VerticalAspect and Super Resolutions
« on: April 03, 2015, 10:26:55 am »
Hi

I can't seem to get the VertcalAspect setting in VMMaker.ini to work. No matter what I set it to, the vertical games still display at 4:3 ratio in groovyMAME. Does this setting not work with Super Resolutions?

I've also tried toggling the keepaspect setting in mame.ini but no joy. Is there another setting I need to change?

Thanks.

The "vertical aspect" option in vmmaker.ini is only meant for the normal resolution. If you're using super resolutions then just enter a custom aspect ratio for the -aspect option in mame.ini (or better, create an *empty* text file named "vertical.ini" and add the desired aspect option inside).
Important note: posts reporting GM issues without a log will be IGNORED.
Steps to create a log:
 - From command line, run: groovymame.exe -v romname >romname.txt
 - Attach resulting romname.txt file to your post, instead of pasting it.
