r/lightgunshooters

I tried to dl some software and I can't get it to work. Anyone know where to get a good drive with light gun game preinstalled. For a price that won't make me cry. I about to order a set of Retro shooter reapers and need games to play.

I dont have a PS5 and I read the news that it was released on the system with gyro controls.

Did anyone here try? You hold the dualsense sideways? Any thoughts?

Anybody here have a fave light gun console game?

Stuff was was console first (HOTD Overkill, Umbrella Chronicles, Deadspace Extraction, etc) and stuff that was ported over to console later on (Time Crisis 4, Ninja Assault, etc) both count.

Hey guys, I picked up a Gun Con 3 the other day for £10, I made some sensors and installed the windows drivers and calibrated it and that all seems to work ok.

My PC is fairly pathetic HP Prodesk i5-10505 with 16 gigawatts of RAM, no GPU.

Originally wanted to try and play PS3 Time Crisis on it 4 to show the kids about these olf lightgun games, however having no joy getting the gun to work in RPCS3 despite following a few guides. So what are my best budget friendly options to have a bit of a play with it without spending too much.

I’m trying to get gunmote and my dolphin bar to work correctly. Every time I connect to the bar it registers it as an hid compliant game controller and shows up as an unknown device in teknoparrot. Anyone experienced this before? I’m using windows 11 on an Alienware aurora r12. I’ve disabled the Bluetooth driver in the machine to ensure the Wii remote is connecting through dolphin bar not the windows Bluetooth. I’ve also made sure I’m in mode 4 and using a genuine Wii remote.

Hi everyone. I am developing the advanced ESP32-S3 port of the OpenFIRE firmware. The primary goal of this project is to cut the cord completely, providing a native wireless lightgun experience via ESP-NOW while maintaining the exact real-time responsiveness of a direct USB connection.

I have just released **v6.2-beta2**, and the code is now 100% feature-complete across the entire ecosystem (Lightgun, Dongle, and wireless Pedal).

**What to expect in this release:**

* **Refined IR Tracking:** We integrated deep anti-jitter techniques and better rotation handling. You will notice much smoother cursor behavior and rock-solid precision, even near the edges of the screen.

* **True Wireless Freedom:** Highly optimized ESP-NOW protocol for zero-lag communication.

**Call for Testing:**

Before labeling this as our final Stable release, I need your help to stress-test it in real-world scenarios. While the protocol is optimized, ESP-NOW operates on the 2.4GHz band. I want to gather feedback on how the system behaves in real homes, especially in environments with heavy Wi-Fi interference.

You can find all the technical details, installation instructions, and download links in the official GitHub Issue here:

https://github.com/alessandro-satanassi/OpenFIRE-Firmware-ESP32/issues/13

**Hardware Project:**

If you want to build a fully battery-powered wireless lightgun utilizing this firmware, you will also find the link to the **PICON-AS** open-source hardware project inside the release notes.

Thanks for your help, looking forward to your feedback on GitHub!

I know the reapers are supposed to be a significant upgrade from the sindens but are there any issues with the reapers I should know ahead of time.

what are other peoples experience with the reapers good and bad

I paid for them yesterday so hopefully they will be with me by friday

I didn’t know tech, but I like to play shooting games from my childhood. I’m looking for something that I plug on electricity, pick a game and start shooting

Could you please recomend me some bundle ?

Thanks

I've been wanting to buy them, but at 300 usd plus importing them to my country I want to make sure of something. I plan to buy them just for nostalgia, when I was around 10 years old I remember playing Lost world jurassic park and house of the dead 1 and 2, there were no crosshairs and I could easily shoot everything.

But today, looking for youtube videos of these guns every single person uses crosshairs for some reason? , even noticied the crosshair glitching sometimes. It felt off for me, what I wonder is, can someone who tested both tell me are these guns as accurate, as low latency, and as fast as the old arcades were? or its just a "gets the job " done but the old technology was far superior due to crts etc?

i plan to use them on a 50" led tv, nothing fancy, and about 1.5 metres away

with retroshooter reapers what's the easiest way to play the classic duck hunt? my wife wants this game. Using a PC with windows.

Hi all, new to this group. I’m currently looking for 2 - Retro shooter mx24. does anyone have a pair for sell or can point me in the e direction to make a purchase? thank you for any solid help that can be provided .

4 bars of led's, one in each corner. I'm sure it's probably fine while playing lightgun games but looks like if you were playing other games on the arcade cab with them those led's / sensors would get annoying, am I wrong? debating on getting 2 of them.

Hello, I cannot get my wiimote to work fully with Teknoparrot gun games, the buttons work fine but the aim movement doesn't move at all.I also use Gunmote.
