2 Lightguns Soooo Close

(1/2) > >>

neomatrix:
I am running Win XP Sp2, latest MAME and trying to get 2 Act-Labs TV Out USB Lightguns to work. Installed Toubleshooter and CPNMouse drivers for Dual mice.
Changed MAME.INI to Lightgun_1 and Dual Lightgun_1.
Both Guns work as mice in Windows
Tried House of the Dead 2... 2nd gun trigger registers as Pause game. In Mame Police Trainer... 2nd gun moves the 2nd cusor with trigger press but no shot is registered in the game.
Any help would be appreciated

Farmboy90:
I am interested to find out if you got any emails or any other information that may have solved your problem.

Are things working now?  If so, how did you do it?

Doc-:
I have this working under noname mame with the dual mice option.  Unfortunately I'm running an old version (0.86)  to do this.  It has a "-multimousexp" command line option that lets you map multiple mice (lightguns) properly including the buttons.

I have not yet found a good version of current MAME to support both lightguns, so I just run both versions of MAME (new MAME 0.101 and also noname MAME 0.86) in separate directories and have them on two separate menus under MAMEWAH.  I use the old version for dual-lightgun games and the newer version for most of my other games.

Doc-

Sensei:
I too have tried everything under the sun that has been discussed in the forums.

I'm using dual ACT-Labs USB Tv-Out lightguns.

I've tried the Troubleshooter
I've tried the dual mouse drivers

The closest I've come is that the second lightgun either moves the cursor with the second gun switch set to gun#2
OR
If the second gun switch is set to gun#1 then both gun 1 and 2 work but all the hits (and hence score) go under player 1.

So while 2 people can have fun blasting at zombies in Area51 only player 1 looks like they're doing great while player 2 always has 0% hits.
(not so fun for player 2)

This has been the same all through the different versions of Mame32 for me (I've currently stalled at .98)

Anybody having luck......please post your fix!

Please!

(thanks in advance)

Is there software to remap the moude buttons? I believe that is all I need to do.
