i did what you said,  i removed the mame module, now i do see the roms and they do play, however i cannot get them to rotate to play vertical.  I saw the rotate option in the atomic manager, but when i select it it just makes my computer hang on a black screen.  how do i get it rotated?

Atomic doesn't rotate ROM for you , it is a MAME Setup not a Atomic one.

What you can do :

in the Default Emulator field on the folder tab , just behing the name of the .Exe put  : -autoror  (or -autorol)

ex:
c:\mame\mame.exe -autoror

this way assume that all your game are vertical.

you can do the same thing by creating or editing a MAME.INI file in the mame folder. and Putting :


--- Code: ---autoror  1

--- End code ---

inside.


if Autoror doesn't work for you , you can try  with ror, rol , autorol, autoror  .

If only few game are vertical and other horizontal.

create an INI folder  under the MAME Folder.

And for each game you want vertical create a INI file in the INI Folder, called  <romname>.ini  and put

--- Code: ---autoror  1

--- End code ---


Rotation option on the Front End, are just for the Front Itself.  It should not hang.  What resolution you used?

I tried 800x600 and 640x480, both hung up

hum Strange.  You tried with the default layout?

Can you do a quick test? Try in a 320x240 (or 200) resolution. (it will be ugly , but just to try).

May be it is a memory issue.  Are you running on 98 or 2000?  Have you other application running?

Can you try with another layout ? (for example the Jeston3 , you can find it on my website).

Thanks

I tried the 320x240 and it worked!  However you could not read the writing on atomic.  I put it back to 640x480 and it hung up.  I am using windows me.  What next?

i tried running Atomic on my other computer, and i thought i set up everything identical, but when i lauch it says something about not having full list.txt and needing to go to atomic config.  not sure whats up there
