Thanks. Someone was able to send it to me... Now running into the same thing with Shrek, World Poker and Wheel of Fortune. I'm not sure what changed, but my roms for these games were working... Now when I check them in PinMAME they say Actual = 0 meaning the filesize in the zip is 0 bytes.

Has there been any changes with Family Guy lately? Been trying to run fg_1200af but getting terminated. I've tried everything I can think of and keep getting same termination error. Even downloaded new rom from Stern and tries, getting same error. Rom name inside of zip matches what PinMAME is expecting.

I received a message from the owners of ColorDMD regarding the use of dumps from ColorDMD for use in Pin2DMD colorization. It was determined long ago that we would not support anything that infringes on ColorDMD. So far they have been really polite regarding our projects. Please; lets not poke the bear any further.

Well, it seems that a full disk format and re-install of Win10, VP, VPM, etc seems to have done the trick. Thanks guys.

I think over the years something may have gotten corrupted... I'm just going to backup my main drive, do a complete format of the OS drive and do a fresh install of everything.

Yes, all test are done directly on the cabinet. It's currently 100f out and I'd be sweating balls out in the garage. Only using network to grab screen captures and verify file locations. There is no log being created in Visual Pinball, Visual Pinball/Tables, VPinMAME.

D:\Visual Pinball D:\Visual Pinball\Tables D:\VPinMAME D:\VPinMAME\VPinMAME.dll D:\VPinMAME\DmdDevice.dll D:\VPinMAME\DmdDevice.ini My Pin2DMD works fine using v2.55 and the supplied dll from Lucky's GIT. I can drop Lucky's dll right into my PinMAME folder, overwrite whatever dll is there and the DMD will work fine. If I drop in any of Freezy's dlls (1.6 or 1.7) they do not work and I've never been able to get them to work in the past. If I run PinMAME Setup.exe, Test a game, ex 24, Start, i see both the PinMAME DMD and Freezy's Virtual DMD, but it closes almost immediately. If I launch a VP table from VPX (any version), the virtual dmd loads and immediately closes and VPX stops responding/freezes/crashes w/no error. PinMAME folder Visual Pinball folder

Am I the only one that runs a multiple drive/partition setup? I have my OS on C drive, and VP/VPM, etc on D. I haven't tested yet, but it could be possible that Freezy's DLL isn't working for me as I have it and VP/VPM on my D drive instead of C?

No log is being created...

dmddevice.ini is posted above. I don't recall which driver I'm using, but I think it's winusb... I'll have to check in the morning.

I was looking for the log earlier, but it looks like a log isn't being created. I am not running from a protected folder and have tried via Pinmame Setup and VP. There is nothing with dmddevice on my C (Windows) drive.

If I simply replace Freezy's DLL with the dmddevice.dll from the Pin2DMD github and everything works fine. I've ensured that I'm running Pin2DMD v2.55 firmware also tried v2.50. Ensured that PinMAME is updated, SAM dll is updated, VPX 10.5, etc. I do have the dmddevice.dll also in. The dll needs to be in these folders in order for these games to work. D:\Visual Pinball\XDMD D:\Visual Pinball\VPinSPA

The only dmddevice.dlls I have are these. None of which are on my OS drive.

PinMAME games will not display on my Pin2DMD when using Freezy's DLL.

I seem to have an issue with Freezy's DLL displaying PinMAME on Pin2DMD. This happened with previous versions as well, but figured I'd try to update to 1.7.0. I'm currently using Pin2DMD firmware 2.55.
