CTRLR File for Vertical Games

Pages: (1/2) > >>

Hello, I have a 3 sided cocktail and want to set up a ctrlr file so that the vertical games automatically rotate and flip screen for 2 players as well as leave the horizontal games alone.  Is this possible?  I read the Wiki on ctrlr files but did not see anything like this.

Ginsu Victim:

I think you have to make a vertical.ini with the settings in it.

What settings, and how does MAME know it's there?

Ginsu Victim:

It's just like a MAME.INI, except you put only the settings you want to change for the vertical games.

Place it in the INI folder in MAME.

There is nothing in there for cocktail mode on or off... it only does the rotation in the MAME.ini  Is there something that I'm missing?  I would set it for ror 1 and rotate to 0 otherwise I get games that start out to the left when my player one is on the right.  This would work fine, but as I said, there is no option for cocktail mode which has to be enabled in order to flip the screen for player 2.
