Mamewah Themes

Just surfed over to the Localarcade.com website and found that they now have Mamewah themes/skins available for download. They also have some tutorial videos online and some sample config files with instructions. Make sure to check them out if you are interested in using Mamewah.

Act-Labs Light Guns


I purchased the Act-Labs PC USB Light gun for my Mame project. There is an updated review of the latest gun over at Retroblast.com. I strongly recommend watching the video online for help on calibration. Act-Labs has also posted instructions on how to make more than 1 gun work on a single computer with Mame. Definitely gonna have to try this out. If anyone has already done it please let me know how well it works and if there are any problems. I'm mostly interested in getting House of the Dead 2 or 3 working with 2 guns. Not sure if this is possible since the article only talks about Mame.
I would also love to know if anyone has ever been able to get CarnEvil working with a light gun.
