Zaccaria Pinball - Setting Up Default Portrait Mode

By Mart

In this guide I will explain how to launch Zaccaria Pinball in Portrait mode.

Very handy for Cabinet users and players who can rotate their monitor.

Setting Up Default Portrait Mode

In Zaccaria Pinball there is a feature to rotate the screen and go from Landscape to Portrait style, this means that the screen will rotate 90 degrees and you will be able to play in Portrait style.

For people who can rotate their screen or have a cabinet, this is a great feature BUT it can be a bit annoying sometimes when you have to rotate the screen everytime.

To always launch in portrait mode there is a Steam launch command you can use.

1. Open Steam and go to Library
2. Right Click on Zaccaria Pinball and click on properties
3. In the general tab click on "Set Launch Options"
4. Enter the following command "-rotate left"

The screen should now rotate to the left when you start the game.

If this is not what you want you can always use the command "-rotate right" to rotate to the other side.

Happy Flipping!

Might be added still in the future, they are aware that people like to see it :)

No, that is true.
That is why until now I had not put it in VPinball.
But seeing that now if you have cabinet options, I installed it in VPinball and surprise, they stayed halfway.
I will expect future updates, but you should keep in mind that for example Pro-Pinball has full cabinet support since its launch (including DMD).
I myself participated in the launch of this game with its advance purchase, paying more than what the game now costs, which I do not regret at all since from the beginning they took into account user requests and the final version It already included full support.

It was never listed on the Store page that Zaccaria would have multi monitor support.
Not a problem, more a feature request.

VictorMan 22 Nov, 2019 @ 3:03am

That is unfeasible.
The VPinball is already configured for Visual Pinball, Pinball FX2, Pinball FX3, Future Pinball, Pro-Pinball, MAME and Pinball Arcade without any problem to choose what you want to show on the second screen and what you want to show on the third screen .
It is Zaccaria Pinball who must solve the problem.
At the moment I have not bought any table and I doubt that it will do so if this is not resolved.

In the cabinet options there is a option called "secondary display" if you set that on you can have a backglass on a second monitor.
But if you want that backglass to display on a specific monitor then you have to change that either in windows or manage your cables differently.

Backglass go to 3rd screen.
How i can move to 2nd screen?

Gotcha. =)

Then you would not need to do so, if it is the case then you can apply this solution.
