MAME Tutorial - How To Set Up Light Gun Controls for the Mouse || MAME Emulator How To
58Welcome on down to another MAME Tutorial! Today we're going to go over how to set up Light Gun controls for the mouse. We haven't had the chance to get our mitts on any PC Light Gun peripherals (Like AIM TRAK), but rest assured, once we get one, we'll dissect the ins-and-outs and post a follow up!
Setting up the light gun controls for MAME isn't incredibly difficult - you just need to make sure you tick the right check boxes and go through your controls to make sure everything is set upright. Past that, the controls are pretty simple - set up your X and Y axis, and the shoot button. Some games, like CarnEvil, will have a button to simulate the shotgun pump or special ability, so just map that to the right button or whatever you're comfortable with.
I'll also be going over some other things too, such as how to adjust the speed your cursor moves, and how to get dual mice support so you can shoot up bad guys with a friend without making them play with a keyboard or controller (oof!). I won't be going over how to set it up for the keyboard or controller, as there's pretty much no reason to use them when the mouse is SO much better. If you do, don't use an analog joystick unless you REALLY want to spend time tinkering with fine-tuning the controls. Trust me.
I won't be going too in-depth about troubleshooting (hah!) what happens if your gun's aim is off aside from a general overview. Most likely I'll make individual videos for each game to show off the operator menu and note any special things I've noticed like shots pulling off or lagging even if you've set things up right.
As always remember to leave a comment, insert a like, and subscribe for more! There are definitely more control tutorials on the way and if there's a game that's been stumping you control-wise let us know! We love to try to figure this stuff out so we can help y'all get into the game!
