MAME Lightgun Game Support

I figured instead of using the hardware thread to talk about game issues, etc... we should start a new thread to keep things a little organized.

To start...

• Carnevil. I'm still having difficulty with this game. I've tried: .078, AdvMAME, .251, .274 and .275... My results:

.274/.275/AdvMAME - Will not load.. says LOADING then flashes and back to the menu.
.251/.172/.078 - Will load... goes black... eventually you can see a 1-3 pixil dot in the middle toward the leftish... then nothing. I'm actually in MAME at this point... sort of. I can hit TAB for example... it's tiny and not readable but it opens a window.

• Multiple Incredible Technologies titles that all seem to use the same system... Titles include the 4 Big Buck Hunter titles and Carnival King.

These games all do the same thing regardless of whatever version of MAME I try. They go in to a session where it checks a "hard drive"... which takes varying amounts of time... then eventually you get to a point where it says "Disk Load Completed" and it sits there... forever. I've left it at that point for long periods of time with nothing eventually coming up. Again... you're actually IN MAME... you can TAB and adjust stuff like the resolution (Low/Medium)... etc... but nothing to get the game to actually... run.

Any suggestions?
