Virtua Cop light gun support

Post by Ant2no78 »

Hi all,

I'm trying to play VC2 via a crt with the light gun but it won't load up at all. I've tried it via the smash pack and also via a virtua cop 2 rom but still no joy.

Any advice would be much appreciated .

Hello!!!
If your are using a crt, is NTSC compartible?
I'm from Europe and not all old TVs are able to work at 60hz.
If that is not your problem, maybe the burned disc fails.
Another light gun games works?

If you get to make it load, remember to give some high bright and contrast to the TV, and then calibrate the guns from the options menu of every game.

Enjoy the experience because Dreamcast lightguns and games are awesome!
The Atomiswave conversions have some nice lightguns games, I remember that Nester (Nes Emu) works with lightgun too. ;-)

I've also heard that replacement PSUs can cause issues with lightguns, in case you've installed one in your console.

Hi Jako,

The game won't even load up. HOTD 2 and confidential missions work perfectly. I'm trying to load VC2 via retrodream and I've got it set up to an old crt.
