About This File

B2S Designer

 

A WYSIWYG application to create 'directB2S' backglasses.

 

What Stefan Wuehr ('Herweh') started in 2012 continues here.

 

Documentation is included in the download zip file as a htmldoc file, but can also be found online here

 

The B2S.Server wiki can be found here.

For general installation and version info please click here.

When you've made your first steps in the designer here are some maybe very helpful tips.

 

Have fun and please do not forget to like and review..., what is important for content creators (tables, backglasses, DMD colorization?)...
... is as important for us writing the tool-set

What's New in Version v2.1.0   See changelog

Released

  • Increased Max ZOrder to 19 from 9 by jonesyUK
  • Fixed bug (Issue #13) thanks funjup for the fix!
    Adding a new bulb frame would sometimes calculate it's location having negative coordinates, placing it off the workspace, especially if zoomed in or having a large frame duplicated.
    Now:
        if a frame is selected (in focus), it will duplicate it with a small shift (20 pixels) so can easily be grabbed, and can be counted if duplicating multiples.
        if a frame was recently selected but no longer in focus, the new frame will be placed with a certain offset (20%) from the top left corner of the user's viewing window. This way a new frame is always placed within the
                      user's working area as they move around the canvas when zoomed in.
        if no previous frame was selected to duplicate, the default Size is now 200x100px (was 300x100).

All of the work you all have put into this is appreciated!

Do people think these programs just pop out of thin air?

And update themselves?

Thank you all, and keep up the great work!

Carry on.

Response from the author:

yes, weird. You see the amount of reviews and comments on the toolset compared to the "fancy" stuff. Without the toolset... no "fancy" stuff ;)

 

Thanks for your support @xenonph!

B2S Designer is a fantastic tool for anyone looking to create custom backglasses . I’ve found it rather easy to use, generally intuitive enough for beginners, but still offers enough depth for more experienced users to experiment and fine-tune their designs.

Thank you for this fantastic tool! There was one older EM table I enjoyed playing but the backglass was unfinished (fortunately for me the vpx script work had already been done). I downloaded your program, found a reasonable BG image and followed your (and other - Wildman's) tutorials. Very quickly, I was able to have a working backglass for my cabinet. Your designer is easy to setup, navigate and learn the basics. Once I had the basics, it was enjoyable to play with simple animations and many of the other features. It was also a lot of fun to see this come to life and work so well on my backglass screen while playing this table.

Response from the author:

Thanks cbpa for the kind words. I just want to tell that even though I "own" the B2S Server & B2S Designer, it is built on the shoulders of others. I took over the B2S system 2 years ago, but I have almost only touched the Server so far. The Designer has only small touches yet. Stefan Wuehr ('Herweh'), did an amazing job back in the days (about 10 years ago)

I really want to test the backglass you have created, can we find it here on VPU?

Just like kudos are encouraged for table artists, please also express your appreciation for this piece of software, and the Backglasses that the artists create with it :)

I have just started messing with B2S creation, and the editor I have now is a bit "glitchy". I can't wait to try this update!

I appreciate the hard work that goes into creating these apps, and hope to get a better grasp on things soon! 

Thank you for the update as well as the helpful links you posted as well!
