Title: hardware rotation problems
Post by: kcoleman on December 28, 2004, 07:34:13 pm

I am experimenting with hardware rotation and when I rotate the monitor my winxp desktop looks great but when I start up a horizontal game the game looks very narrow and stretched vertically.  The game spans the entire screen from top to bottom but is very narrow horizontally, it only fills about half the screen.  Is this the nature of the beast or are there ways to adjust this.  Thanks

Use the -keepaspect comand.  It will keep it the same size.  You have to say -nohardwarestretch too or it will continue to pull it vertically.  "Long live the vertical monitor cab" . -Max
