Welcome to TruGolf’s rst LightGun shooter game.
To play E6 Wild West, you will need:
A TRUGOLF SIMULATOR TRUGOLF LIGHTGUN

ADJUSTING THE PROJECTED IMAGE
The tracking system requires a white border around the image projected
onscreen. You may need to adjust your projected image to ensure it ts
inside the edges of the physical screen. Use the arrows and corners on this
screen for reference.
Once all four corners t inside the screen, click PROCEED.
NOTE: The projected image can be smaller than the screen, provided the white
border remains visible at all times.
STARTING THE GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME
IMPORTANT: Before launching the game, the LightGun must be connected to
a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port on your computer.
The rst time you start the game, you will need to calibrate the LightGun with
the one-time calibration tool.
IMPORTANT: During the rst few steps of the calibration process, you will
need to interact with items onscreen using touch, the keyboard or a mouse. The
LightGun also functions like a mouse, so it will interfere with your actions. To avoid
this interference, you will need to block the gun sensor, either with your hand or by
placing a cloth over it until the rst few steps of the calibration are completed.

CALCULATING THE IDEAL STANDING POSITION
The ideal position to shoot from is farther from the screen than the standard
“tee position” for golng. If you have a TruGolf Vista simulator, there are presets
available that will auto-ll the “simulator height” eld. If you have a custom
simulator or setup, you need to measure the projected image’s height, and then
enter the measurement manually using your keyboard and mouse.
Once the screen height is entered, press the CALCULATE button.
In this example, the calculation recommends a standing position of 15 feet from
the screen. You may want to mark this position on the oor with tape for future
reference. When this step is complete, click PROCEED.
TESTING YOUR LIGHTGUN CALIBRATION
To conrm that your LightGun is correctly calibrated, carefully aim and shoot
at each of the nine targets. Correct calibration is determined by two factors:
Scope Alignment and Responsiveness.
SCOPE ALIGNMENT
Make sure the LightGun’s crosshairs are aligned
to the iron sights by looking down the sights with
one eye. It should appear like this:
RESPONSIVENESS
As you move the LightGun’s crosshairs around the
screen, they should move quickly and smoothly,
not jump around the screen.
ASSESSMENT SCREEN
Once you have destroyed all nine targets, you will be asked to assess your experience.
• If no changes are needed, click YES, WORKS WELL. This completes the
calibration process and takes you into the game.
• If changes are needed, click NO, NEEDS WORK. This will take you to the
next steps of the calibration process.
5 6

ADJUSTING THE SCOPE ALIGNMENT
Following the on-screen instructions, press and hold the left directional arrow
on the LightGun’s controls for three seconds.
After holding the left arrow for 3 seconds, the crosshairs will lock to the center
of the screen.
With the crosshairs locked to the center of the screen, point the LightGun at the
crosshairs and look down the sights with one eye. Align your sights so it looks
like this:
When the sights are aligned, shoot the gun. This will align the scope correctly.
NOTE: This process can be repeated as many times as you’d like until you are
satised with the alignment.
When nished, click PROCEED.
CALIBRATING FOR DIFFERENT LIGHTING CONDITIONS
The tracking system can be affected by lighting conditions, which fall into
two categories:
• Dark Environment: Very little light surrounding the simulator booth/
area. This is typical for most home installations
• Bright Environment: Other light sources surrounding the simulator
booth/area. This is most common with commercial facility installations
On this screen, you may shoot/select the lighting environment that best
describes your simulator setup.
NOTE: The “Dark Environment” setting is preferable. However, if you nd
that tracking is inconsistent or performs poorly, you may need to re-run the
calibration tool and select “Bright Environment”.
7 8

PROJECTOR BRIGHTNESS CALIBRATION
Projectors’ images have a wide range of brightness. To determine the brightness
of your projector, the LightGun will now function as a Light Meter.
When you click PROCEED, a white screen appears. Keep your LightGun pointed
at the screen for the duration of a 10-second countdown, while it measures the
screen brightness.
CALIBRATION COMPLETE AND SUMMARY SCREEN
After measuring the Screen Brightness, the calibration is complete.
NOTE: It may take up to 10 seconds for the crosshairs to re-engage on this screen.
To nish the calibration process, shoot/click FINISH.

crosshairs will be latched to your gun’s movement.

• Medium (Will Sharpes, Diamondback Jack) has standard-size hit areas
• Hard (Grim Jim, The Deathslinger) has very small hit areas
HIHIGGH NOONH NOON

level you selected (one, two or three stars) determines the speed at which the
three outlaws draw:
• Gunslinger :The outlaw is slow to draw
• Town Sheri : The outlaw draws with average speed
• Ragin’ Inferno : The outlaw is very fast with their quick-draw
PLAYING HIGH NOON
When High Noon starts, the outlaw challenges you. You can then shoot/

QUICK-DRAW GAMEPLAY TIP
If you are having diculty shooting from the hip, you can try holding
the gun ahead of you but aiming slightly below the screen’s bottom
edge instead. When it comes time to draw, simply raise your wrists to
aim at your opponent.
If you are still receive a “Too Early” warning, angle the gun down more to ensure it
does not still see the screen.
We still recommend shooting from the hip for a genuine quick-draw experience, but
this method helps less experienced players get used to the game.
If you nish with one of the top ve scores for a level (and your skill/diculty
level), you can enter your name into the Hall of Fame by shooting the letters/
numbers and then DONE.
To view the High Scores/Hall of Fame, go to the Stage Selection Menu.
In the Hall of Fame, click/shoot the left/right arrows to change the Stage, and
then EASY, MED, HARD buttons to change the Skill/Diculty level. The top ve
scores from each stage and skill/diculty level will be displayed.
NOTE: To clear the list of high scores, go to Options from the Main Screen. Once a
high scores list has been cleared, it cannot be restored.

INSTALLATION TIPS
As a general rule, it is important to install Wild West either from the E6 Product
launcher or from the standalone installer executable from your desktop.
Also, please make sure you have proper user admin privileges before installing
Wild West. Failing to install the game with the proper admin rights will result in
various issues.
My gun is not tracking accurately, or the performance is inconsistent/laggy
• This may be caused by having too much light surrounding the simulator
-If the extra light is unavoidable, re-run the calibration (from the
Options screen, accessible on the Main Screen) and the change
the light settings
• You may not be standing at the recommended distance from the screen
-Typically, you will want to stand much farther back than your
simulator’s tee position
- To determine the correct standing position, re-run the calibration
(from the Options screen, accessible on the Main Screen)
My gun’s scope is misaligned
• You may perform the one-shot scope realignment at any stage of the game
1) Make sure you have re-enabled the crosshairs in the game OPTIONS menu
(if they are currently turned o)
2) Press and hold the left arrow button on the gun’s D-pad for 3 seconds.
3) The crosshairs will now be locked to the center of the screen.
4) Align your gun sights with the crosshairs, and re the gun
5) Your crosshairs should now be aligned with your sights.
• You can also perform this step during the full calibration process, accessible
from the game’s Options Screen.
The game says the gun is disconnected, or I get a gun error when I start up the game
• Make sure your gun is connected to a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port on your computer
(these ports are usually colored either black or blue)
• The gun must be connected to the computer before launching the game
My gun appears to be tracking upside down or backward
• Rebooting the game should resolve this issue

The turf used on some simulators may cause a static electricity
buildup that can aect the LightGun in rare cases. General use
of the LightGun should remain unaected. However, before
connecting or disconnecting the LightGun from the computer,
please ensure you have discharged any static buildup by touching a
grounded metal surface or your PC case beforehand.
