I've been using AdvanceMenuPlus in my cab for a very long time and I'm looking to try out something new, and
also trying to stay up to date as the program hasn't been updated since 2016.
I have a cabinet with a modular panel and a rotating monitor so there's a few unique things I need to have.
Hoping the hivemind can help me find one with some (for me) necessary options:
- works horizontal or vertically and can be swapped between H/V based on key/button input
- auto rotate mame/hbmame when launching based frontend orientation
- runs and looks ok at low resolution (640x480), I have an arcade monitor
- cycle between different emulators with key/button input, currently just 3
- background audio
- audio per game when hi-lighted
- Assigning games to categories I can switch on. I currently combine 2 different things into single category entries
The 2 categories I lump the games into is Orientation and Control scheme so I end up with entries like Vertical - 2 way joystick.
- ability to remap frontend controls, including chording
- can turn off the machine or launch a script with a button combo (I currently do that by having a separate "emulator" in AdvanceMenu with 1 entry which shuts things down)
free or $$ is fine
any ideas appreciated!
