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 https:://emu7800.github.io - 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 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 quite 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
