Blaster/lightgun & Meme/emu
« on: August 05, 2010, 05:37:00 PM »

I have used mine on Duck Hunt in FCE Ultra X with no problems. I can't speak on any other emu's as I haven't tried them.

EDIT: Altho now I cannot seem to get either of mine to work on my CRT VGA monitor. Before, I was using a TV. They don't want to calibrate correctly.

I have two of the mad catz light guns and they don't calibrate very well on my tvs.  I have an rca and a magnavox.  There are trouble areas on my rca tv where the light gun can't aim at.  Maybe other tvs work fine with the guns, but mine do not.  As for the emulators, I suggest that you try the latest madmab editions.  Many of the emulators have gotten a huge overhaul thanks to madmab.   cool.gif

Hi Xmodder deluX, thanks for giving us your experience. I live in Ireland/Europe and it's not clear to me what you mean when you say Magnavox but I assume you're talking about a old Cathode Ray Tv.

I've heard that flatter CRT screens can cause this problem with certain parts of the screen not registering hits.
would you say your Magnavox is mostly flat or curved?
If you can think of the model number I'd love to hear it.

I'll post my pics of my BEKO TV when I get back home next week. It'd be nice to get an understanding of what type of screen is needed to get these guns working properly.

I really wanna play Lethal Enforcers, and beast buster and operation wolf on my xbox.

Oh, and I'll check those madmab emus out when I get a chance!

I have always had the issue with my light guns not being able to aim at the far right of the screen (the entire right edge) in the house of the dead games. I always though it was just a game issue because I have played the game on at least 2 different TV's, using my 2 lightguns.

Also, I prefer FCE because I like to make my own cheat codes. This important (to me) feature seems to have been removed in madmab emus. They look cool tho.

Madcatz. I don't remember the TV I had back then. The TV I have now is projection screen so I can't try it on that one. I have a 13" Sylvania TV that I could try it on tho.

Thanks again guys, I'm gonna hold off on buying the guns until I get myself set up with a 750gig IDE. I will keep you posted though. smile.gif
