The more tame version is in the second photo, from Compute! magazine. The guy isn't fighting the cock monster from Cyber Lip. He's playing something else that I don't recognize.

You don't watch Game Sack? Joe is low key hilarious.

Man, its a shame to see that they still ship the joysticks oriented incorrectly by default.

Looks good otherwise- Do you have a link to the monitor you used for the marquee?

I am not sure why but with Virtua Cop 2 on the m2 emulator, it is like the buttons or tracking or something gets messed up for me.

I went into the gun calibrations and I can see it tracking perfectly there.

It seems to stem when I'm playing when I go to shoot offscreen to reload sometimes, and it doesn't actually reload.  Instead the revolver clip just kinda spins around with the bullets still in there.

And it stays in this weird state until I can get a real reload or something like that, and then the tracking works perfect when I'm shooting on screen again until I am out of bullets.

I have noticed that sometimes if I do a quick double trigger pull to reload offscreen that reload works but I can still get into this weird state.

Has anyone experienced this before?  I don't have this issue on either Virtua Cop 1 or House of the Dead.

Well, that was simultaneously the same exact ad (more tame?  ) and an extremely ---smurfing--- weird video.

Necrobump! I am excited to see what's come of this, that shape has me wondering what it's going to look like.

Alrighty!
I have managed to build the case and get the guns all set up.
Building is fine, I just hate the software side of this.

Already ran into a strange hurdle.. this one being that I launch the game using the aliens deshaped.ex.. I connect one gun to the pc
it says one gun detected and i can calibrate it and play. no problems.
if i connect two guns, the intro screen says 2 guns detected but when calibrating the left gun has no effect at all. only the right player works!
so i guess this has to be run through teknoparrot for 2 player.
maybe the exe has been messed with to make it compatible with a mouse, thus disabling the i.d of player 1s gun so that it passes the check but isnt enabled any further perhaps.

running it through teknoparrot using direct input seems to be all good, except the crosshairs wont go exactly to the edges of the screen, even after calibrating in both windows and in the game itself.
the crosshairs are also a bit glitchy/twitchy randomly in teknoparrot.
but at least player 1 (left) is working now

i have made a full audio mod for this game if anyone is interested changing almost all sfx and music and even all fmv files music and sfx to be more authentic to the movie

You can set up control via directinput in teknoparrot and both weapons will work. This method is also suitable for Far Cry

Yeah, so that’s Sharon Stone’s face shopped onto someone else’s body.  And nobody has ever proven that ad is real.

 

Joe from Game Sack YouTube channel showed off the original ad in a magazine. The model's name is Brandy Ledford. The segment is during the ending skit.



There was an alternate version with a more tame screenshot found in this Compute! Magazine from July 1991.

I am not trying to hate on anyone, but, maybe just buy a tankstick and your done.. While it does have 8 buttons.. maybe swap one of them out for a spinner or something.. They are made to be portable and many many people have dropped them into a Pedestal..

Just a thought,

All the best with your project!!

No hate taken from it...  It's a valid suggestion, but as I'm trying to do some other stuff like house the PC in it along with a larger external drive enclosure, some extra buttons and ports in the back, etc. I don't think it would work for me.
