## Link to GitHub Issue, if one exists n/a ## Description of change Add `SDVX Landscape Mode` option, allowing you to play SDVX in landscape monitor orientation, with black borders on left and right - similar to how EAC does it. This is meant to be an alternative to what people do today, which is launching in windowed mode. By default, with just `-sdvxlandscape` enabled, EG will launch at 1920x1080 (transposed from the original 1080x1920 resolution). It is possible to combine with `-forceres` to launch at higher resolutions. At some point though, when rendering at large resolutions past 1440p, at some point scaling may break due to #276. Disabled on 32-bit SDVX since dx9 `CreateDeviceEx` call is required; `CreateDevice` won't work. For the same reason this isn't being made a generic option for museca/rb/etc. In theory you can supply `-sdvxlandscape` to games like IIDX and play landscape games in portrait mode, although again, scaling my break due to #276. Also, add new options (bottomleft/right) for subscreen overlay position so that they don't overlap with the main screen in landscape mode. ## Compiling 🙂 ## Testing Tested a couple versions of VW and EG.

spice2x
Overview
spice2x is a continuation of SpiceTools project. Original development of SpiceTools has stalled in 2022; spice2x is led by a new group of developers.
spice2x team does not provide any tools to circumvent software copy protection, nor distribute any copyright-protected game data.
How do I set up game data & start playing?
By policy,
- we do NOT provide links on where to acquire game data
- we do NOT provide tools or instructions on decrypting data
- we do NOT provide guides on setting up & basic troubleshooting
please do not ask for these, as it will never happen here.
Submitting to the Issue Tracker
Please file bugs if you find them! If you just complain about something in Discord servers, we can't see them, so they'll never be fixed.
Rules for filing a new issue or adding comments to existing issues in the tracker:
- Check the known issues page first before reporting a new issue. If you have some new information or workarounds for a known issue, you can file a documentation bug as well.
- Use the search function and see if there is an existing issue.
- This is not the place to obtain a guide or receive basic troubleshooting.
- Don't file a bug demanding game XYZ to be supported.
- Do not upload game data - any part of it, XML files included!
- Do not mention or link to external websites that distribute game data!
- Do not link to external websites that provide guides on how to run games!
New GitHub accounts are prevented from creating new issues to prevent spam. Maintainers of this project reserve the right to close or delete any issues that violate the rules above, or any low effort issues. If you ask for very basic troubleshooting help with setting up a game, we'll just delete them without warning.
Contributing
We encourage the community to submit bugs and suggestions via the issue tracker, and to contribute code changes by opening pull requests
If you want to resolve any reported (or not reported) bugs, implement features, add support for new games, or fix a known issue - feel free to reach out via the Issue tracker or by opening a Pull Request. All submitted code is assumed to be GPLv3 compliant.
We explicitly do NOT have a Discord server for dicussions - we try to do everything out in the open on this GitHub repo. That being said we haven't opened a Discussions tab here because we know it's going to be immediately filled with support requests.
Please see CONTRIBUTING page for a full list of guidelines when submitting code.
