HI I reinstalled a cab trying to start from scratch since a lot didn't work,and was in the French language, what I don't understand.

I installed the latest baller installer, everything seems fine but every time after loading a game, the play field goes small and is turned 90 degrees, I think I checked everything, but I'm probably missing something?

Not sure how to share pictures of it here

 

Regards

 

Peter

Sounds like your are in VPX "window" mode. Hit F12 and then right flipper key to get into the Point of view menu. You can then hit the plunger key to automatically fit the table to your screen size and then fine adjust. Hit Start button to save.
If this doesn't work correctly you need to go into the Video options and provide your screen dimensions in the Cabinet Layout fields (right hand side of the dialogue)

Thank you so much that cabinet layout suggestion did the trick filling up the whole screen but it is still rotated 90 degrees after the table had load, while during loading and scrolling the wheel it is in the right position

Is your playfield monitor in landscape or portrait mode?

Perhaps you can supply photos of the correct orientation when in front end and rotated orientation when in VPX? Currently nothing springs to mind.
