OpenJVS - JVS Emulator

[brendan1495]

a few days ago @bobbydilley mentioned in a discord that more are on the way. Hopefully it won't be too much longer

Cheers

I have the same issue; hopefully someone sheds some light on it. I haven’t been able to really get the Aimtraks to work well with OpenJVS and they don’t appear as configured in the menu.

Hello!

WiPi doens't properly support how AimTraks work in OpenJVS - they're non standard controllers so they have to be handelled seperately.

https://github.com/OpenJVS/OpenJVS/blob/master/docs/openjvs/devices/ultimarc-aimtrak

You would find the device configuration file in /etc/openjvs/devices/ultimarc-aimtrak - you may have to ssh into the machine to edit it.

Maybe this is something you can implement @chunksin?

Just a note to say I've *finally* revisited this and setup a usb wii sense bar and connected a wii remote to the pi4 and it works great for Naomi gun games.
I am dumb as it took me a while to understand that the pi hat replaces the jvs i/o card completely and doesn't plug into it.

My ranking of the naomi gun games so far:

House of the Dead 2
Maze of The Kings
Confidential Mission
Death Crimson OX
Lupin The Shooting
Ninja Assault (the voice acting is just the worst!)


Thanks again bobbydilley!

I picked up one of the Pandora's Box light gun setups, works great out of the box but I've been meaning to get it tested with this JVS adapter... too many projects, not enough time.

How accurate are the guns? Are they line of sight perfect?

@bobbydilley how did you connect time crisis2 to (open)jvs / usb connector?

In a living room environment they're not bad at all. Don't know that they would work well on an arcade cabinet due to the closeness of the screen by comparison. Nifty thing about the setup is they have foot peddles pre-configured to use with the pandoras box. So time crisis etc play as they should. I read that they're going to release a more compact bare LED set for use with arcade cabs (could also just build our own) since these are supposed to work with the JAMMA pandoras box 10.
