    Hi John! I have one of these and love it. I mounted my IR bar on the very top flush against the edge of the marquee, so you can barely even see it. I also had an Etsy seller print me a holster that I mounted with 3M removable velcro to prevent any permanent mounting issues. I like being able to simply disconnect thr power connector when I want to play more silently without the recoil. It's a great setup!! 👍

    Excellent tutorial. I mounted my IR bar by first taking it apart and using a Dremel to reroute the cord from the back to one side. This allowed me to use Alien Tape to mount it directly, and it looks like it'll hold pretty well--though I had to leave one of the screws out since the cord now blocked the hole. I also tested leaving the light gun plugged into the USB port and it looks like the latest firmware of the ALU is able to handle it as I didn't experience any issues--at least not yet.

    • @russjudge
      @russjudge Před rokem

      Nevermind about that test with leaving the gun plugged in--I was plugged in the USB 3 port--which doesn't work for the light gun in the first place.

      @WagnersTechTalk  Před rokem

      Thank you Russell! Sounds like you've got yours mounted up great. The first time I powered on the ALU I saw the 'No signal' and thought I had accidentally unplugged something (which I actually did, unplugged the BitLCD by accident but everything else was fine). Took me a bit to figure out that the powered hub can't be plugged in on power-up. Like you, I also tried the USB 3 port and thought the trigger button on the gun was broken. Until I tried the USB 2.0 port and realized it made a difference. Hopefully my mistakes will save others some time and headaches lol

    AimTrak also sells the internal DIY kit for the light gun. I bought it a few months ago and I am working on putting it into an old PS3 "Top Shot Elite Rifle". Will report back with what happens.
    The DIY kit has option to solder on 4 more button however you need to use a different firmware to be able to map them. I do not know if that will work with AtGames Legends Ultimate Arcade yet.
    I imagine if you took apart the official AimTrak light gun you would be able to solder a connector or wires for the 4 additional buttons.

    A very clear and concise guide. :) the only thing I wish could be improved is the actual mounting of the sensor bar. it looks clumsy. Could it not be mounted flush underneath and towards the front of the Marquee leaving the USB cable to be run behind the marquee itself, into the inside of the cabinet, and then presented out the back to a usb hub that would live behind the cabinet itself?

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 10 měsíci

      Thank you! There are 3rd party mounting bars either on etsy or other locations. The one I installed here is holding out just fine (haven't made any alterations since this video). Mounting it underneath the marquee might result in inaccurate readings from the gun. You can certainly try it, but in my testing having it below the marquee worked out well. As far as inside the cabinet, I wouldn't. Remember, when you power off/on the cabinet you need to remove the USB to the hub or it won't boot. Now, you could add a USB switch in the mix and be fine. Even still, a cable would need to be routed to the outside to do that. Hope some of this helps.

    One of the best tutorials I’ve seen! Never saw the Operation Wolf marquee but I’m hoping it matches the original. Just so I understand, is the actual game officially licensed and available on the system and not part of a non-official download like Hylo-X for the MVSX home arcade? I saw several other incredible arcade gun games being played in this video and wondered how this was possible? This could very possibly be the end all home arcade machine!!!

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před rokem

      Much appreciated! The Marquee is animated and was shown briefly, though there is a still image also for it if you don't want it animated (high quality) but you'd need the BitLCD with the Legends Ultimate (not BitPixel, separate product). There is a pack that you can download here with well over 1k Arcade Game Marquees: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-bitlcd/#Artwork_Packs (including Operation Wolf).
      The light-gun games that are included (and officially licensed) are listed here: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-aimtrak/#ALU_11_Light_Gun_Games (I may have missed some, but not sure that I have). Adding more games via CoinOpsX is pretty easy, just need a USB stick and I have a guide for that as well.
      There will be a new cabinet coming out later this year, likely late 2023 with a faster processor. Current units will be upgradable to the new boards. No details on pricing at the current time for the new units.
      I don't want to overload you with links, but if interested you can learn more about the upcoming 4k cabinet here: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-news/#Legends_Ultimate_4KP . It's all the information I have at the present time. I hope I've answered your questions and provided you with enough information to make an informed decision.

      Very good question. Keep in mind, when connecting the USB cable from the hub to the 2.0 port you're connecting both the light gun and the sensor bar. Without using a powered USB hub, you may wind up with some odd results as the power requirements for both devices are coming from a single USB port that may impact the performance or usability (i.e. disconnects). It's safest to say, use a powered hub for this and what I used during testing. I hope that answers your question better.

    Hello and thanks for the great video ! Ive done everything and even tested two guns but for some reason after the config in the video my lightgun is showing as player 2 and I am not able to use it and play the lightgun games ?? Thanks for any help

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 11 měsíci

      Very welcome and thank you! Start off with one gun, calibrate it, etc. Make sure you changed the DEVICE 1 to DEVICE 2 for the 2nd gun, then repeat the calibration for that gun. Should be good to go. Written steps can be found here: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-aimtrak/#Light-Gun_Configuration

    • @WagnersTechTalk

      Haven't seen that. I'd try re-flashing the firmware, re-configuring the gun. Power off the ALU (disconnect the USB to the ALU), power the ALU back on, plug in the USB to the hub, then re-calibrate the gun. That should do it. Make sure you're plugging in to the USB 2.0 port (white).

      That may be the issue, I only have an ALU 1.1 to test with. I updated the title in the guide to reflect ALU 1.1. You may want to contact AtGames for suggestions here: www.atgames.net/arcades/contact/ or the Legends Ultimate subreddit here: www.reddit.com/r/LegendsUltimate . Someone with an ALU 1.0 cabinet may be able to chime in.

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před 9 měsíci

      You may have to unplug the USB 2.0 cable, power off/on the ALU, plug in USB 2.0 to the hub, then calibrate gun #1, then gun #2 and should be good then.

      It feels much more responsive, very low latency. In time, I will be using this and perhaps another set of guns to test on other platforms. But, need to leave time in-between other videos while I test/document.

      The focus for this video was to fully test the AimTrak with the ALU. I haven't yet tried the same on the core/max, but when I do I'll be updating the guide as I do it with other Legends devices that are tested. My understanding is that it will work, so long as the controls are paired via BT. But can't 100% confirm until I personally verify.

      Most of those games will work well, of those that won't: Area 51 is a no and Lethal Enforcers does not play well (very hard to reload as shown in this video). The recoil can be turned off by unplugging the power supply to the gun. Thank you for your support and hope this is helpful to you!

    My brother-in-law says he wants a 3D printer in the worst way. I want a 3D printed gun holster in the worst way. So for his birthday, I bought him a 3D printer. It's been 3 months and I have no gun holster. Should I divorce my wife? Looking for some advice.

    • @WagnersTechTalk
      @WagnersTechTalk  Před rokem +1

      lol, no definitely don't divorce your wife. I will say, when I first got my printer it was a few months before I really got a hang of how to level the bed and get a good print off it. That was about 6 years ago (or longer). Still using the same printer and it's been great, but not the latest nor greatest available. It may be that he's having difficulty learning the software for it, Cura had a learning curve. Then I found my printer had it's own software called FlashPrint (I use a FlashForge Creator Pro) that made printing SOOO much easier. May need to make a visit and help him get started.
      If that doesn't work out, I have links in the accessories section of the guide to download the .stl for the holster. Many public libraries should print it for you cheap or free (my library will print it free). Thank you for the laugh, great way to start the day!
