Title: Touhou Pivot (Tate)
Post by: lmagus on November 03, 2009, 04:44:59 PM
So, seems like this guy posted a screenshot with touhou in Tate mode and no one asked anything about it.. So I did:

And he gave me this URL...

Well, i tested it.. Paste the two files inside MoF, SA or UFO folders (I couldn't get the older games to work).
Run th_pivot_custom.exe and select the degree you want your screen to turn, press OK and run the game by it's original name (vpatch also works) and voil?!

The first option is for image filtering.
The slider adds a zoom to the game.
Third option is for pivot degree.

i have no idea what the two check boxes do.

You get Touhou in Tate mode...

It's awesome! My monitor has pivot mode so I tested it for a few minutes during lunch break, and took some pictures:

AWESOME
:parsee:

Now be careful with the keyboard punching or the monitor might fall over :V

You see the cheap keyboard I have, right?

It's for destroying purposes!

one friend of mine once said:
How do you make your friends know that you're a hardcore gamer? By showing them your television (note: or monitor) in Tate, and your shmups running on them. It works!

Thus, I feel empty as a player after seeing this. I should feel the opposite way, due to someone else having worked to give us such a possibility, but the fact that I don't have such a monitor (and don't want to flip my own old 15" CRT), combined with my usual greed.. *joins the Parsee Team :D*

MoF froze on me when using the app but SA worked perfectly, thanks! I have a big 24'' monitor so seeing the game in tate mode was awesome but distracting haha.

I tried multiple times but it won't work. Except in 90 degrees mode but my monitor flips to the other side.

you can hold alt + arrow keys to make it change degree from inside the game
