In Emulators / NES ROMs

I have a shooter game on my emulator. I can't use the keyboard, but I don't get a laser gun to work either! What can I do?!

What game and what emulator is it? Some games had certain controllers built for them in the emulator to act like the controller that used to run it...

also, most good emulators will allow you to use the mouse as the light gun. it doesn't work too well though...

The emulator is Jnes...

JNES claims in the help file to have zapper support, but I can't get it to work at all. I recommend using NNnesterj. It's programmed for using the cursor for the zapper.

Edit: I just went in and figured out what you can do with the JNES. Go to the Options menu, click on Input... and then click on the Player 2 tab. Click on the bullet that says Zapper. Click OK, and now you can use the mouse as a zapper! I guess that's one mystery off my list!

No actually I have Jnes also and i can use my mouse as a light gun
