CarnEvil Tutorial: CarnEvil was one of the first Light Gun games out there. It was released by Midway on October 31st, 1998. I like many others have literally spent hours trying to get this game to work with MAME and have continually fallen down the rabbit hole, finding no end. I had reached out to other youtubers that had videos about CarnEvil, but for some reason they were less than willing to help. So after many more hours of trial and error.....I had a breakthrough!!!! I finally was able to get CarnEvil to work with a version of Mame. I have created this video so that anyone else that is out there and has been as frustrated as I will no longer have to wait. I hope this tutorial finds all of you die hard retro fans well and if you have any questions just shoot me a comment.
Happy Hunting

**4-40-22 UPDATE: I am finding that since the MAME Version used in the tutorial is an older version, some people who have newer computers with updated systems like Windows 11 are not able to get the game to work. (Version0179b_64bit must be too antiquated) Unfortunately, using my method seems to only work on older systems. I've only run into a couple people who have had this issue, but if your running into problems this could be your answer. If you have an older system test it on that. Thanks**
So to streamline everything I have placed one link to my website. This link will provide you with all the files that you need.
Mame0179b_64bit (The correct Emulator)
carnevil.zip (The correct ROM) (Contains both: boot.u32 & sound102.u95)
carnevil.chd - (The CHD File)
***IMPORTANT - THE FIREFOX BROWSER DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO DOWNLOAD MY LINK FROM THE WEBSITE PROPERLY - YOU WILL NEED TO USE ANOTHER - THE BEST IS GOOGLE CHROME**
**NOTE SOME BROWSERS WILL UNZIP THE (carnevil.zip) aka:(ROM) PRIOR TO DOWNLOAD, IF THIS HAPPENS YOU MUST TAKE THE UNZIPPED FILES AND REZIP THEM. THE ROM ONLY WORKS AS A ZIP FILE**

****************UPDATE ON USING THE MOUSE AND ADJUSTING SETTINGS********************
THE GAME HAS CERTAIN DEFAULTS FOR THE CONTROLS WHEN IT IS LOADED IN. IT IS BEST TO CALIBRATE YOUR MOUSE TO ACT AS THE TRADITIONAL LIGHT GUN, THAT IS IF YOUR USING A MOUSE TO MOVE THE CROSSHAIRS. ALSO, TO ASSIGN THE MOUSE BUTTONS FOR FIRE AND RELOAD. (ALT - IS THE KEYBOARD RELOAD) HOWEVER, YOU CAN ASSIGN THE KEYS HOWEVER IS BEST FOR YOURSELF.
CHECK OUT MY OTHER SUPPLIMENTAL VIDEO TO LEARN HOW TO DO THIS OR FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS BELOW.
• CarnEvil: How to Calib...
1ST - Go into advanced options and under input options check mouse and uncheck the joystick.
2ND - You have to calibrate the mouse.
When you start the game the screen with "CarnEvil 1.0.3" appears, press F2
This will take you to the Diagnostic Screen.
Navigate using + (up) and - (down)
Highlight : GUN CALIBRATION and press ( F2)
Here you can calibrate the left (green) gun (ie: the mouse)
Follow the directions to get the mouse calibrated as a light gun (The screen will have you move the crosshair to an “X” in the top left corner, once on it fire(in the case of your mouse the right mouse button is your fire button) then the “X” will appear in the lower right corner. Place your crosshair on it and fire/click again. Finally it will have you fire at the center of the screen.
It will default to the right gun, press G three times to go back to the menu.
***If the right light gun calibration does not recognize the “G” key you will have to do the following:
Press Tab: Press Input this Machine: Scroll to P2 - Button 1: Press Enter: Press G: Press Tab to exit***
Now Press “G” 3 times, the menu will reappear, scroll to exit and press F2
Last - You can assign buttons to your own preference by pressing TAB
Scroll to : Input (This Machine) (Assign button by pressing Enter on the field and then hitting the key you want to assign on the keyboard)
Important Keys to assign:
