If you enable it, you cannot fire a grenade in UnderFire, for example. Even more, it must not be used with that guns. No needed the Offscreen reload activated. LCDTopGun is able to do a real shootoffscreen reload. Only problems with the remap of button, but I think this is because a bad configuration of Smog driver. Even tracks a LCDTopGun and ActLabs gun combination. You can't imagine how relieved I feel now that I don't have to go through that work to update that part of analog+. So it's more of a private/deriv thing than official mame, IMO.Īnd again Derrick, thank you very much for making the multiple mice/lightguns changes. But my idea would use a current but depreciating -option (-lightgun), and complicate supporting users since you wouldn't enable -lightgun if you want mulitple lightguns (dual could go either way). If Howard is so set it the old way, I think adding/changing a half dozen "if" statements will let him have what he wants (about lightguns) without taking away what I and others want. The new code bypasses the above problems.
Mame's old lightgun code, as documented by the writer, was forced to use an API NOT wanted to use (win32 vs directInput), which has limitations (can't run in window, etc), led to further hacks (actlab's "dual player" support, etc), and didn't show other hidden problems (no 3+ lightgun support, ect).
Summer is coming and people can wait to bash my ideas until next year. Personally I have now tired of the whole matter. I am not adding -switches to complicate things. The options now are to keep the changes in or go back to the old 104u4 and below functionality. I now publically offer to remove my current changes. I would think that independently tracking guns is better then the old way, but others (well 1 vocal person) seems to think that it is a bad idea to have 2 or more guns tracking in real time. In the meantime, Smog's driver should work. The new support allows you to use more then 2 lightguns.ĮMS has said they are working on a proper driver but it will take time. And the answer everyone said was that they would use the new support instead and they did not see a reason to keep the old support. I can go back and re-add the -lightgun support and keep the new support, if you would like.īut I asked here first if it would bother anyone if I removed the old support and added proper multiple lightgun support.
