Five classic lightgun games are playable in EMU7800 out of the box, which appears to be the only 7800 emulator to currently support lightgun play.
SETUP
Emulator – Download EMU7800 from github - Emulator comes with it’s own front end that must be used to load games, scripts to load games directly do not appear to work with this emulator.
- Start each of the 5 light gun games to populate a recently played game list for easy rom access
- Cursor removal with nomousey and recommend a delayed script to activate allowing time to select the game from the game menu
**Note – All the games play well but this is a rough solution and not very front end friendly so any script updates that launch the game directly are welcome.**
PLAYABLE GAMES
- Alien Brigade
- Barnyard Blaster
- Crossbow
- Meltdown
- Sentinel
SAMPLE AHK SCRIPT
Use the sample script below if you want to remove the cursor with a delay plus proper escape/shut down. Add your drive letter and escape quit function and a delay that works for you to launch a game prior to nomousy (set to 12 seconds):
#SingleInstance Force
sleep, 12000
Run, G:\nomousy\nomousy.exe /hide
$Esc::
Process,Close,EMU7800.exe
Run,taskkill /im "EMU7800.exe" /F
Run G:\nomousy\nomousy.exe
sleep, 500
ExitApp
Return
