Sinden Lightgun, and RetroPie 4.8.1

Floob

I've had my lightgun for a few days now, and I think its a great product, works really well with RetroPie. I've started trying to put a mixed mode (to support gun and non-gun games using overrides) image together here.

@Floob...I have a mixed set-up Arcade with 4 player joysticks/buttons, two Sinden Lightguns and soon to be two Xbox One Controllers. Runnin it on a Pi 4b (8gb). All N64 games use the Xbox controllers as it has all the buttons and both analog sticks that the Arcade doesnt. It has been a journey getting this thing up and runnin, thats for sure. I got a lot of help on the Sinden Raspberry Pi Help Discord. I have 126 games, 11 of which are Lightgun. Everything, as of yesterday, is working optimally! Check it out!

That looks great!

Which lightgun games have you gone for, Time Crisis, Point Blank?

@Floob...I now have 12 lightgun games. They are:
Alien: The Gun, Jurassic Park, Area 51, T2, Time Crisis, Lethal Enforcers 1 & 2, The House of the Dead 2, Operation Wolf, Duck Hunt, Wild Gunman, Point Blank and Virtua Cop 2. I have been working with some of the awesome guys on the Sinden Rasp Pi Help Discord to create .cfg files for the Lightgun games, so that the non-lightgun games do not have a border, but the lightgun games do! Also got mine setup so that my Xbox controllers are the primary controllers for the N64 games. Can play GoldenEye and Smash Brothers and all!

I just pulled out all information from MAME on drivers/games that can use lightgun.

There seem to be 329 arcade drivers available which can make use of a lightgun.

Search for the lines containing "@working_arcade" and "@lightgun"

It might be useful to you.

Hello. In regards to the light gun games you have on your Rpi4... Are the arcade games listed the arcade versions? Like Terminator 2 or Time Crisis? Or are the port versions?
