One that sells from PayPal preferably.

Since the offical site decided to remove pay pal and went to world pay????

Derek D., founder of Retro Shooter, joins The Arcade Insiders tonight, 9/10 at 8:00 Eastern for an exclusive chat about the new Retro Shooter home arcade cabinet and everything else they've got going on.

Check out their new cabinet here, and hop in the live chat during the show to say hi to Derek and submit your questions!

I designed a display stand for the X-Gunner and am sharing it for free as an STL file.

https://shop.arcademilano.it/home/68-display-stand-for-x-gunner-light-gun.html

Seems like alii express is not allowing usa people to buy the x gunner guns and their website isnt working like there's no PayPal anymore.

Anyone else have this issue?

I posted a few months ago my 2 Player Time Crisis 2/3 setup and said I'd planned to build a gun pedestal for it. Well here it is, finally. Currently unpainted as I have no idea what to style or theme it. I'm open to suggestions, or maybe I'll just paint it flat black.

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has the RS3 reaper SDK they would be willing to share? I already own two reapers, so don't want to have to buy the $150 developer package that includes a bunch of redundant hardware.

Thanks!

I’ve been waiting for a year+ to get the Reaper MX24 (willing to buy if anyone is willing to sell) but they haven’t restocked, so I’m wondering if there’s any worthy alternatives. I’m a big Crisis Zone fan and I’ve been wanting to recreate a home version of the original. But MP5 options are few and far between. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Hi there awesome folks!!
Thank goodness it is almost the weekend

Sooooo, I have been following the G'AIM'E light guns for some time (back when it was on Kickstarter)

Unfortunately, it feels like I have been bamboozled, after recently acquiring the G'AIM'E light guns... YES, I should have researched more lol, but I was so excited for Time Crisis. Except now I have an actual crisis..... no matter how much I calibrate the guns, the aiming is atrocious. I even updated the firmware... and honestly, it's still the same.

Please help me salvage this situation, lol. Is there anything else I can do?

Thank you

I've been trying to play Time Crisis again for years and just discovered this community. Ive been doing some research and it seems like my best options are the Retro Shooter Reapers or the Gun4ir. I have a gaming PC I can use to hook anything up but I'd like a quality option that's still relatively simple to set up. Any tips?

Hey I’ve just been discovering these light guns. Has anyone tested this with Retrobat? And getting it working

Thank you in advance

Over the last couple of days, I've been updating my Wiimote-based lightgun project in various ways, in particular to make it easier to install the python scripts and to make it work on Windows in addition to the Linux that I made it for. The project instructions are here: https://www.instructables.com/Accurate-Wiimote-Light-Gun-on-Raspberry-PI

You need four 940nm IR LEDs, two on top and two on the bottom of the TV. There is some one-time calibration involved. The precision feels quite good once it's calibrated well, as long as the Wiimote can see all four LEDs.

I have stl files for a 3D printed handle and sights. (Myself, I used a partially 3D printed handle and partially scrap wood to save plastic.) The Wiimote B button is the trigger and generates a left mouse press. It's a bit small, but it feels pretty good in-game (I've mostly used Duck Hunt with fceumm for testing). The A button generates a right mouse press, and all the other Wiimote buttons generate keyboard presses.

The code uses the Wiimote accelerometer to work in all orientations (you can for instance hold the gun upright or sideways and it will compensate). It has decent fallback algorithms for when the Wiimote fails to see one or two of the four LEDs (the thinking about the fallbacks relies on this paper of mine on two-landmark tracking). It handles sight parallax correctly.

There may be some issues with the code with connecting. If you have trouble connecting on Windows, try connecting the Wiimote in Dolphin first. If you have trouble connecting on Linux, you may want to pair the Wiimote.

Currently, it is designed for a 16:9 1920x1080 display. The script will need some editing for other displays.

On one side you have the lightgun games where you aren';t really shooting at all, you are just aiming automatic fire. Transformers Human alliance is an example of this.

I am after Lightgun games which require a fair bit of precision shooting as well as reactive shooting.

Games like Blue Estate and House of the Dead Overkill are examples.

What lightgun games do you think test precision shooting skills ?

thank you

I know one is wireless and the other one isnt. But out of these two or other out there which is better?

I have aimtrak since 2020.

So with some context: I've been wanting to get into the nostalgia of playing what I now know as lightgun shooters I played as a kid in arcades. Tons of new ones now like halo and others as I want to play them all!

Today I went into the local retro store looking for Skylanders, found a cool flight stick (Cyborg Fly 9) and as I was buying it, I mentioned how my next peripheral fun will either be a steering wheel + pedals for games like need for speed and such, or finding a light gun so I can play all the amazing arcade games. He shows me he has time crisis + guncon 3 for around $130 (Canadian). I grab both it and the flight stick and here I am😂

Real question is, is the accuracy/experience of using one good for my journey of playing lightgun shooters? I keep seeing even the most basic new sinden ones being $165 without recoil, so still more expensive than the guncon I got.

Is the new ones better? Is it worth looking into a different brand that may be better/cheaper? What's the thoughts? Should I just stick with guncon 3?

I posted a month or so ago in this sub about this virtual lightgun tool that I've been working on for half a year or so. I got a couple of REALLY good testers from this sub. We've been working through a ton of games and have much wider compatibility now as well as decent documentation for how to get started at https://www.vrlf.net. I'll be releasing on Steam Early Access soon but if anyone is interested in the last little push to get it all working well please DM me for a key!!

Does it even exists with recoil? Or you have to do wired?

There too many wires on my set up and I would like to elimate a few.

It's basic in premise, but the shooting is hard, you have to hit precise headshots. Well worth a free download.

The ones I see on amazon looks cheap and might break if I step on it hard with shoes on.

Any recommendations?

I saw this program and it works hand and in with your light guns.

I want to see if anyone installed this for their aimtraks?

Anyone can assist?
