Gun games and projectors?

Hi folks, 

Wondering if anyone has experience with this? I've got LB set up in my basement through a projector.  It's been great,  but now I'm curious about playing some classic gun games.  I've heard so much conflicting information,  and am pretty  confused. 

Ideally,  I'd like to play old Nes, Snes, mame, Dreamcast and PS games. What would be the best way to accomplish this? Any gun hardware suggestions?

Hi, I use the Aimtrak light guns.  One thing that you have to think about is the IR sensor bar.  If you are in a big room you might need a larger sensor bar.  I have my sensor bar above the TV and it works good.  it take a few times to calibrate it but it works.  oh make sure that the sensor bar is level to where you are playing from as well.  Hope this helps a little.

The sensor that comes with the aimtrak guns connects with usb and is about 5 inches wide.  it has a 4 ft cable, so not very long.   They say the sensor needs to be on top so your millage may vary.  I would contact them to see about putting it below the screen.  what I mean by level is the the sensor par itself is level so the light guns can get a good straight line of sight with it.

 

hope this helps
