Hi folks. Like I´ve explaned on TIME CRISIS´S Topic, I Need to know, (if possible, what pistol games are emulated on MAME). I know only Operation Wolf, what else? He wants to build a cabinet with pistol, but he needs to know these roms. And I´m forbidden to use Marp or another game sites to research. Can help me? thanks.

hahahahahaha. I´m not so good in these games, Hunter.

And this is for one friend, not for me. I don´t know how it´s possible connect a pistol to work on mame...
P.S. please guys, help me. I don´t know NOTHING about pistol games. What names of another ones, forgeting OPERATION WOLF?

You can download the Win32 version of MAME 0.66 and get a list from there. One the menu on the left side, select "Genre" then select "Light Gun". You'll then have a list of all the light-gun based games as of MAME 0.66, or just go to the link below
As for the lightgun issue...
http://www.act-labs.com/gun_mamegames.htm
ACT-Labs has a PC-compliant lightgun that works with MAME, and works on PC screens. Dunno if any other manufacturers distribute any USB/PC-compatible lightguns...
Using the PSX's Namco GunCon/GunCon2 or would require you to hook up your PC to a TV or TV-type monitor, via the composite video output on your video card. (It would also require a PSX adapter of course

) I've tried this before and it worked alright, but let's face it...the only true way to play Point Blank is on a big-screen..
Probably something else that's worth mentioning (but probably isn't) is that some games that use lightguns in MAME don't use them in the arcade versions (i.e.: Terminator 2 and Revolution X...these games used mounted rifle thingeys on the machine itself, with the targeting done buy a pair of analog inputs as opposed to light-reading)
Hope that helps.

Hello
I know some pistol games emulate by mame, or games as Crosbow whor aren't a pistol but a crossbpw game, but it the same.
There is Point Blank and Zero Point, many old games by Exidy. And I'm sure there are others I can't remember.
