Rotate a specific Cocktail wheel in Hyperspin

[vwalbridge]

I looked up this old thread:

http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?37296-Calling-script-to-rotate-monitor-when-custom-wheel-activates-closes

This old thread seemed to have the best/closest answer to what I'm looking for. I was hoping someone could help me out.

I already built a vertical hyperspin cab using jeepguy81's vertical themes. It was dedicated to vertical games only so that was pretty easy. However, I'm building a 2nd arcade cab and this cab will also have a vertical monitor. But, I wanted to be able to have horizontal games and vertical games on the same cab. (yes, I'm ok with how horizontal games will look on a vertical monitor) This would normally not be a big deal, but I want to use horizontal main wheel themes and a custom vertical wheel theme on the same cab.

So my goal is this:

I want to have my monitor rotate 90 degrees but only when I select my custom vertical "cocktail" wheel in hyperspin. All other wheels (NES, SNES, etc) will remain default. And of course, have the screen rotate back after leaving the vertical "cocktail" wheel. This way I can leave all my themes intact and the monitor will already be rotated the correct direction when I open a vertical game.

I played around with using irotate in the ahk file in the modules directory to rotate the screen upon loading an emulator but that only solves 1/2 the problem. I still need my vertical wheel (jeepguys themes) to be on a vertical screen. (Also Jeepguy's vertical cocktail themes are already pre-rotated...that's what makes this tricky)

I hope this all makes sense. Many people out there have solved this problem but not quite the same way I'm trying to solve it.

Really appreciate any help you can offer!

I'm looking for jeepguys cocktail theme (I haven't found it in the download section... is it in the FTP only?  I haven't hooked it up in years)

 

And ever get the wheel looking right?  

 

I just finished a cocktail table hardware, and trying to get the software working now.  Everything I'm finding is super old and links are dead.

 

Thanks
