Cheers Dom EDIT: I hereby prohibit uploading, redistributing and repackaging these files! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thalamus Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Not tried it yet, planned to do it this weekend. Looks very good @Rappelbox Thank you. Take your time on this. A project like this is not for everyone, requires a lot of work and I do understand how you feel. There are some idiots in our community, like everywhere else.

Thalamus Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I must admit I forgot to try this release last week. Installed it, but, had so many other things I wanted to do. I will definitely play LOTR this weekend though. And, I see that I've got something to look forward to. I think your color selection looks great !

luvthatapex Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I copied the color files to \vpinmame\altcolor\lotr and launched the game. I was able to get the second DMD but there is no color, just orange like default. Is there some other step I am missing? Using Vpinmame from 2-28-2019 almost latest update and LCD monitor on cabinet (not pin2dmd). Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThanksIn order to get the full color experience you need to install freezys dmddevice.dll from his github But:Use 1.7.1 instead of the newer 1.7.2 as the later has issues with vni coloring.

Same orange dmd virtual screen when launching the game (and of course original dmd screen too). There must me some configuration I am missing. Is there anything to check in the lotr rom setup of vpinmame? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappelbox Posted May 10, 2019 Author Share Posted May 10, 2019 Check “use external dll”uncheck “vpinmame dmd”Restart the tableSetting my in your ini are correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvthatapex Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Check “use external dll” OK uncheck “vpinmame dmd” OK Restart the table OK If I check Colorize DMD then I got 4 colors, but I don't think we want that right? This just uses a predetermined color pallete not the nice colors you chose per frame. Is there a color rom that I need to create? I remember a year ago when I had to convert a stern rom with some program to add the color data. I think this was for ACDC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outhere Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Is there a color rom that I need to create? -- No That is for the Stern sam tables --> https://www.giantbomb.com/stern-sam-board-system/3015-8231/games/ Are your dmddevice files in the VPinMame folder Use F1 during game to change the default for that game Turn off Show DMD and Turn on external DMD Did you try re-starting vp Did you try re-booting the computer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rappelbox Posted May 10, 2019 Author Share Posted May 10, 2019 Your rom needs to be lotr, others won’t work. Also you don’t need to patch anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
