Advmame issue with generate quad and generate triple message

bigsethi

Hey guys, I searched the forums as best as I could and couldn’t find any other topic about this.

I recently built an arcade cabinet and I have 4 joysticks and 2 aimtrak light guns. I have been using advmame 1.4 to emulate my gun games and work with the aimtrak light guns. I got everything set and got the controls figured for my light gun games. As far as I can tell everything is working flawlessly with the exception of a message I get in the center of the screen that says, “generate quad” & “generate triple”. This message only pops up when I am using one of the light guns. If I am using the other light gun then I get no message. I am wondering if I maybe have something set up incorrectly. This “generate quad” & “generate triple” pop up randomly in the center of the screen. Like I said, it does not effect gameplay or the controls as far as I can tell. It’s just annoying.

Wondering if anybody has ever had this message and if there is a way I can get it to disappear.

Pi Model or other hardware: B+
Power Supply used: Cana-kit 5v output
RetroPie Version Used: 4.4
Built From: I am using the regalad & wdg built image that already has gun config built in. (Supreme unified 14gb base image) I added all ROMs myself.
USB Devices connected: 4 joysticks, 2 aimtrak guns, 1 aimtrak sensor
Controller used: dragon rise joysticks, aimtrak
Error messages received: “generate quad” “generate triple”
Log found in: Not sure how to tell this
Guide used: no
File: not sure
Emulator: advmame 1.4
How to replicate the problem: once I grab 2nd player aimtrak lightgun and point it at screen I then get message popping up every few seconds or so.

We don't support 3rd party images - as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
You might have bound one of the gun's controls to changing the display mode, check your bindings in the configuration file.

@mitu my fault with the 3rd party images. I appreciate the help though. I’ll check it out and get back to you with my findings. Thanks again.
