  3. More information about "B2S ScreenResIdentifier"

    B2S ScreenResIdentifier

    By jarr3

    B2S ScreenResIdentifier can be used to help setup your B2S Screen Resolutions and screen setup.
     
    What Stefan Wuehr ('Herweh') started in 2012 continues here.
     
    Full documentation is available in the Wiki at https://github.com/vpinball/b2s-backglass/wiki
     
    This is a separate download, but is also part of the B2S Server, if you have already you can ignore downloading this.

    Usage:
    Simple to use. Double click the B2S_ScreenResIdentifier.exe to edit ScreenRes.txt or "drop" any TableName.res file on the B2S_ScreenResIdentifier.exe to edit it.
     
    Move screens around as indicated on each window and once happy click save and a ScreenRes.txt for TableName.res file is created/updated in the same location.
    B2S ScreenResIdentifier reads out the current resolution and scaling of your screen and in case your scaling isn't set to 100% it will turn red. (see screenshot)
     
    The newer versions of B2S Server supports comment lines in the ScreenRes files. Lines starting with "#" is ignored when reading the ScreenRes.txt or TableName.res files.
     
    Now possible to do like this:
       # Playfield Screen resolution width/height
       800
       600
       # Backglass Screen resolution width/height
       800
       600
       ...
     
    If any of your tools do not support them you can ask friendly if someone can update them (PinballX is already updated) or use B2S_ScreenResIdentifier.exe to save without comments (using the checkbox).

  4. More information about "B2S PRO Backglass Designer"

    B2S PRO Backglass Designer

    By Wildman

    Meet the all-new B2S Pro Editor & Designer!
    I’ve spent the last couple of months rebuilding the original B2S Designer into a better, faster, and more powerful program—and taking backglass creation light-years ahead. B2S Pro goes way beyond putting lights on a picture. You can bring your artwork to life with animated GIFs, rotating images, moving snippets, single-ball animations, and complete ball troughs with entry and exit paths. Build working mechanisms with ball physics, boundaries, bumpers, switch zones, launchers, and pivoting objects. Add realistic score reels, rotating score displays, custom speaker grills, and DMD artwork—all from a redesigned interface that puts these tools in your hands.
    You also get more control over how everything comes alive, with Lamp, Solenoid, B2S, and SW triggers across the trigger menus. For the first time in my B2S Pro rebuild, you can use switches to trigger effects, opening up even more ways to connect your backglass to the action in VPX. Masks and cutouts let you work with individual pieces of your artwork, while lighting and animation tools help you build anything from a simple blinking insert to a backglass full of movement.
    And you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. B2S Pro includes a detailed illustrated guide with real examples, alongside the original B2S Help. Preview your backglass and DMD on your configured cabinet screens, test your effects, and fine-tune your creation before taking it into play.
    This is a major advancement in backglass creation and animation, built to give VPX and VR creators more freedom, more control, and far more possibilities. If you’ve used the old Designer, you’re going to have a lot of new toys to play with. Welcome to B2S Pro!
     
     
    B2S Pro Setup & Updater installs B2S Pro Editor & Designer  or updates your existing installation. It guides you through choosing your Visual Pinball, Designer folder with confirmation before replacing existing program files. Use the same setup EXE whenever you need to install or update B2S Pro.

  5. More information about "B2S PRO Server Setup"

    B2S PRO Server Setup

    By Wildman

    B2S Pro Server — Required for B2S Pro Backglasses
    The B2S Pro Server brings your backglass to life while you play in VPX. It handles the lighting, scores, animations, ball physics, and triggers that make everything respond to the game. The old B2S Server does not support the new B2S Pro features—you must update to the B2S Pro Server to use backglasses built with them. It also supports traditional B2S backglasses, It is backwards compatable with the existing DB2S files, so you can keep enjoying your existing collection while adding the new stuff!

  6. More information about "B2S Extractor"

    B2S Extractor

    By supafraud

    This is a tool for extracting images like score reel image sets embedded in directb2s files that might otherwise be inaccessible. It's a simple tool written in python. I made it because I had issues adding DMD images to EM b2s files that used custom score reels. This allows you to extract the non-standard score reel image sets, then reimport them so it doesn't mess up the directb2s file.

  8. B2S Debug

    By Dazz

    If experiencing issues with B2S displaying on incorrect display, this will show you what screen you should use as your display.
    1. Place B2S_Debug in your Tables folder
    2. Run B2S_Debug.exe
    3. Upon hitting ESC a log file called B2SLOG.txt will be created in your Tables folder. The output of this fill will show which screen numbers you should enter into your ScreenRes.txt file for your Backglass screen.
    Example output:
    "------------------------------------------------"
    "\\.\DISPLAY1","   First screen"
    "\\.\DISPLAY5","   Second screen"
    "\\.\DISPLAY6","   Third screen"
    "------------------------------------------------"
