Title: Game Rotation Cocktail Frontend Suggestion?
Post by: JLR2000 on April 28, 2002, 12:41:53 pm

Hi Folks-

I'm working on building a cocktail cab and my question is what is the best FE for rotating mame games. I'd like to rotate ALL the games if possible, I've read a little that AdvanceMame can do this, but the documentation is very light.  Can anyone speak to this or point me to a place I can read up on it?  Any user forums anywhere?  Also, does this FE also rotate the FE itself?  I'm hoping there's something to do this in windows already, but I might be hoping for too much.... ???

Thanks for your help...

Actually what yor asking for isn't that hard... for the game rotation, all the fe's support it.... in my case you just add a -rotate 90 to your extra command line options.  As for rotating the fe itself, in emulaxian and emuwzard's case it's smiple.  For raging dragon you need to download portrait software, which will rotate the windows desktop.    

I hope that helps,
