  1. [ZEN] BioLab Colorization - Serum v2

    BioLab for Pinball FX.
    I'm a huge fan of Zen studios and their original tables and have decided to give some color love to some of them..   Now I present BioLab.
     
    To use:
    Set Pinball FX to cabinet mode and set use external DMD device. Language English.
     
    Colorization Installation location:
    BioLab "27.CRZ" goes in "vpinmame\altcolor\27" folder
     
    Requires: DMDextensions v2.3.0 +  and setting system environment variable if Visual PinMAME not installed: see https://github.com/freezy/dmd-extensions?tab=readme-ov-file#pinball-fx for  detailed instructions getting dmdext to work with PinballFX
     
    ** While I used frame dumps from both FX and FX3 to create the crz and have created unique sprites to handle both game engines.. 
    It currently appears that dmdext command line (used for FX3 mirroring/memory grabbing to display) DOES NOT support Serum2 colorizations yet (Serum2 crz's just result in a black screen in FX3, but Serum1 and other color formats do appear to work in FX3/2.3.0)..
    Hopefully we can get a fix/patch for dmdext command line / Serum2 use in FX3 in the future **
     
    IF/When dmdext supports Serum2/FX3  - the file can be copied/renamed "biolab.crz" and placed in a "vpinmame\altcolor\biolab" folder
     
    Once running, you should be able to drag the virtual DMDext window to your desired location, right click save position for 27 ( or manually add/edit an entry [27] to your table list in the dmddevice.ini
    You can then set scaletohd=true to enable the HD version for the virtual
    Example: (use your own values)
    [27]
    ;biolab
    virtualdmd left = 0
    virtualdmd top = 0
    virtualdmd width = 1024
    virtualdmd height = 256
    scaletohd = true
     
    If you have a zedmdHD configured, it should detect/use the HD frames..
    *** It likely will need an S3 (esp32) version of zedmdHD ***
    the non-S3 zedmdHD while it works  ( I do need to update my test non-S3 zedmdHD version so it may be better now), but what i tested could not handle the animated fullscreen backgrounds very well. 
    That said, If non-S3 zedmdHD, I recommend setting the scaletohd value to false under [27] in the dmddevice.ini

  2. Bad Cats (Williams 1989) - DMD 64 colors - Serum V2 Format

    Hi,

    I propose this colorization of the excellent Bad Cats table 😚

    Colorization works with the bcats_tcm rom, which you can find here .
     
    Extraordinary work by IdealJoker, who has made a mod of the rom and added many new features, to be discovered from here. 

    You'll discover all the options and features added to the original rom. For the purists out there, the settings for identical operation to the original rom are shown. A little reading 🙂
     
    Important steps :
     
    The bcats_tcm.cRZ file must be placed in the vPinMame\altcolor\bcats_tcm directory. In the table script, replace the value of the variable cGameName (bcats_l5) with bcats_tcm. You must be up to date with vPinMame for the rom to be recognized. Download it here.              Otherwise, there's a really messy method. Rename the rom bcats_tcm.zip to bcats_l5.zip (keeping the name bcats_l5 for the cGameName) and check 'Ignore ROM CRC errors' in vPinMame (F1 during gameplay).
     
    Thanks to :
     
    @zedrummer for his support and the improvements made to the colorization tool 🙏 @Zedixair for for his tests and advices 😉 @CarnyPriest for his help in making this fabulous home rom available. My two accomplices @dtatane & @KRAKEN for sharing this Serum adventure with me 👍 And all the community on Discord (https://discord.gg/eRAQDKSbYM)
      I recommend this fabulous version of the table by the VPW team : 
     
    I also recommend @hauntfreaks's magnificent B2s :
     

    If you'd like to see some of the rules for playing this table, I suggest this rather well-done page : https://www.jeff-z.com/pinball/badcats/rules/rules.html
     
    As usual, I welcome any comments or suggestions you may have to help me improve the colorizing.
     
    Enjoy !

  3. Bugs Bunny Birthday Ball (Bally 1991) - DMD 64 colors - Serum V2 format

    Hi,

    I'm pleased to offer you this second colorization of alphanumeric rom 😚

    The colorization works with the bbnny_l2 rom in English.
     
