Legacy support means pre-Windows, so DOS support. I would guess the Act-Labs guns won't work on an arcade monitor or TV, only with a computer monitor.

I believe the best way to get light guns working in MAME is to get the PSX Namco Guncon guns to work through the parallel port, and using a TV-out. I have the guns, but haven't built the parallel port-PSX adapter yet.

: Okay, I read where someone said that included with the act-labs gun system is a legacy (what is legacy?) driver that allows the light guns to act as mouse emulators. If the light gun games in mame support mice wouldn't this work if used on a arcade monitor or tv or maybe even an arcade monitor? Being a big light gun game fan myself I am really trying to be one of the people who contributes to finding a way to play all the classic light gun games in mame with a light gun.
