GUN4IR (Lightgun)
I've tried games with the cursor, but with GUN4IR the cursor crashes. GUN4IR it uses a HID mouse. Does anyone know how to get it to work? Only games work (TROJAN).

Can I set the mouse cursor to follow the aiming crosshairs of the Trojan Phazer light weapon?

Cursor crashes?
You can't use absolute pointing device as a mouse. Ticking Virtual mouse driver in Ports panel may help but it won't work in any game that takes over the system. |

In the Mame emulator they solved it this way. At 13:27 there is a demo of T2 Arcade where the cross follows the light gun. Is it possible to do something similar with Winuae?

It can't be fixed because mousesends relative mouse positions ("mouse moved 5 pixels left") movements and lightpen/gun returns absolute position ("lightgen is at position 200*120")
Only solution is to emulate it like it is drawing tablet (which is absolute device and it is sort of supported by AmigaOS) but that can only work in system friendly programs. IO Ports panel "Virtual mouse driver" does that. Of course you can do game specific support patches but it is not trivial and not emulator's problem to solve. |
