I don't see this option(set the zapper port)

Instead of pressing A, select the game(Duck Hunt) with the X button to bring up the 'Game configuration' screen.

what do i need to do to get my madcatz gun to work with fceultra (duckhunt and operation wolf)? i cant figure it out. i cant even navigate the menus with it.

are you supposed to be able to navigate through dashboard menus and such with the madcatz gun? im wondering if this is just a bad gun, i bought it used from EB games

ok im gonna take the gun back and get a new one

It may be a bad gun. You should be able to navigate in dashboards and emulator menu's.

The guy Mut3, on the first page of this thread, had a problem with his new gun. They soldered it badly and it shorted.

well this is the 2nd one that ive had which does nothing. do some bioses not support light guns or do you just think i got unlucky with the 2 (used) light guns i have bought. (both from the same store)

standard 60hz NTSC TV using High Definition Pack

using Mad Catz Blaster

has worked in everything so far... Silent Scope Complete, Starsky and Hutch, HOD3, Snes9x, FCEUltra, SMSplus, etc..

its a little flakey tho.. it seems to have some dead spots on my tv where it doesnt aim, but that could be my gun messin up...

His Mad Catz works.

I cant believe you had that much bad luck. I guess you tried it in every control port?

yep. im wondering if the reason they were at the store used is because they stopped workin so people sold em back to EB games. a new one is like 5 dollars more...im gonna test this gun on another xbox and if that doesnt work ill just buy a new one i guess...

ok...i have had 4 of these now. the first 2 i know were the guns themselves...the 2nd 2 have been brand new and all the buttons work(i am able to navigate dashboard and in-game menus) but when playing house of the dead 3, it gets to the calibration screen and just sits there and says that make sure your controller is plugged into the controller port. i have not modified the yellow wires for my controller ports. i have the X2 bios. i have done the RF power on mod. that is pretty much it other than HD swap but i dont think that would have anything to do with it. would any of those mods have anything to do with the gun not working?

thought I add my experiences
Ereal Games G1 light gun
sony 42we655 42" LCD hdtv (using component cables)

House of Dead 3 - works good, very accurate if calibrated properly

haven't had a chance to try out emus yet, but if anyone wants to know if this gun works with a paticular title, let me know, I'll try it out.

Anyone else have any experience with these Ereal games G1 guns? They look really slick and the perfect solution for my 100" front projection screen. I was wondering how they did with MAME/fce. House of the Dead 3 is the only certified game on Xbox and kpone never posted an update from the Ereal guys.

been playing around with the bio blaster with MAMEOX..

i tried one game it has severe problems with the DEFAULT settings in the game called zombie raid...for starters if you load up the config menu and choose ANALOG CONTROLS you should see something along this..

joykey speed...15%....change it to 125
gun sensivity...25%....change it to 125%
reverse on ...turn this OFF..Very imporat if left on default the aim will be screwy regardles of CALI..
joykey speed...15%...change it to 125
gun sensitivity...25%..change it to 125%
reverse off..leave this alone!!

what we wanna do now is turn OFF Cross hairs via the main config menu i have mine my mapped to the Xbutton..

now go to controls this GAME ONLY via the config menu..

now map the B.button to the green trigger under the main trigger this will now be REload...now map the start
to the black trigger under the bioblaster handle..

now exit the menu and watch as the bio blaster is very close if not perfect with aiming and the speed is very apparent compared to the DEFAUT settings..

i hope this was helpful....btw i have only had my gun for approx 2 hours it took 1 hour to figure this out now i am playing zombie raid with 2 light guns that work great!!

another thing i should mention is that brightness should NOT play a factor at all with mameox because i turned it up and turned it down seen no difference whatsoever until messing with the speed and sensitivity settings..

and for the love of god PLEASE put something in front of the gun when configuring the bio blaster if you dont do that your in for an unpleasant surprise... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grr.gif)

gun: madcatz blaster (2 of them)
tv: OLD goldstar (now known as LG) sorry don't know what hertz it is.. should i assume 60hz? NTSC

games for xbox: hotd3 works no problems (also used a bigger, newer RCA tv with no probs) for both guns at the same time.

mameox: operation wolf (rocks btw), alien-the gun (SIMULTANEOUS 2P ACTION!!!), and egg venture seem to work perfectly

police trainer, and zombie raid work so-so, definitely a bit annoying but playable..

lucky and wild, terminator 2, golly! ghost don't work at all...

area51? lethal enforcers? i've been told these won't work on xbox.. have peeps here gotten them to work??

all FCE games i've tried work well..

now for my gripe..........XSNESX
i can't get ANY games to use the light gun at all.. i'm yanking my hair out because there is a "configure light gun" option, but no way the gun can actually be configured.. the screen registers the gun, but i can't change the screen mode or "calibrate" as it says, by pushing the X button.. nor can i "change resolution" by pressing Y.. WHAT THE FUGGGG?

?? is there some big secret i'm missing? because as lame as it is, it would be pretty fun to be able to at least play T2 arcade on SNES if not MAMEoX....

any help would be appreciated..

also always on the lookout for new MAME games that work well with mameox on the xbox..

genesis? was there a gun?

I am having the exact same problem as the person above this. I have obviously searched for a solution to this since im bringing back a topic from 2005.

Im using FCE and it works fine, also HOD3. I am using the Boss battle light guns.

has anyone found a solution to this?

//below is post Im talking about, I have the same problem but dont feel like retyping it.
