      @strells said in Auto aspect ratio for vertical games?:

      I left integer scale turned off so that the image, whether vertical or landscape, reaches the edge of my Arcade1Up 17

      Just be aware that not enabling integer scaling is not recommended because it will cause gfx issues due to bad nearest rounding, those gfx issues being more or less noticeable depending on the context.

      Great. I did not know that. Thank you for the heads up!

      @romstar said in What's the correct aspect ratio I should be using as a config for a HAPP / VISION PRO 19" LCD arcade monitor for MAME Horizontal / Vertical games:

      I changed the bottom line to mame2003_tate_mode = "enabled" which ultimately resolved my issue. now The vertical game is finally displaying the way it should on my HAPP Vision pro monitor mounted vertical !! At some point I'd like to build a vertical only list of games and have the menu / retropi running exclusively in vertical mode.

      I knew it would change your life. I would not recommend trying to make the whole of retropie itself work in vertical mode yet, though. I stayed with my rotating monitor because rotating emulationstation causes performance issues. I believe it also became more difficult to rotate emulationstation on the Pi4 because the option was deprecated. I stayed with my Pi3b for my vertical MAME games for that reason and hope that a good solution for a fully vertical system presents itself later.

      @jgeibel My pleasure. Some years ago, I used AM on my Linux PC and laptop before I got my Pi 3b and discovered RetroPie, which seduced me with its all-in-one-package simplicity.

      But I still have my MAME 0.185 setup with AM, and I'll never forget this my "first love" among emulation frontends with its unparalleled customisability. 😍

      @dankcushions thanks mate - i did see the comment on the verbose logs.
      In learning about how to trigger them and retrieve them, I went into the RetroPie configuration editor and then notice there was an Aspec ratio setting. I set this to 4:3 and everything is perfect now.

      Glad Im solved it and thanks for your time.

      Excellent forum by the way

      So you were right I only need the rotation part and then needed to set the aspec ratio.
      video_allow_rotate = true
      video_rotation = 3

      This was the magic line:-
      aspect_ratio_index = "0"

      @mitu good point. So one can use rotation of 90 or 270 degrees BUT the width and height is not exchanged on my proposed setup. Thus my hint only works flawless for 180 degree screen rotate installations.

      Is there a way to use this marquee feature and send it to the 2nd HDMI output on the PI 4? Like Hyper Marquee on a PC based Hyperspin setup?

      Damn, I read the whole thing but didn't check the "important links".
      Thanks a lot @EctoOne, I was completely lost.
      I will check with another font.

      @caver01 Thanks for responding!

      caver01 "It does beg the question, so I will write it before someone else does: why not consider the libretro version of mame4all for those titles that require the bezel, since most of the work has been done for you?"

      My reasons for staying with mame4all are:

      I have a known good working set for mame4all The set works great on a non-OC'ed RaspberryPi 3 I haven't managed to get any of the libretro settings to correspond to my default old iPac2. A major issue for me. I don't like to have to spend hours re-configuring if I can help it. I like majority of the roms on my arcade cab to be listed under one menu. I know that you can use the arcade folder but lets face it re-configuring 800+ roms one at a time to work with the best emulator is a pain when mame4all just works.

      That is how my mind deals with it. I would love to use the Libretro set but I haven't been able to get the key mappings right.

      I was hoping that there would be a default bezel that mame4all could see and know to auto use it but I didd't think that there would be something so simple.

      Thanks again!

      I found one! A friend asked me for a seperare Tate-Card to switch to when using his Tate-Display. Simply use the Arcade-Sytem instead of seperate Mame and FBA-Systems. Enter a game with Mame2003-core, activate rotation and save the system configuration file (not game or core override!). Done. The rotation setting will also apply to all FBA-games.

      @rkoster said in New kind of bartop... Arcade Vertical:

      @nasp2000 @caver01 I made a hacked version of Metapixel that is vertical, for my little cab (it's an iCade with a Pi in it, I should do a build thread).

      Yes, please do! Also, have you shared your theme? Might be that others could use it or take it as a basis for further development.
