Hi,
Is there a way to disable the light gun flash in MAME64?
I am playing Operation Wolf and the screen flashes each time you pull the trigger. Is there anyway to disable that white screen flash?
I used the index search to try and find an answer before posting. I also searched the configuration options within MAME64 to see if there was a layer I could use to turn this off.
Thank you

it's part of the game, not MAME doing it, so no, we can't just add an option to disable it.
it was needed for the original guns to work

Thanks for the response, I thought this was going to be the answer.
Will MAME automatically not use the light gun flash if possible? Or will the be a setting somewhere to turn it off or on?

Not sure what you're asking now. Turning it off would literally involve hacking the game code on a per-game basis, and on some games (the NES baesd ones for example) would actually break the game, because the game code specifically looks for white pixels when you fire the gun.
This is out of the scope of MAME.
If you're using an actual light gun on a PC it will have it's own way of detecting things and might even introduce it's own flash.
Luckily? most arcade games didn't use real lightguns, so didn't have a flash anyway.

I completely understand You, flashing screen is so annoying - after a minute or so You will have an eye-sorrow, so it would be nice (and healthy too) if Pugsy can implement a cheat for these games.
Thanx in advance.
