monitor flipping and I-Pac 4 ???

[mvolke1]

My cocktail cab is built, and all the controls are wired up, though not working (my cpu doesn't like the I-Pac or Opti-Pac in the USB...a seperate issue).

My question is on the monitor installation. I have mine installed, centered well,  looks great, but I need to rotate the image so it's facing the side control panel. The image is facing the back of the machine (though installed properly).

I have Windows 2000, but I haven't figured out how to flip the image with the software. I also have the Wells Gardner U3100, and I don't know if there's a way to flip its image with the controls it has.

Another question...I'm using an I-Pac 4. I would like to have it be 4-player, but have the option to make the side control panels work for players 1 and 2 for horizontal games. Is there a way to do that?

Thanks for the help.

If you have an ATI video card this should allow the rotation from the control panel software. If it does not, I might be able to supply a version of the control panel which does.
For the side panels, you could either connect them to the same inputs as the end panels (which does not really require and I-PAC 4 as the I-PAC 2 has enough inputs) or you could wire then up to the player 3 and 4 controls and re-program the I-PAC and/or the Mame controls menu to suit. If you reassigned using the Mame control menu this would allow max flexibility as you could do it on a "per game" basis.

If you wire them up seperatly you could take advantage of MaLa's controller detection if you so desire..

If you use -flipx and -flipy in mame you can get the image to display upside down.
