You will also need the Plugins listed below and the BIOS Files for the region of game you are playing.

And then of course you will need some games! If you intend on playing Justifier games you will need to patch them first instructions will be below.

Now lets get started, Firstly extract the ePSXe files from the Zip file you downloaded.

Next unpack the contents of the Plugins zip file into the ePSXe folder to overwrite the original one.

Now put your BIOS files inside the bios folder within the ePSXe folder.

Now start the ePSXe executable to load the emulator, and it will come up with a config wizard to start up.

Press the "Config" Button and select the BIOS you intend to use, remember the BIOS needs to match the region of the game.

Then press "Next"

On the next screen you will be asked to select a GFX plug in, Select "ePSXe GPU Core 2.0.0" and press "Config".

Now make sure "Fullscreen Mode" is enabled and set you desktop resolution to whatever your resolution is.

In the drop down box next to "Stretching" set it to "4:3"

Next under "Misc" options at the bottom of the screen check that "Overscan" is disabled and make sure that "Overscan Top" and "Overscan Bottom" are both set to "0".

You can enable Scanlines or V-Sync if you wish.

Once done press "Ok" and then press "Next" when you return back to the previous screen,

Press Next again to skip the next screen.

On the next screen that pops up it will ask to configure the CD-rom depending on the version of Windows you are running, Select the appropriate one and press "Next"

On the next page you can configure your game pads.

So you press the "Controller 1" button which will bring up and mapping screen, Check "Direct Input" is selected in the drop down in the top right corner and then simply click in the Boxes joined to each button input and map them as you wish then press "Ok".

Repeat for "Controller 2" if required.

Next press the "Configure" button.

In the new menu that pops up select "Guncon" from the drop down next to "Port 1", Also check "Snap mouse to window" is enabled and HID Mouse API is set to "Rawinput".

Now press the "Config" button next to the "Port 1" drop down.

Check the following settings match:

"Reload" has "Manual" in the drop down box, "Cursor" is set to "Hidden", "Model" should be set to "Namco", "Left" should be set to "Trigger", "Right" should be set to "Reload" and "Middle" should be "A".

You can change the "Right" and "Middle" bindings around if you wish depending on your tastes and the game.

Now make sure the correct game profile is selected in the drop down menu in the bottom left e.g. Die Hard.

Next make sure the gun is plugged in, the software is running and the border is enabled.

Press the "Aquire" button and a little instruction box will pop up, press "Ok".

Gun Flash Removal Cheats

Download Cheat Pack

Cheat Pack created by Bratwurstmensch from the MEGA.nz

Introduction

• This tutorial assumes you have already set up your Sinden lightguns in ePSXe.

If you followed the Playstation 1 and 2 tutorials, you are most likely familiar with the nuvee patches found at MEGA.nz

Within the nuvee_10-21-11.zip file is also a folder called ps1 - gun flash removal.

You can apply these cheats to achieve exactly what it says – remove gun flashes for a few Playstation titles, and they also make the crosshair disappear in the Playstation versions of Moorhuhn.

Normally you needed the pec_hacks.txt file within the nuvee-zipfile to work with – but not anymore; this guide has you covered.

The download above has the codes formatted to make them readable within ePSXe. You will find a txt file per folder/game in this archive(Point Blank 3 is an exception since it got a revision).

DO NOT RENAME THOSE txt-FILES!

If you want to add more cheats, you need to put them directly under the existing codes with no blank lines left and separate them with the cheat title, including a Hashtag.

ePSXe v2.0.5 Step-by-step Setup

• Move the txt files of all titles you want to patch into the cheats-folder within the ePSXe directory.
• Boot up your Sinden software and Gun as normal
• Open ePSXe and boot the game to which you want to apply the cheat(s).
• Exit fullscreen mode (ESC by default) or pause the game
• Select Options -> Cheat Codes

• The flash removal entry should be visible now.
  • If not, check your game version – it must match the region / GameID of the txt-File.
• Select the entry and click Enable.

• The entry moves to the right. Hit OK.

• Select Run -> Continue it should switch back to fullscreen / ingame.

• Check if everything worked. There should be no gun flash/crosshairs in Moorhuhn-games anymore.
  • If nothing seems to have changed, try to follow steps 10 and 11, then check again.
  • Sometimes, ePSXe needs to be fully closed and opened again to get the cheats hooked up correctly.
  • Some cheats do only work for player 1 and have no impact on player 2 flashes.

• Calibrate your guns if needed and save your state with F1 as cheats are NOT auto-applied but will be kept enabled in your save states.

Save/Load State Tip/Trick

• Use AHK to load/save your games with "no gun flash-cheats" enabled (F3 loads, F1 saves states)

Example AHK code

Load State

• After your ePSXe/Game AHK boot commands, enter these lines below to automate pressing F3

 sleep, 6000 send, {F3 Down} Sleep, 500 send, {F3 Up}

Save State

• In your AHK script use the code below right before the exit game portion of your script. This will automate pressing F1 and save a state.

 send, {F1 Down} Sleep, 500 send, {F1 Up} sleep, 2000
