FAQ

Yes and No. Although you do not need our game collection to make the gun work, we highly recommend getting if you are not technical with light guns.

Our Retro Beast, basically a 1TB Hard Drive is preconfigured to work with our Retro Pistol. It has a one click setup to make plug and play work.

A QR code card linking to our YouTube tutorials will be included in the package and it will also be available in our Discord Server (Only for customers).

Yes. But we do have a size limit. Since the IR sensors are USB wired, the screen size limit will be around 100" (diagonal).

See our chart for a guide.

No. Our gun only works with Windows, Linux and Android OS.

Yes, you may also use a laptop but we recommend using a PC for Retro Beast (1TB). Our system is built for Windows 10/11.

System Minimum Requirements:

CPU:

  • AMD Ryzen or Intel (e.g., Ryzen 5 3600 or Core i5-10400 minimum. 8+ cores like Ryzen 7 5800X or i7-12700K are heavily recommended

GPU:

  • Nvidia (e.g., RTX 2060), AMD (e.g., RX 5700 XT), or Intel (e.g., Arc A770)

RAM:

  • 8 GB minimum / 16 GB recommended

OS:

  • Windows 10/11

Again, if you are technical, yes you can. If not, we can add more games for you.

We have after sales services where we will update our game collection every month. And updates will be available to download in our Discord Server.

We are working in modding games such as COD to name a few. Currently, we have successfully modded Left 4 Dead 2 and is now playable with our gun - every recoil is different for guns.

Don’t worry, this is what we call a "false positive." Windows often shows this alert when it doesn't recognize a new program. Because we use codes/script to automatically set up the gun and your games, Windows sometimes gets confused and thinks it’s a threat.

To keep everything running smoothly, you just need to "exclude" our game folder from your antivirus scans. If you don't, your computer might accidentally delete important files, and the games won't work properly. We provide easy-to-follow tutorials that show you exactly how to do this.

As of now, we can confirm that GUN4IR can coexist with Retro Pistol. Other guns won't be able to.

This is the "secret sauce" that makes the gun recoils when you shoot in the game, and it won't recoil when you are out of ammo. This makes the gun feels realistic.

We are the only ones who have figured out how to make this work for games like Time Crisis 4, Terminator Salvation, Resident Evil, and Left 4 Dead 2. Other sellers can't do this or has the capability to do so.

We have a team of programmers who spend all their time modding these games.

They make sure the gun feels different depending on what you’re using. A pistol will feel snappy, a shotgun will have a much heavier kick and a machine gun will have fast recoil rate.

We want you to feel like you're actually in the arcade!

Yep, a huge one. You might see other people selling guns that look just like ours. They might even buy them from the same factory!

But there is a huge catch: they don’t have our software.

Without our custom program, the gun is basically just a plastic toy. If you buy from them, you won’t be able to actually play the games you see in our videos.

Nope! We guarantee it won't. To make these guns work with modern games, you need special code. Since we wrote the code ourselves, other sellers can't use it. If you buy a "knock-off" version, it will just end up sitting on your shelf because it won't connect to the games properly.