    The bbnny_l2.cRZ file must be placed in the vPinMame\altcolor\bbnny_l2 directory.

    Thanks to
     
    @zedrummer for his support and the improvements made to the colorization tool 🙏 @hauntfreaks for giving me permission to use the image of his B2S 👍 DarthVito & passion4pins  on the discord for their advice 😉 My two accomplices @dtatane & @KRAKEN for sharing this Serum adventure with me 👍
      I can only recommend the alt B2S offered by @hauntfreaks . Thanks to him
     
     
    I recommend this version of the table : https://vpuniverse.com/files/file/14364-bugs-bunnys-birthday-ball-bally-1991/. Very good job from  @wrd1972 and @bodydump 🤩
     
    As usual, I welcome any comments or suggestions you may have to help me improve the colorizing.
     
    This table isn't very complicated, but it becomes a lot of fun when played by more than one player. The end-of-game bonuses can be amazing: exchange of scores between 2 players, donation of a million to another player, reduction of the score, etc. 😁

    The famous 50 million seems to be accessible only in multi-player mode and on the third ball.
     
    I'm aware that this rom won't necessarily be suitable for B2Ss on which the 2 parts of the DMD are next to each other horizontally. Some colorized frames have a character in the centre of the frame. It will therefore be cut out in these cases.
     
     

    Let's start from the principle that I'm freely proposing the entire project on the Serum Discord (https://discord.gg/Cn9mAkSu) and that I authorise all people of goodwill to make modifications in this sense.
     

     
    Have fun 👍

  4. Diner (Williams 1990) - DMD 64 colors - Serum v2 format

    Hi,

    I'm proud to present this new colorization 😚
     
    Based on an idea by @zedrummer, this is (maybe) the first colorization of an alphanumeric rom. It paves the way for many other roms 😋

    This probably won't be the only version of this colorization because I don't know the table 100%, and because there are bound to be bugs or oversights on my part. Don't hesitate to share your comments or suggestions. 😉
     
    The colorization works with the diner_l4 rom in English.
     
    The diner_l4.cRZ  file must be placed in the vPinMame\altcolor\diner_l4 directory.
     
    V2.0.0 :
         * Automatic shading with Serum v2 for greater legibility.
         * Corrected slowness for PinDMD v3 owners.
     
    Thanks to @zedrummer for his support and the improvements made to the colorization tool.
     
    Thx @hauntfreaks for this cool B2S 👍

    I can't recommend the VPW version enough, which is magnificent (Diner (Williams 1990) VPW Mod).
     
    Have fun 👍

  5. Williams System 4&6 Serum pack

    Alright, time for something a bit different.  Here is an 8-pack 9-pack of Williams System 4 & 6 colorizations in Serum format.  I'm releasing this as a pack because they are very small and all follow the same original DMD layout.
     
    List of tables:
    - Blackout
    - Flash
    - Gorgar
    - Laser Ball (added in v1.01)
    - Phoenix
    - Scorpion
    - Stellar Wars
    - Timewarp
    - Tri Zone
     
    This will change your standard DMD from this:
     
    into something like this:

     
    Each colorization features a different AI generated image per ball and is meant to be used in HD resolution (256x64), although it will work in SD (128x32) but without the pretty pictures.
     
    Once again, this is Serum 2.0 so you need DMDEXT 2.3.0 or newer and will need to add the following at the bottom of your DmdDevice.ini to enable HD for each table (not required if you have HD on for all tables globally).
    ;Blackout [blkou_l1] scalermode = Doubler ;Flash [flash_l1] scalermode = Doubler ;Gorgar [grgar_l1] scalermode = Doubler ;Laser Ball [lzbal_l2] scalermode = Doubler ;Phoenix [phnix_l1] scalermode = Doubler ;Scorpion [scrpn_l1] scalermode = Doubler ;Stellar Wars [stlwr_l2] scalermode = Doubler ;Timewarp [tmwrp_l2] scalermode = Doubler ;Trizone [trizn_l1] scalermode = Doubler  
    Enjoy!

  7. Attack From Mars Serum Colorization

    Attack!
     
    I'm happy to share my Attack From Mars Serum colorization. 
     
