Modified DefaultLG Files for Alien Guns

[dgrace13]

All files work great from the latest v1.1.8 HOTR, with the exception of a few I had to tweak (i.e. HOTD4, SDR, TFHA, etc.).

That is great news. Hopefully the new Slow mode worked good for you, on the fast recoil games that you had to tweak. I tried all the games out that you talked about, except for 1 MAME game that I cannot remember, on the Alien Gun. After putting the Alien gun into Slow mode, all the fast recoil game work great for me.

Someone did tell me how to slow down recoil on DemulShooter games. By making the custom recoil timings longer. This is done by opening up the DemulShooter GUI, and selecting 'Outputs'. Then the bottom 2 things are for the custom recoil timings. First is how long the signal is high, and then how long the signal is low. But with anything, there are pluses and minuses. One of the minuses, if you make it too long, then all the guns will sound and fill the same. For example, in HOTD: SD, which has a lot of different guns with different recoil speeds, now would all be the same recoil, if the timing is big enough. Also, it could have skipping, or syncing problems, if recoil is based on the ammo rate, and the custom recoil is longer. Same problem with delay recoil. But since DemulShooter makes the recoil signal, Argon might have solved the problem. Also, doesn't work on MAMe games, as Mechanized Attack has fast recoil. Also, Beast Buster at 82ms, but not as bad. As it seems the limit of the Alien gun is around 65ms.

Also, I think I will make a new Section on the HOTR Game File site, for the Alien Light gun. Then I can have the fast recoil games in Slow Mode, or Recoil_R2S, if available.

Also, I have never heard about the Line of Fire game. I have heard about Operation Thunderbolt. I thought I checked it out in LGTCPTester. I will have to go back and check the logs.

I made a 'Fast Recoil Games' page in the HOTR Game File site. It has 2 sections. The first, is the Slow Mode section. All the players are put into Slow Mode. The second section, is the forced Recoil_R2S. This forces HOTR to use Recoil_R2S recoil method. Link is below.

@dgrace13 Sorry, if you were waiting for me to create the Slow Mode game files. I assumed you saw how to implement Slow Mode from the YouTube video (HOTR Release v1.1.7). But looking back, I think the only place I say how to implement Slow Mode is from the video. I should had made sure you knew how to do it. Sorry, if that was the case. Hopefully now that I created the 'Fast Recoil Games' page on the game file site, you can check out Slow Mode now, with the new game files.

Also, I would like to put a thanks to you on the 'Fast Recoil Page' for all your work you have done. I can put 'dgrace13' or something else. Please let me know.

This is great, man. I'll test all the slow mode files again on the site, for the trickier fast games. I'll also play around with the demulshooter recoil delay settings. I forgot Argon had that fearure. You can just put my name David Grace. Doesn't matter to me. But at the end of the day, you did all the hard work. I just helped test a little😁.
Thanks again

@dgrace13 Wanted to check in with you that the fast recoil games are working good with the Alien light gun. I want to ship back the Alien light gun that I borrowed, But want to make sure that you didn't find any other problems.
