you are not alone. both of my topgun iii's triggers have broken as well... i also used it on my xbox, however i did not have any calibration issues. the gun is still useless without a working trigger though. Great info... thanks. So did you buy from Divineo.com? Did they make you pay to ship the defective guns back to Hong Kong? I've informed them of the problem, and they said they are checking with their manufacturer... not sure how they plan on remedying the situation, but I'll post any updates. It's a shame, because the gun is definitely cool looking and when it works, it's very fun. I just don't understand why its build quality and operation are so flaky. I also bought from Divineo since they had free shipping, and they said the exact same thing to me. Funny that we have the exact same situation... I would love to just ship them back and get them repaired, however what's to say that the problem won't just happen again in another hour of use? Has hkems actually solved the issue with these triggers? Please do not take offense to this post, I am only hesitant because shipping is almost as expensive as buying another gun!

hi got my topgun3 guns in the post a couple of days ago, after a bit of effort i got both guns working, used both for about 1 hour or so. the trigger stopped working on one of the guns, went into the config tool (TopGun control panel) and when you press any of the buttons on the gun, it only registers as "button 2". all buttons register as button 2..

Please apply the default settings in all 3 pages in the TopGun panel. After that, please test the buttons and the trigger again.
Please inform us the test result, so that we could find out the problem. Thanks.

Hello,
I got my Topgun to work with Windows 7 64, using the tool to override the driver signature. Since then, nearly everything works fine. The gun is very precise and it's a lot of fun with MAME.
Unfortunately, I ran into the same difficulties as some other people here: From one moment to the other, button C mapped as the trigger. So I started the panel to load the defaut values and submit them to the gun.
Big surprise: The panel doesn't reckognize the gun at all. When I try to submit the values, I get an error message that means, there's no Topgun device connected. Funny: When I point the gun to the screen, I can control the mouse pointer - so it is connected and it works.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the driver didn't bring any change. This evening, I'll install Windows XP Professional 32-Bit as second operating system and test the gun there, but I don't know if submitting the defaults under Windows XP will affect the functionality of the gun under Windows 7.
Do you (or anyone else) have an idea instead how to handle this phenomenon?

Short update:
Just tested with Windows XP Professional 32-Bit. Everything worked perfectly! The Panel recognized the gun and submitted the defaults.
Back to Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit, the gun itself works quite good, but button C and the trigger are both recognized as "Gun 4 B0" by MAME - and the Panel doesn't recognize the gun at all.

Please check if the device manager could recognize the gun correctly.
You may follow the guide below to install the driver again and see if it helps. Thanks.

Hello,
fine installation guide!
I installed my TopGun exactly like this and it's displayed in the device manager without any problems, just like shown in your video. Nevertheless, it's not recognized in the TopGun Panel.
Under Windows XP 32-Bit, everything works perfect, even the Panel.
But okay, in games like Area 51, I only need the trigger. In all the games which need a second button to reload or fire grenades or something like that, I use the "B"-button instead of the "C"-Button. It's a lot of fun, so it shouldn't be a problem for me.

Hi,
I recently bought a brand new Topgun III and have tried setting up up on my win XP Mame cabinet and my Win7 High end game PC.
Both times i have had no luck getting the panel to recognize the button presses or the cursor to move when i move the gun.
the gun goes into calibration mode OK but nothing else happens. the driver has successfully installed HID mini etc etc from the drivers i have downloaded (fixed win 7 digital signature problem.)
Please help, we design arcade cabinets for sale and really want to start selling them with 2 topguns on each machine, but need to be sure they work ok.
Many thanks Owen.

Time Crisis 1 and Point Blank 2 are GunCon compatible games. EMS TopGun III could only support GunCon2 compatible games (e.g. Time Crisis 2/3)

i) Connect the cable of the infrared LEDs to any USB port or XBOX ™ console, with the "Y-shape cable" provided. User may provide power with any common AC to USB adaptor. ii) User may consider to provide power with an "AC – DC power transformer" (not included in the package) Requirements : 600mA or above, 5V Couple of questions. Common AC to usb adapter. What is considered common for a power adapter in the usa? ok next question. AC - DC power transformer. Requirements 600ma or above to 5v. Can't seem to find any on ebay for USA or anywhere else on the internet. UK there very common on ebay. So it looks like I will have to go with a AC USB adapter. Is the end on the Y-shape cable male or female usb?

Hello. I just ordered top gun 3 for use with my ps2. I haven't got it yet. Are there any adapters so I can plug it in to the controller port to play non gun on 2 compatible games? Thank you.

No. On PS2, TopGun could only support GunCon2 compatible games.
