Hi Zsolt
Could I check if it is easy for you to add a new graphics option called 'Render Sideways' which shows the table rotated sideways?
This would be useful for large Android tablet/PCs that have no accelerometer/gyro and which don't allow rotation via an app..
I have a 24" (61cm) giant android tablet PC and Zaccaria pinball looks great on it. It doesn't have a accelerometer/gyro. This is the type of screen:

Here is Zaccaria running in Landscape:
and here I ROTATED the display USING an APPLICATION, but the Acer version of the Android OS intercepts the request and fakes portrait in landscape mode:
A few months back it was possible to rotate the display 90 degress with a rotation application, but unfortunately Acer changed their bespoke version of Android to fake portrait mode instead.
If it is easy to add a 'render sideways' option, then people will be able to build a relatively low-cost mini Virtual Zaccaria Pinball cabinet with these type of Android devices and your application. I think the application would look incredible on a 24" screen in portrait mode. I guess it depends on how your tech does it's rendering?
