away from the screen and try calibrating it again. If you are already more than 7ft away

(7ft for Regular Sensor Bar; 17ft for Super IR Sensor Bar) from the screen you should

move closer to the screen instead of away from it.

Once the calibration is accepted move the cursor around and see if it is accurate

enough for your liking. If you find that it isn't quite right, start the calibration process

again. This time you might try aiming slightly above or below the mouse cursor or

tipping the nose of the gun upward or downward during calibration. Also consider

stepping a foot or two away or towards the screen from your previous location. These

small adjustments should end up with a perfectly calibrated Arcade Guns™ light gun!

MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) Setup

MAME is a fantastic emulator that allows you to play many classic arcade light gun

games. It can be downloaded as a windows command-line version or better yet a GUI

frontend version such as MAME UI or MAME Plus!. You will also have a choice of 32bit

or 64bit versions of MAME. If you are running a 64bit version of Microsoft Windows then

we would recommend using a 64bit version of MAME to match your OS. If you already

have MAME installed make sure that you are using MAME version 0.131u1 or newer

since there were many important bug fixes in that version. New versions of MAME are

always being released on what seems to be a weekly basis. Additional game support

and other game fixes are always being added so it's a good idea to start with the

newest version of MAME available.

The following instructions will walk you through updating your mame.ini file so that

MAME is setup properly to work with your Arcade Guns™ light guns!

We highly recommend using a GUI frontend version of MAME since you get a nice

graphical user interface which is easier to use, plus you also get the flexibility of running

command-line arguments too:

1) Download and unzip MAME into a directory of your choice on your computer.

2) In that directory you should see a MAME executable file named something

like mame.exe or mameui.exe along with a file named mame.ini.

3) If the mame.ini file does not exist in the MAME folder, launch the MAME

executable and modify one of the properties; then it will be created.