    ROM:  afm_113b English
     
    NOTE:  A few people have reported VPX crashing with this colorization but installing DMDEXT v2.2.2 (or higher, when available) apparently solves the issue. Backup your DMDDEVICE.INI before updating!

  8. Back to the Future Pinball - Serum colorization

    I'm happy to present you all with my first serum colorization for one of the greatest movie franchises of all time and my all time favorite - Back to the Future 
     
    The goal was to make the colorization simple, readable (Thanks @ebor!), and fun ! It was fun to make! 
     
    Pair this colorization with your favorite pup pack and/or altsound -
     
    Very special thanks for the serum authors and @zedrummer for guiding me through from start to finish - you know who you are and I'm so grateful! 
     
    This was primarily tested on the  bttf_a27 rom but seems to work with bttf_a28 as well ( just rename it as needed) 
     
    This serum also has high res frames for those that can take advantage of them
     
    Enjoy!
     
    IMPORTANT: you need DMDExt version 2.3.0 to make use of this rom! Download can be found here
    Also, delete ALL of your serum.dll files in your vpinmame folder! DMDExt now has Serum integrated from the get go. 
    IMPORTANT 2: Unsure how to install the newer version? Please follow this guide by the creator of Serum:

  9. GoldenEye SERUM colorization

    I am happy to share my GoldenEye ROM colorization in SERUM format.  This was a relatively quick one with around 115 hours put into it, 2450 frames and around 115 sprites.  A huge thanks goes out to @PastorLUL for importing the few movie sequences and also to the fine folks on the Serum Discord.  😘
     
    This is a Serum v2 colorization, so you need DMDEXT 2.3.0 at a minimum. 
    I've seen two or three early testers report that Defender was detecting a virus but I've run the file through the 60+ online antivirus scanners and the file is clean, so it's a false positive.
     
     
    As always, if you see that I missed anything, please let me know and if you can dump the missing frames, that is a HUGE help.
     
    Enjoy!

    Hi,
     
    I offer you the Serumized™ conversion of the CFTBL colorization in black and white to stick as well as possible to this superb table of @SG1bsoN.
    I've always loved this version of the table 😍

    IMPORTANT: you need DMDExt version 2.3.0 to make use of this rom! Download can be found here.
    Also, delete ALL of your serum.dll files in your vpinmame folder! DMDExt now has Serum integrated from the get go.
    IMPORTANT 2: Unsure how to install the newer version? Please follow this guide by the creator of Serum:
     
     
    This colorization is more like a POC. @zedrummer has included a feature that transforms the entire project into B&W with a single click. I think it's just fantastic 🤩

  12. Ghostbusters (Stern 2016) - Serum 64 colors

    After "Dr. Who", I thought about working with something simple and that wouldn't put a strain on my old neurons, so I thought: Surely there isn't a Rom more complicated than "Doctor Who"... and how wrong I was. However, here you have the result of 7 months of work to color this rom from scratch.
     
    Since it has some random components (like capture ghosts), I can't guarantee it's 100% complete, but it's close. Although I can assure you that it is totally playable, so if you have the possibility of uploading the errors you find, I will appreciate it if you share them so that I can correct them later.
     
    - The latest SERUM library is required for its operation.
     
    - There have been cases where PuP has stopped working with this .crz, this is because the latest versions of the dmddevicepup.dll library at this moment do not work correctly with .crz files. Therefore, in order to run this table with PUP, the original version that accompanies the original VPinSpa must be maintained, or failing that, a version of dmddevicepup.dll prior to or equal to 1.20.1.1 from 2018. We would hope solved the issue soon.

    Taking into account that this table is 32 bits, this requires that the installation of VpinSpa be carried out in its own folder and not in VPinMame itself in order to keep the PUP updated in the rest of the tables.
     
    I hope you like it and do not hesitate to share your impressions.
     
    NOTE: Some users have reported virus messages when downloading the 7z compressed version. It is changed to a zip version to see if the error disappears, since the SERUM files are not executable and therefore it does not make sense for them to become contaminated with viruses. And my work computers are all clean of viruses and malware.

