Groovymame not rotating games
« on: April 23, 2020, 02:08:17 am »
As the tittle says ,ive setup rotation settings in the mame ini, but launching games and they dont rotate, if i manually use command line, -ror they do start rotated, its like the ini its ignoring the rotation option in the ini file. now some other options are being read by gm,as skip game disclaimer works just fine, thanks for any help.

Should be changed to rotate_r or rotate_l, is that what you want? This change would launch vertical games rotated one way or the other, but leave horizontal ones alone. You may also need to set aspect:

#
# OSD PER-WINDOW VIDEO OPTIONS
#
screen                    auto
aspect                    auto

to 3:4. Only do this if the image goes too far off the sides (sides being relative to normal horizontal orientation of monitor).

I should have said, you may need to make the aspect change in a vertical.ini file, or else it might mess with the aspect of horizontal games as well.

I dont plan to use horizontal games on this setup, thanks sir. by the way, how can i for a certain video mode or resolution to a particular game? i know i can create an ini for each game but what does it need to have inside? thanks in advance.

any sub ini file is just mame.ini with whatever options you want to be different to mame.ini. If the lines are the same as the mame.ini you can leave them out altogether and only include what you want changed.

if you want to force a resolution, use the line called that, i think eg:

#
# OSD PER-WINDOW VIDEO OPTIONS
#
screen                    auto
aspect                    auto
resolution                640x480

That chunk above is just showing you where to find the resolution line. You could make a raiden.ini file containing that single line, if you wanted to.
