Hi guys this is going to be the setup
guide for getting your Samco guns
working and for PlayStation and Sega
Saturn so we're gonna run these through
RetroArch so the first thing you'll
need to do is go to RetroArch I'll
leave a link down below where to get it
from
so you just download it from there
once that's downloaded there's a just a
couple extra things we need to do we
need to install some BIOS so if we go
here and go open file location' from the
shortcut it creates and scroll up to
system these are the files you need for
your BIOS I'm not going to give you
links to these but if you just do a
quick search on the internet I'm sure
you'll be able to find them so those
first ones are selected we're for
PlayStation in those second ones for
SEGA Saturn so once you have those
dropped into your system folder you'll
just need to get some roms as well once
again i want to show you where to get
these from but a quick search will find
them just search for PlayStation roms or
see SEGA Saturn roms I just put them
straight in my C: Drive and make a little
folder and this should look something
like this so once you have your BIOS's
and your roms you're ready to go so for
now for the setup we want to keep our
guns unplugged so when they're unplugged
we just need to open retro arch and then
we just need to download our emulators
so we do that by going to core updater
and then we just scroll all the way down
here to see your seven keep going keep
going
there it is and we're gonna use Beetle
Saturn so just click on that and that
will install and then we also want
PlayStation so with PlayStation you wannna
is beetle as well
is PSX HW unfortunately that doesn't
have mouse support at the moment so we're
just going to download the normal Beatle
PSX which works perfectly fine so once
we have both of those installed we just
need to go across to our drivers and we
just want to change this to raw I think
it's set as dinput as default
but just make sure you change that to
raw all right once we've done that we
just need to set up inputs so if we
scroll down here to input let's go all
the way down to user 1 binds scroll down
and we just want to make sure while
we're setting up that our mass index is
set to 0 and then we just scroll down to
use one gun trigger
yours will probably be blank so what we
have to do here is press ENTER and then
hold the mouse trigger and then we just
go through and do the rest of those so
we do left mouse button is mass to
middle mouse button is Mouse 3 and if
you're running seeker setting you'll
need a gun start button as well so I've
just set mine to enter cool once we have
that if you're just using one gun you've
done but if you want to do two guns then
we also have to set up a stick and bind
so the way we do that is we go to this
we just change our mass index to 0 just
for now and then we go through and do
that exact same setup again so left
trigger etc and then the only thing we
have to do after that is change our mass
index back to 1 alright so once we've
done all that we've done all their
initial setup so we just need to exit
out of RetroArch just by pressing escape
and now we can plug our guns in so once
we have both our guns plugged in we go
back into retro touch and now it's time
to load again so let's go load content
is going to C: Drive this is where am I
going to saved yours might be saved
somewhere else and I'm gonna use point
blank as an example just because it's a
two-player game and we make sure we're
using the right emulator so this is a
PlayStation game so we use a Playstation
emulator
I mean again we'll load all we need to
do is press F1 which will bring us to
this menu here and then we just scroll
down to controls and we just have to
make sure that these controls are set to
Guncon/G-Gon 45 and then if you
using a second gun you want that one a
Guncon/G-Gon 45 as well once
you've done that just restart your
emulator
this time we will have across here
usually in a pretty random position but
now they've got those cross hairs we can
calibrate our guns as I showed in the
build setup and introduction so we just
do that for both our guns now we just
need to skip through a few screens here
we will eventually get normal
calibration like you would on a normal
ps1
so yeah just like yeah so we just need
to calibrate our guns as we would on the
original ps1 just by shooting the center
of that screen and then pressing the a
or b button when you're done and there
you have it
we're done so you can see the blue dot
is the player one gun and then the pink
dot is the player two gun in a second
here have here both the guns shooting at
the same time
so there you have it yeah two guns
sit up in PSX Beetle very similar to set up
for SEGA Saturn I think the the only but is
when you change the controls in the f1
when you press f1 when you load your
core it's called a virtua gun rather
than a gun con but apart from that
exactly the same setup so that's about
it
I hope you like this video as usual I'm
still working on doing heaps of other
emulators and the next one I think I'm
going to do is pcsx2 which is a
PlayStation 2 emulator so if you don't
want to miss out on that make sure you
subscribe if you like this video give it
