| Cabinet 90% done - hit a critical failure and need help |
| << < (2/11) > >> |
| Comtek:
are you trying to flip every emulator 90 deg and leave them or be able to flip back and forth |
| Bender:
so do you mean your using a mirror in your cab so you need the image reversed on the display? (like space invaders, man I love that look) Have you check the actual LCD menus there is a small chance the monitor could do it internally so video cards don't have that option? I could have sworn I saw that option in there somewhere on one of mine I certainly would have made the same assumption that you did don't get too down there's a solution out there somewhere I gotta believe there is a software program out there that would do it |

It's a single mirror cabinet - so I need ones that can flip in the X-axis. Flipping back and forth doesn't matter. And I can always pull the back off and look straight at the monitor for administrative stuff. Basically, the monitor is facing up into a mirror that's facing out. So...it doesn't need to be rotated - the picture is right side up...just mirrored. (Like if you hold up a paper in the mirror - everythings backwards). I need something that can mirror all of it's output to match that. Be it emulator or front-end. I really...REALLY...don't want to have to buy a CRT to put into this (it won't fit in the mirror config in a case) or rebuild the cab (the monitor would be too close to the player and lose 4-5 inches of distance the mirror provides). Bender, you posted as I was typing this - checked the LCD menu....no go. And all I can find is a $300 (on sale) teleprompter/scaler device. I can't bring my self to spend that much...it's insane when I wouldn't be using the scaler or anything. (And exactly like space invaders...it looks insanely cool. I even have switches to turn on and off the blacklights that light up the art behind the mirror) |
| DillonFoulds:
Why not leave mame unflipped, and flip your entire windows, at a video card level? |
| Bender:
One of the big problems here is the lose termanology. Video card say flip but they really mean rotate and mirror to them means a second duplicate display. What Necro wants to do is flip the x axis of the display. It is not an option on any video card, as far as I can tell My projector does it internally incase you want do rear projection, but that doesn't help :'( |
