spinner n 2 guns with no probs

Ok i changed that now it shows up as a mouse only in the in game mame controls but still getting the issue with reloading it plays a windows ding sound and loses focus amd doesn't reload. Maybe i should remove the guns and reset mame controls and try again from scratch ?
