It is as i explained above

i do not think you did what i explained though since you started mention tables folder etc?

there are no tables folders in the registry

 

Default (applies to ALL ROMS unless the ROMS individual entry says different) Highlighted

No table names here, only ROM names, and no folders here.

 

In default create reg DWORD ror (or rol if you roll left)

value is decimal 1

 

now all VPM ROM displays will rotate

this has 0 effect on freezy's display, freezys does not rotate

Hi. Sorry I know it's hard to explain things when typing sometimes. I didn't mean a Tables folder in the registry. I meant I was toying with Ace Ventura and I couldn't find it listed in Registry where you mentioned (above). It's located in a Tables folder in VPX folder with a bunch of other tables. I did find one in the Registry folder called Alienstar and edited ror and it did rotate the dmd. However, when I created that same ror in Default, it doesn't appear to have affected the other tables (at least the ones that I've checked). It is as you mentioned DWORD (I think there's a 32 after) and ror set to 1. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. 

 

Is there a universal setting for the script method that will do all tables btw?

table script command

controller.Games(cGameName).Settings.Value("ror") = 1

Registry

 

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Freeware\Visual PinMame\default]
"ror"=dword:00000001
"rol"=dword:00000000
"autoror"=dword:00000000
"autorol"=dword:00000000
"flipx"=dword:00000000
"flipy"=dword:00000000
 

If you feel the need to empty your wallet in my direction, i don't have any way to receive it anyways

"autorol"=dword:00000000
"flipx"=dword:00000000
"flipy"=dword:00000000
 

 

So for the script command, that has to be entered for every table individually?

 

As for regedit (I can't figure out how to paste photos here, sorry), but that's where I created the new entry -  [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Freeware\Visual PinMame\default]

 

a box came up called DWORD (32-bit) Value

value name ror

Value data 1

Base Hexidecimal is checked

 

I've been checking tables, and the dmd with my score is not rotated. If I use the script command on each table, that works, but that's incredibly time consuming.

Ive tried both methods but for some reason some tables like godzilla and black knight 2000 the dmd turns into a blank black square. I also have an issue with moving dmd to a second screen and it not saving settings. Also some tables dont allow the dmd to be moved so i cant do anything with them (like attack from mars) which is annoying
