  1. Hello GameEx family! :-) I figured out and built a little something in AHK that might be of some help. The problem - Sega Model 3 change Lightgun IDs after reboot, which causes the lightguns to not function or function incorrectly when trying to play The Lost World. This poses a problem if you are using dual lightguns. The solution - If you are tired of having to open the supermodel.ini file and have to plug in numbers...or (like me), if you have an arcade setup and want to change the IDs without opening the INI file, this is for you. :-). Due to the Labor Day holiday, I'm away from my cab and scripts at the moment. Tomorrow evening, I will edit this post and will go in depth on a tutorial to solve this issue. For now, here is a short video with the script in action...and I apologize before ya watch it - I tend to get a little nervous in front of cameras lol. http://youtu.be/61350i0Typ4 Oh, and this script is just the first step...hopefully I will have it automatically change to the correct IDs without having a UI :-). -------- Now for the goodies! Prerequisites: - AutoHotKey: http://ahkscript.org/ - A little "know how" on writing scripts - A working Sega Model 3 emulator with all settings configured Recommended: ControllerRemap, which can be found here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=108767.0 The basic idea for this is writing a small UI to easily change Lightgun IDs with Sega Model 3 really easily. I'm taking the script's code directly from what I've written, so please use this only as an example and a guide. Everything about this is completely customizable - you can add or take away anything you would feel comfortable with. (e.g. If you would like to add in drop down boxes that you can select different controllers, etc). I'm going to break this down in sections AND PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU CHANGE THE PATHS IN THIS SCRIPT TO WHERE EVER YOUR SUPERMODEL EMU FOLDER IS LOCATED, AND CREATE A NEW FOLDER INSIDE THE ROOT OF THE SUPERMODEL FOLDER FOR BACKING UP YOUR PREVIOUS INI FILE (THIS WILL BE EXPLAINED LATER). First and foremost, here is the entire script: ;;;;;;;;;THE USER INTERFACE;;;;;;;;;;Gui, Show, w400 h200, Sega Supermodel Lightgun Switch IDsGui, Add, Text, x100 y50 cred, Player #1 IDGUI, Add, DropDownList, x75 y75 voneplayer, ID 1||ID 2|ID 3|ID 4Gui, Add, Text, x250 y50 cblue, Player #2 IDGui, Add, DropDownList, x225 y75 vtwoplayer, ID 1||ID 2||ID 3||ID 4Gui, Add, Button, x300 y150 w50 h25 gok, OK!;;;;;;;;;CUSTOMIZE THE CONTROLS TO YOUR LIKING FOR ARCADE JOYSTICK AND PUSHBUTTON USE;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;9::Send {ENTER}0::Send {TAB}returnok:Gui, Submit, NoHide;;;;;;;;CHANGES VARIABLE INTO USEFUL IDs FOR SUPERMODEL.INI USE;;;;;;;{If oneplayer = ID 1 oneplayer := 1}{If oneplayer = ID 2 oneplayer := 2}{If oneplayer = ID 3 oneplayer := 3}{If oneplayer = ID 4 oneplayer := 4}{If twoplayer = ID 1 twoplayer := 1}{If twoplayer = ID 2 twoplayer := 2}{If twoplayer = ID 3 twoplayer := 3}{If twoplayer = ID 4 twoplayer := 4};;;;;;;;;BACKS UP OLD SUPERMODEL.INI FILE;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;FileMove, H:\Users\BoxOAwesome\Documents\MAME FINALE MOVE\Supermodel\Config\Supermodel.ini, H:\Users\BoxOAwesome\Documents\MAME FINALE MOVE\Supermodel\Old Config Backup, 1;;;;;;;;;CREATES NEW SUPERMODEL.INI FILE;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;FileAppend, (;;`n;; Supermodel Configuration File`n;; Default settings for Version 0.2a.`n;;`n `n`n;`n; Quick Overview`n; --------------`n;`n; All settings are case sensitive.

This part is going to be the most "work" in creating this. What I did was copy and paste my entire supermodel.ini file inside the script; added a semicolon at the beginning of every line; then replaced each semicolon with a " `n " and made one big "line". For any of you who are new to AHK, doing this tells the script that when it creates the file, the " `n " is where a new line starts. All in all, you would want the script to create a mirror image of your file, except for where you plug in your variables. Where does ControllerRemap come at in all of this? - you may ask... ...for me, it takes the "guess work" out of finding out what IDs your lightguns were assigned to. If you have ControllerRemap to run when your cab, or other setup, boots up, you can look in any lightgun mame game to figure out what the new lightgun IDs are and then apply them to Sega Model 3 using this method. What I would like for it to do...lol, and feel free to help me out on this if you want...is I would like for it to copy and convert the "MyArcade.cfg" file (from ControllerRemap) to an XML file (after ControllerRemap runs)...then it will "read" the newly mapped ID's and then create the supermodel.ini file with the new ID's..pretty much everything done automatically without the use of a UI. I have just about everything ready on this, I just cannot get the AHK script to read the XML file for some reason. I hope this helps, and if anytime you need my assistance, please feel free to send me a pm anytime! LC
  2. Hello, I thought I would share this with y'all: I was having a bit of a problem before when it came to windows changing my USB device IDs after reboot. Plugged into my cab, I have a regular mouse, a trackball (Ultimarc's Utrak), and two lightguns from ArcadeGuns.Com (which uses AimTrak technology). After rebooting, I would have to reconfigure all of the trackball and lightgun games, as their device IDs would change via Windows. After many hours searching for a fix to this problem, and much trial and error, I think I came up with a good solution to this problem - it's a small fix, and so far, I had no troubles since then. - Oh, and if you have more than two lightguns, a trackball, and a mouse hooked up; or if you constantly plug and unplug different types of devices that windows looks at as mice, than this may not work for you. I would suggest downloading "ControllerRemap". It's as simple as this: If you set the lightgun's Device IDs using the AimTrak software (from Ultimarc) to "Device 3" and "Device 4" right before shelling GameEx (or any type of front end), you will never have to reconfigure anytype of lightgun or trackball game in Mame - you can even plug and unplug the devices, as long as the computer is shut down when ya do, and as long as you plug the devices in the exact same USB ports, and windows will keep the same Device IDs. I've tried this on my cab for the past couple of days (shutting down, unplugging everything, replugging everything, powering up), and so far, everything worked seamless, every single time. This should also work if you are using a USB hub - I have my trackball hooked up to the hub, and never had to reconfigure any trackball games since. I hope this will help some of you, who may be stumbling on this issue when building your cab! LC
