"THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD 2: Remake is a remake of the second entry in the well-known and popular rail-shooter series. Take on the lone role of a secret agent as James or Gary, or team up in co-op mode to neutralize the dangerous undead monsters standing in your way."
The House of the Dead 2 Remake is available to buy from Steam or GOG.
*This game was released without proper lightgun support.
Dual Lightgun Support via Arcade Mod
The House of the Dead 2: Remake does not natively support dual-mouse input required for two light guns. To use light guns (e.g., Sinden, Aimtrak, or Wiimotes) with DemulShooter, you'll need the community-made Arcade Mod plugin.
What it enables
- Full lightgun functionality for arcade-style gameplay
- Two-player lightgun support
- Compatibility with mouse-simulating lightgun hardware
Installation
1. Install the Arcade Mod
Download the HOTD Remake Arcade Plugin from the GitHub release page. Extract the plugin files into your main game directory, where The House of the Dead Remake.exe is located.
2. Configure the plugin
Run ArcadeMod_Config.exe inside your game folder. Under "Input Type," choose MULTIPLAYER. (Choosing "Single Player" will prevent DemulShooter from engaging P2 controls.)
3. Launch with DemulShooter
Make sure both of your light guns are mapped as standard mice in Windows. Launch the game, then run DemulShooter using:
-target=houseofdeadremake -rom=HOTDA
