Anyway? (About Shooting Games)
« on: November 09, 2005, 06:34:54 pm »
Well, I played Jurassic Park and noticed how impossible to play it was with arrow keys. Are all shooter games like this? If so, is there anyway to configure it to follow the mouse instead of arrow keys?

Um, well yes keys don't work well as a lightgun (they're digital).

Set 'lightgun_device         mouse' in mame.ini.

I think it may just have been because Jurassic Park uses a joystick.

How do you set to use the mouse in MAME32?
