Title: Upgraded from 0.239 to 0.242 and low res VERTICAL games are stretched on horizo
Post by: eewoke on April 15, 2022, 05:10:16 pm

Hi,

I use GM on a Hantarex polostar 25, windows 10 and an ATI R7 360 videocard using super resolutions. All was running like a charm. But feom GM version 0.239 I updated to version 0.242 and suddenly the vertical games on my horizontal monitor with low resolutions are stretched(like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man). I rolled back and found out this is the case from version 0.240 and onwards. I use vertical.ini for monitor 15_25_31 in case that matters.

What might cause the problem? Any idea? Did Mame.ini change?

Any help is appreciated as I could not solve it myself.

Hi,
Test applying intoverscan. In my case, i set intoverscan 1 on .ini file, but you can pass this an argument.

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately this is not the solution. I am still struggling. Very strange that the latest 3 GM versions have this problem on my system.

eewoke,

Please get me a log of a game that shows the problem. This must be caused but the new scaling method in recent versions.
