vectrex orientation
How do I get the vectrex emulator to display vertical on a LCD screen, games work but displays horizontal only.

Re: vectrex orientation
Played around with the vectrex.sh file settings, still doesn't rotate.
stuck horizontal on a vertical monitor.

Probably a Retroarch video setting is wrong, I'll have to take a look at it... don't think I've actually put Vectrex on a vert build yet, I may not have done a config for it.
If you want to try fixing it in Retroarchs menus press 'f1' or 'start+b6' while a game is running to open RAs menus. You'll probably need to back out of the quick menu and goto settings>video (I may be wrong, this is off the top of my head).

Re: vectrex orientation
Yes that did it, retroarch video settings display rotate 270 degrees, and aspect ratio from 1:1 to 4:3 displays nice.
Although the overlay is not rotated with the game, any ideas fixing this?
Do I have to make a copy of the image file and change it in photo editor or something?

Re: vectrex orientation
Right, I have rotated the .png files of overlays 90 degrees and re-saved them, in paint, all good, displays nice.
A pain doing all png files, probably a config edit somewhere, but I couldn't find where.

Re: vectrex orientation
Glad you figured it out.
Would you mind uploading the rotated pngs somewhere? They are probably useful for others too.
