GCON 45 Setup for PS1:

Video Guide

Here is the full tutorial to create the adapter required and the PI4 image to get your Sinden Lightgun working with a original PS1 or PS2* console (*Guncon 45 games only).

The provided image was a collaboration between Titchgamer, Prof_gLX and Harry Dog who created the original BB image.

Troubleshooting and upgrading the GCON45 Setup:

Please note this image was created using the 1.4 version of the Sinden software.

It is a good idea to upgrade it to the latest version and upgrade your guns firmware.

To Upgrade the software on the card is very easy, Simply download the latest software from the Sinden Lightgun website HERE

Once downloaded extract the Lightgun folder located in the SindenLightgunLinuxSoftware\Pi-Arm\ folder and overwrite the existing version on the Pi located in folder /home/pi using SSH.

It has been found that on newer Pi's that the Pi may not boot with this image. If this is the case for you please download and extract this file HERE.

After extraction, Copy the Start4.elf & fixup4.dat files and overwrite the ones in the boot partition of your SD card.

If your service starts on the Pi but your gun does not track make sure you have updated your firmware to the latest 1.6 version.

If the service does not start on the Pi and shows a error the ID's are probably wrong, Double check them.


If the gun seems to be rapidly disconnecting and reconnecting again (The controller screen of point blank seems to be a good test for this) you may need to run your adapter through a Multi Tap (or 2 for 2 player).

We are unsure exactly what causes this issue at this point in time if its a power issue or interference but a Multi Tap seems to fix it!
