Mute64 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Ok so I want to play some classics like time crisis 2 and house of the dead but I want to use a gun... can someone recommend a gun to buy/use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullPointer Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Bear in mind that this recommendation is based purely on reputation, but I've heard nothing but good things about the Ultimarc AimTrak. Andy Warne, who is the proprietor of Ultimarc, has a great reputation for positive customer service. I could be wrong, but I think Stigzler might use an AimTrak on his cabnet?

stigzler Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 You rang?Yes, the Aimtraks are good - act essentially as a mouse, but can also be put into "guncon mode" for psx titles.However, a word to the wise.... LG games are an absolute PITA to set up!! Been battling on and off for months now, and as soon as you get one thing set-up, emulator/windows updates can easily wreck it. Only attempt if yer a patient man (which I'm not). Having said that, it's a real buzz when games do work briefly. Had HOD3 PC running successfully for a while and oh yeah - that's what I made a cab for! Then the setup broke!If yer braving the path, brother, then guide no how to make 2 LGs cheaply:https://sites.google.com/site/alienarcade74/sub-projects/lightguns-buildI think Thurman on here is the pro, though - looks like he's successfully set up a number of systems...Good luck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mute64 Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 Cool thanx.. yea im looking at purchasing the aimtrak's there's a store in the eastern states in AU that sell them, rather than paying an arm n a leg for international shipping. Will probly be playing time crisis and vampire hunter with them, untill I get venturous and try out other games.Thanx for your feedback tho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tthurman Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 stigzler's setup runs about everything short of the Boston marathon, and given he has struggled with these is enough to concern me, but as he mentioned thurmansevolution has posted some good info on resolving some of the problems. I've been following it, but honestly it's a bit over my head. Perhaps some collaborated effort is all that is needed to get over the hump.

uberpubert69 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 There is supposed to be a way you can make one out of a Wiimote but its complicated and I've never got it set up myself. You require a bluetooth receiver though to connect your Wiimote to your PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigzler Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Just got 'em working with MAME and very worth it!

MNMax21 Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 +1 for Ultimarc aimtrac light guns and +1 for Andy Warne and his customer service. Very willing to help out with questions or issues.I have two aimtrac light guns and they work great. I had some issues at first, but it was completely my fault. When you are setting them up, you can only have one connected at a time. They mess with each other otherwise. Once they're setup, you can have both connected and working.I didn't realize time crisis was working in MAME. Is that a recent development?

Once I calibrated it via the test menu for Lethal Enforcers I was able to use the WiiMote without a ton of effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
