Title: Vertical Emulators & Daphne question
Post by: ark_ader on May 13, 2007, 07:10:48 pm

Hi,

Is there a list of emulators for DOS that will handle vertical orientation within its settings?

I'm looking for a NES, PCENGINE, SEGA GENESIS Emu Etc.  That will run on native DOS for a P120.

Not asking a lot am I?  ;D

I want to invoke ArcadeOS with these emulators, but the emulator must be able to rotate the display like Mame does.

Also has anyone managed to get Daphne running on a Celeron 333 with a Mpeg1 Image with NT5?

Thanks!

Ok I got Daphne funning full screen and sound (very playable in fact) on a P2 333 laptop.

My Dragon's Lair Sub Mini Bartop just got a little bit closer to reality....

But I need some help on emulators that can natively or with help, display in vertical orientation.

Arcade OS displays the menu fine but I need emulators like mame than can go vertical.

Any ideas?

you can try MESS. I dunno, if the ATARI, NES, SNES etc... are fully working/playable. Been a while since I touch the MESS  ;D

I play MESS a lot and Atart2600 and NES play like they are in great shape and the MESS emulator behaves just like MAME does and is ideal for vertical monitors.  Not sure what kind of shape SNES is in but I know they were working on it a lot.  Don't trust the spec sheet on all the emulators in MESS as it has not been updated in a while and some have made huge improvements.
