How to enable Horizontal stretch setting to all games in MAME via Hyperspin?

Recommended Posts

Hyperspin is working great.  I can open the game up in MAME and i go to sliders and then change the horizontal stretch to .0932.  I would like that setting to be applied to all games.  I hear that maybe horizont.ini could help but not sure what to include in it for mame to apply it all around.  any suggestions on what to include in that ini?

Put the setting on your horizont.ini file in your mame/ini folder

 

MAME has a internal INI processing hierarchy order.  Last file/item to be processed wins.  (you can have individual game.ini files too, but I forget where they fall in the stack...)

 

mame.ini
vertical.ini (for games with vertical monitor orientation)
horizont.ini (for games with horizontal monitor orientation)
vector.ini (for vector games only)
<command line arguments>  
 
Files/items are processed top to bottom.  I think all the INI files have to be in the mame/ini folder for this to work too.  So if your mame.ini file is in the mame root, it'll trip things up.  After the MAME.INI, each file can have just a subset of options - you don't need a full config file.
 
Keep in mind since RocketLaucher (formally RocketLauncher) uses command line arguments to pass settings to MAME, which will override the processing of some settings.  Basically, test outside of hyperspin / launcher to see if the setting is working as intended.

thanks. unfort the setting I'm looking for (horiz stretch) is not in there.  I found it in my cfg files for each game though.  Not sure if I can translate that to the ini - actually just tried doesn't work.  Might need to create a cfg per game.
