Nice job. I'm glad someone's using my hack. :)

I added a button to the gun so you can switch the interface between 3 modes:
* Semi-automatic: recoils once per trigger pull
* Fully-automatic: recoils continuously as long as you hold the trigger down
* Mame-controlled: recoils when the CAPS lock is activated; this currently only works with Dave's Terminator 2 hack
Using semi and fully modes you can play most gun games, and hopefully, there will be more CAPS lock hacks for games that have limited ammo or the guns that overheat. Currently, I'm enjoying playing Crossbow in semi-automatic mode. It's fun shooting up the medieval village up with an Uzi.

At one time I was thinking of a cheat.dat type system where it could pull values out of ram for any game to run the recoil, but I don't really do much with mame anymore. I haven't turned my mame cab on in probably 3 years. I'm pretty much exclusively working with real hardware now. Coincidentally I've been playing mostly the 440 shooters lately too. Crackshot and Chiller mostly.

What I think you are more likely to see is adaptations of the Light Signal Engine (LSE) and MikeQ's work with the LED-Wiz to enable an LED channel at certain game points, which you could use to send signals to your gun. It's been hinted at in the LSE and LED-Wiz threads. . .

Ditto (well, I'd have one anyway).
Great stuff :)
