  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
I'm using mamehooker to show the marquees and control panels for my mame roms, the problem Im having is there are some roms ie 1943 that rotate my monitor+display in turn changing the values that are already stored in the default.dis causing half the image to disappear. So far I have tried:

Code: [Select]
[Layout]
NumberofImages=4
x=1920
y=0
width=1280
height=1024
image=
[Image1]
x=0
y=0
height=.5
width=1
length=1
image=C:\HyperSpin\Emulators\MAME\marquees\%rpd%.png
keepaspect=1
[Image2]
x=0
y=.5
height=.5
width=1
length=1
image=C:\HyperSpin\Emulators\MAME\Controlp\%rpd%.png
keepaspect=1
[Image3]
x=0
y=0
height=.5
width=1
length=1
image=C:\HyperSpin\Emulators\MAME\Vertmarquees\%rpd%.png
keepaspect=1
[Image4]
x=0
y=.5
height=.5
width=1
length=1
image=C:\HyperSpin\Emulators\MAME\VertControlp\%rpd%.png
keepaspect=1

Entering different values for x=

Any idea how to tell the program to look for different display values according to which rom is selected ?

Got rid of iRotate commands and rotated the screen using mame tab menu for vertical play field roms (didnt know this was possible) therefore display values remain unchanged.

All sorted :)