  13. Playboy (Stern 2002) Serum Colorization

    ⚠️ADULT CONTENT⚠️
    Bunnies (and breasts)...  Dropping a beta colorization today (for the bunnies 😜),  Happy Easter All.. 
    * while it was colored tastefully (IMO), there is nudity that will be show even if adult mode is turned off in the options, as I use playmate images for backgrounds *
    * Adult mode will still change what sequences get shown in there original format (but colored) * 
     
    Donation/Beer me: (if you feel like it)  https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Boroka1 
     
    Colorization Installation:
    The playboys.crz will go into your "/altcolor/playboys"   folder within VpinMame
     
    Requires: DMDExtensions V 2.2.1 
    [and]
    Libserum >= 1.6.1 https://github.com/zesinger/libserum/releases (for the backgrounds and extra sprite capabilities I've implemented)
    If you are receiving a blank DMD screen.. you will need updates to use this colorization.
     
    While it is pretty solid, I know I am missing some frames (every sequence can slide left->right, Up->down, down-> up) into any other sequence and be triggered from what appears to be any frame.
     
    That said,  If you enable dumping..
    Please add any of your dump files to the WIP thread so I can see what I may have missed frame wise, and keep and color said frames, or throw them out if deemed not needed.
     
    Feedback welcome here or in the WIP thread. 
    Thanks

  14. Grease (Original 2023) Serum Colorization - Elvis Re-Imagining

    We go together..  
    A completely custom colorization /re-theme of the "Elvis" rom to go with the Grease 2023 table from @judremy
     
     
    Colorization Installation:
    The grease.crz will go into your "/altcolor/grease"   folder within VpinMame
    You would also want the alias "grease,elvis" in VPMalias.txt
     
    Requires: DMDExtensions V 2.2.1 
    [and]
    Libserum >= 1.6.1 https://github.com/zesinger/libserum/releases (for the backgrounds and extra sprite capabilities I've implemented)
    If you are receiving a blank DMD screen.. you will need updates to use this colorization.
     
    Donation/Beer me: (if you feel like it)  https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Boroka1 
     
    While it should work with any "grease"/elvis table... It is designed to go with the above table.. Judremy and I worked for about a year passing ideas back and forth for the modes and what the display will be showing.
    I put in some extra effort to try to sync display timing events with the music/soundtrack from the PUP (to the best of my ability)
    For example:

  17. Cue Ball Wizard (Gottlieb 1992) - DMD 64 colors - Serum colorization

    Anyone seen my horse?
     
    After almost 3 months of work, I'm proud to present my first Serum colorization, Cue Ball Wizard.  While not the most popular table, I play it regularly and thought it needed a little love.  I tried giving it a Western feel with wooden boards in the few key scenes.  I was looking for a way of giving back to this amazing community that has given so much to me, hope you enjoy!  A huge thanks to @zedrummer for developing the Serum colorization tool and for implementing our (many) requests on the fly.  Also a big shoutout to @dtatane and @ebor for your support and for bouncing ideas.  Please report any issues in the comment section.  Cheers!  🍻

  18. Tron Legacy (Stern 2011) - DMD 64 colors - Serum format - V2.2. Final

    Hi,
     
    Here is a major update for this colorized rom.
     
    All the video sequences have been imported for more realism.
    The arcade scrolling should now be clean.
     
    Special thanks to @zedrummer who developed the file format and the constant improvements of the ColorizingDMD colorization tool. Importing videos of about 1800 frames and several dozen sequences has been greatly facilitated by the new features of the tool.
     
    To work properly, you must use the English rom.

  19. Tron Legacy (Stern 2011) - DMD 64 colors - Serum format

    Hello everyone!
     
    We are very proud to offer you the second serum colorization project!
     
    As you may know, this is a new open source format for DMD colors that will be able to run on virtual DMDs and devices.
     
    We would like to give special thanks to @zedrummer who developed the file format and the tools to use it, as well as @dtatane and @KRAKEN for the often daily exchanges. They too spend hours (even hundreds of hours) coloring and suggesting improvements to the tool!

    PS : We know that we need to fine-tune the scrolling when the ball enters the arcade ☺️
     
    This table is one of my favorites, the Pup-Pack is beautiful, only a colorization of the Rom was missing to have a complete pack 😋
