OpenJVS - JVS Emulator

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.
 
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!

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

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

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.

Definitely works with just tapping csync as I've got it working that way with RGB-Pi in my NAC.

Thank you for sharing this information. I have a 31khz only monitor in my candy cab and wanted to know if the guncon 2 works with openJVS hat for the Naomi. When I have a crt? Do I still need sensors or does it work without sensors?
 
Guncon 2 should work without sensors, it does for MiSter, with an adapter for sync, but there you have to turn on sync on green, and then plug into the green video signal with the yellow splitter, I don't know this but since Sync sits on a separate pin, you could possibly make a RCA adapter that splices into sync on a monitor or the MiSter community has some VGA-RCA-VGA adapters you might want to try... something like this:

Again no guarantees, I'm still working with trying to get that and the zapper to work with Snac, and it does work, but I wonder if it's my brightness that I need to drive up, or my calibration as it's not 100% on all the gun games I've tried....
 
So I just stumbled into this thread and seems I missed on the hat sales , my question is how can I get started to use openjvs on wipi netbooter? As in what devices I should buy and how to connect it set it up etc? I read the thread and saw a USB to rs485 dongle but if I purchase it how do I connect it to the naomi? Also I see on online a PCB called "JVS to USB Controller Adapter Based On MP07- IONA-US For TTX2 3/Sega Naomi 1 2" will this work if I purchase it and configure it? I know I asked many questions but I'm in dire need for help to complete the arcade setup for driving and gun games.

Thank you for reading and hopefully someone can help me.

I'm using an rs485 dongle to usb, since I missed jvs hat sales.
It needs to work in tandem with a pi (wipi image works flawlessly with pi3 and 4), you will need to plug/screw or solder a wires on the pi (for "sensing jvs") and to the usb to rs485 (the one I have has screw terminals)

BTW, I was very surprised with the response time/lag with this pi solution (pi4 and brook ufb board based arcade stick), I feel it's faster than using the capcom converter (tested on a crt tv and oled+retrotink4k)

I heard about the rs485 as a suggestion to connect a pc to an Astro city. I have a Sega io and wanted to hook it up to a pc.
 
Edit :

That's false. The Sega IO has support for nine buttons and works fine with any Capcom fighting game.

note that the sega io won't provide the cps2 kck harness port and supports for 6buttons games like CvS2, SFZero3 etc, you will need the capcom converter for that.

is your astro jamma only or do you have usb encoders for inputs?
