Laseroid - Doujin that I noticed supports TATE. Question

Post by indstr »

So I saw this on shootthecore the other day...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIIzQcy2gfw

And after I loaded it up, I noticed it had a perfect 3:4 aspect ratio, so I said what the hell, I'll tate my monitor and NVrotate it and see what happens when I load this thing up.

Surprisingly enough, it actually did load in TATE mode with the correct aspect (most other doujin's I've tried still load horizontally even with nvrotate on)

The problem is though, that hardware acceleration is usually off using nvrotate, and this is no exception..

Meaning, it fills up the whole screen and looks great, but the framerate is completely crap.

:(

Any ideas?

Edit: No idea why the youtube video is stretched horizontally, but despite that, the game IS in 3:4 aspect when you load it up, yoko or tate.

Do not use NVrotate. Just keep your windows horizontal, press F2 on main screen and select screen mode there.

EDIT: Youtube video is stretched because that's what Youtube does to all tate videos. They had option to reset aspect ratio but they removed it for some reason.
