Did you sit at the machine or stand up? How many players? Did the machine have any pedals? Were there any controls on the gun other than the trigger (pump, buttons on the sides, etc...)?

the game was 2 players, you stood up, and I believe there were no other controls on the sides(but I could be mistaken).

Technically a lot of gun games in arcades used an analog joystick with no auto centering. The top of the joystick just happened to be very big and shaped like a gun.M.A.M.E. supports using a mouse for aiming but that won't work for a second player on windows. An analog joystick (a flight stick is overkill but useable) will work but obviously it won't feel right. You are supposed to be able to set up two of these and have them work but I haven't tested them.http://www.hkems.com.../EMSTopGun2.htmhttp://www.play-asia...en-70-2vss.htmlDo note that they don't have any 64 bit drivers yet and there is no mention of Windows 7 being supported at all. I have an old pair of Act Labs light guns that worked great in the old days but of corse they weren't designed to work with LCDs so I can't use those anymore ;)If you REALLY feel hardcore you could grab an arcade cabinet wit positional guns and wire it to a PC.

you are so one step ahead of me on this XDthis is exactly what I was seeking out, guess i'll have to disregard my latest post(before this one that is)After all, when it comes to the games of old, I am a perfectionist! My DOS collection is just about finished, only a few finer details left to be completed, and its thanks to kind people like you that I am able to do so!Thanks again!
