ps2 lightgun question
« on: November 19, 2004, 10:05:17 am »
Ever since I got my namco guncon 2 's for my playstation 2 I was wondering why they wouldn't be able to work with a pc. They are usb and they would require you to use tv-out. But I'm sure they would need some kind of driver to make them work with windows or any game for that matter. I don't really know much about it, which is why im posting. Would it be possible to use this in windows if there was a driver for it? Also could a generic lightgun driver work for these lightguns and where would I find one?

The ps2 guncon2 guns will work on a computer with tv-out. all that is needed is a windows driver. however, this is not such a far-off thing, as someone (http://mywebpages.comcast.net/bgoines78/) has already made a working guncon2 driver for linux. any WDM gurus here who can use this as reference for a wndows driver?

ps. sorry for the small threadmine, i didn't want to start a new one.
