How to set virtualDMD screen (external DMD option) for every game

Recommended Posts

Not sure right section (maybe Pin2DMD) but I have installed the freezy dmddevice.dll and can use the external DMD.  Problem is it's in the wrong section of the screen (need it on display 3).  How do I move that auto for each game instead of just 1 (by writing it in the dmddevice.ini).  Looking for the quickest way.

Also - any idea why vpx might crash upon initial startup when playing games config to show external?  They work fine if vpx loads a game and then quit and then load external DMD game.

Sorry to reply to late. I've added support for reading the DMD position from VPM's registry, so if you have positioned the DMD in VPM, dmdext's DLL will be able to reuse those values. Will be in the next release coming up the next few days.

did this get released yet?

 

EDIT _ looks like there is an update on the website to include:

 

  • useregistry - If true, read the virtual DMD position from VPM's registry.

But I don't see it in the actual download package (that line is not there).

Having same problem with VPX:

ver 10.4.0 rev 3235, DMD ext 1.6 or 1.52

Steps to reproduce:

Set "twenty4_150" Rom to use DMD/Display window

Launch VPX

Open 24 table and play.

Esc-Quit Table

close table

Set "twenty4_150" Rom to use external DMD

Open 24 table and play.

Exit out of VPX

Run VPX

Open 24 Table

witness VirtualDMD lock up during rom initialization
