      @Folly nice i will do that!
      i want to mention the Sinden guys have a hack version of lr-mame
      the install is called " lr-mame-StormedBubbles"
      they also have a few hack versions of other mame and mess
      the install plays 3 "plug and play" light gun games

      Mission: Paintball Powered Up (pballpup) - Perfect accuracy correction. Needs "Boot from CLI" enabled in core options.
      Star Wars: Clone Trooper Blaster Game (swclone) - Perfect accuracy correction. Needs "Boot from CLI" enabled in core options.
      Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant & Monster Mayhem (tmntmutm) - Perfect accuracy correction

      of course this version of mame launches more than 3 games
      but figured I'd mention it since these are plug and plays and maybe it could open more doors?

      Do you want them to be added to category all_in1 ?
      I think a non-arcade lightgun category is more appropriate, don't you think ? (is not yet there but can be created in add-systems-mamedev)
      We can already sort on lightgun in the database and there are probably more similar games.
      Another problem is that automating a category becomes more difficult because it becomes a compilation of quite some different stuff.
      That means obviously more manual editing a category.
      This is probably not the route to take.

      What do you both think @Retrodade @DTEAM ?

        @Folly yeah, I know what you mean.
        they put them in its own category of "plug n play"
        they are like jakks I guess? I have mine in arcade since its not LCD and I think 1 or 2 were tiger, I forget the other, thought it said Jakks, but no title load screen on one I believe, but the net search just shown a gun to plug into the TV
        I'm just passing the info since they are plug n plays
        but where they belong? that's a good question.
        put them where you feel is best

        I don't own a sinden, but their custom versions of Mame have great accuracy for light guns

            Hi Folly, are you able to run tsimquest.zip or 7z (Tiger - Castlevania Simon's Quest). I'm not able for now !

            You can update the binary, it's now 250.
            The game works.

                Hi , I took a look and it's fine. They are "plug n play" and they were commercialized. @Folly, I think we could add them to "all in one", what do you think?

                        Some that will be available in 251.
                        I see you are already working in the future ;-)
                        Perfect.

                          nice I been working on scrapes for myself on odd systems, felt i could get caught up on handhelds. I made these but no video (something at least) anyways you probably have everything all done but ill share mine in case the two I had no luck in finding here are my handheld scrapes I managed to do (maybe this can help )

                            If you want to participate to our effort to create gamelist and "scrapes", go here . It's the the thread associate to our project for that. You'll find what we already done and our folder structure here.

                              @DTEAM thanks! will take a look
                              I checked quick I did a few systems running mame/mess you don't have scrapes for, like Gameking and Sord M5 and a few others that I made myself...not sure if my style would interest everyone but, I'd be glad to share if there is an interest
                              if not that's ok too

                              I will check out your list deeper thanks

                                  @DTEAM I stumbled across these that worked

                                  mc_hh210.zip
                                  mc_105te.zip
                                  mc_110cb.zip
                                  mc_sp69.zip

                                  3 worked in mame-autoskip , 1 was in mess
                                  seemed like multi plug n plays and a handheld

                                  not sure if this is useful info, or maybe u have them included already?
                                  anyways I didn't see them in your list so figured I'd mention.

                                            @DTEAM well, now you got me thinking, lol you probably have them then but mine worked and I had no scrapes from them, so I assume sine i grabbed your gamelist and they aren't on that gamelist.
                                            I decided to make these scrapes.. you can get the zip name from the game list text to add to a gamelist. here is the added text and the scrapes including video - let me know if these are "new working"
