Onscreen Gear Shifter Visibility Options

[Red732]

Does anyone know how to remove the onscreen gear selection from games like Pole Position? I’ve seen it before, but I can’t remember where the config is.

@Red732 if it's an option it will either be here: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/lr-mame2003/#service-menu or here: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/lr-mame2003/#dip-switches

(you don't say what emulator you're using so i'm guessing)

Weird that I was just playing with this on Monday...

Complimenting what @dankcushions provided, and using Pole Position with any version of MAME other than 2003-plus:

• Hit TAB on a keyboard to toggle the MAME menu
• Select Video Options

Then, depending on which version of MAME you're using:

For lr-mame2003

• Select Dip Switches
• Set "Display Shift" from On to Off

For lr-mame2010 - lr-mame2016:

• Select either "Standard (4:3) or Pixel Aspect (8:7)

For lr-mame 0.222 and below:

• Select one of the "Screen 0" options instead of the default "Shifter-R" option.

For lr-mame newer than 0.222:

• Select "Screen #0"
• Then select one of the "Screen 0" options instead of the default "Shifter-R" option.

For the bleeding edge versions of lr-mame, there are some newer video options that allow the shifter to be off the screen as another option.
