    Hey Retropie guy, I have my mode on mode 2, but for some reason when I go to configure my official wii remote in the settings for this game page, the A button and the B button do not work. I tried my wii remote on my laptop with the dolphin emulator and it was fully functional but doesn’t work correctly on my pi, any idea why?

    Hey mate nice video, what default mame emu do you use for gun games. As they all have different menus when you hit tab. Is it mame 2003? Do you use any other emus for light gun arcade on the pi for light guns with the wii?

    • @OfficialChaseBrogan
      @OfficialChaseBrogan  3 года назад +2

      Hey good question! Just regular mame 2003. Some will work on the later mame emus but 2003 is the most consistent with the majority of titles. There’s nothing specifically for Wii/light gun games but maybe we’ll get one in the future. You can’t use light guns with other emulators too. I haven’t tried a whole lot but just got house of the dead 2 running off the Naomi version rom. That’s using the fly cast emulator. That was a nightmare to figure out but finally got it after a couple of months of intermittent attempts. I’ll have a video up on how that works in the next couple of days. Going to try to get time crisis for ps going next. Haven’t had much luck on the ps emulator yet.

    • @OfficialChaseBrogan
      @OfficialChaseBrogan  3 года назад +2

      Should be one and done as long as you don’t make changes. Updates SHOULDNT affect the settings but it’s safer to avoid updates. We have a video talking about updates for RetroPie on our channel. There’s a level of uncertainty when updating. You never know what exactly is going to change. Sometimes they’re great sometimes they aren’t. A few months back I made the mistake of updating and it really messed everything up for about 3 months until they released a handful of updates which slowly got everything back to running well. Luckily I had my card backed up so I just created another copy but I left that one as it was to experiment how long it would take to get it back to normal if I didn’t have that backup copy to fall back on. The answer was waaaaay too long.

      It's capable of working everywhere. It depends on the emulation platform you are using too though. I've found retropie is a little more touchy and can give you issues sometimes configuring light guns for the console collections. I haven't tried NES on retropie yet but I've tried multiple other collections with Batocera and each has worked perfectly.

      Go into your retroarch settings and you likely need to change the device type to light gun option it's probably set on game pad. If that doesn't do it could be different now as this is a older video done on a older version of the software

    This is a great tutorial. I wish I had seen this before i set mine up... would've saved me hours. Is there a way to set up a second Wii remote for 2 player games?

    • @OfficialChaseBrogan
      @OfficialChaseBrogan  3 года назад +3

      That’s why I made it. I had such a nightmare trying to do it myself the first time around and then I updated at one point to one of those wonky updates that caused more issues than it solved and I couldn’t get any of the light gun settings to work. Luckily it was just that update once I moved into the newer one a couple weeks later all was good again.
      To set up two Wii remotes you actually need another dolphin bar. You’d do the exact same process into the other usb 3 port. It sucks but the dolphin bars only pick up one connection at a time. You could run the other bar opposite the other so one would be on top and above above or you could probably stick them together as long as you’ve careful not to push any buttons on them while doing so.

      @@BartSubelack ah okay. Yeah it’s probably picking up your 2 player controls as 1 and 2 so Wii mote is 3. May be able to select the Wii mote in retroarch settings. I don’t have a light gun on my arcade setup so I’m not entirely sure there. You could unplug the two arcade controls from the USB port and that would def solve it I think but that’s not ideal to have to do every time.

  • @Luisiroth

    The problem I have with this is that the controller interprets the exact bar position as the center of the screen and the shooting is anything but intuitive :(

    • @OfficialChaseBrogan
      @OfficialChaseBrogan  3 года назад +2

      I use it in my 70 inch and it’s pretty good with determining screen sizes/position. The gun however isn’t you standard aiming setup you don’t really aim like you would a regular gun you have to just get a feel for where the crosshairs are on the screen and move it accordingly. Definitely takes getting use to and for anybody used to actually shooting it’s night and day difference for sure. Your retropie version could also affect the end result too. I have some retropie update versions that made this totally unplayable for a while there.

      Yeah I agree especially when one dolphin bar works fine with 2 Wii remotes on Wii games on other emulation platforms. The capabilities are there with the dolphin bar but apparently not in the mode used for other collections beyond Wii.

    • @OfficialChaseBrogan
      @OfficialChaseBrogan  3 года назад +1

      So they call it wireless but it's wired in and connects via usb. It's called wireless because it's a wireless connection between the Wii remote and the sensor bar. Tends to confuse people.
